Should I worry about getting a copy if I'm just going to get the regular version?

Not if you're not getting it at a game specialty store, I don't think.

YEAH i would I talked to my local Gamespot Store and they said that it will be sold out before you know it and that you will have to wait a while to get it. That is if you didn't pre-order it.

Gamestop is just triyng to scam you into preordering because they probably get bonuses for the number of pre-orders they get in a day.

preordering is just a way for advertising n stuff

most GAME stores will have a whole truckfull to be safe they dont sell out and i reckon most places will be open midnight tobring in the profits

REMEMBER THIS

Hardware, like consoles and such, take a while to develop and mass produce, leading to them being hard to find.

SOFTWARE, on the other hand, is very easily mass produced, there is no point to pre ordering. Each disc is made in less than 2 seconds. There will be truckloads, espicially for this game, so you don't have to pre order. That isn't to say EB games will run out, (small store, not a big inventory).

But if you want the special editions you need to pre order it, that stuff runs out fast. But generic game disc? Don't bother.

here's an idea: don't go to gamestop or ebgames to get halo 3. everyone goes there to get it. go to shopko, walmart, or a local video game store.

Why not preorder? It's free and most of the time you can get free stuff with the preorder.

The $60 is I think $5 min for pre-order.
