I pre-ordered a copy of Halo 3 at Gamestop.

(i put 5 dollars down)

That means I get a copy first day, no matter what, right?

They've done this to me before, Ive reserved a game, but when I go to pick it up, they dont have one.

Is it a guarentee I get my copy?

Nope no guarantee unless you actually pay extra for the pre-order. Some shops will charge you 5 bucks but then you are guaranteed to receive your copy on release day.

I don't think it's a guarantee. It's first come first serve. Just hope not too many people ordered it all those months ago :)

It should be. They order one specifically for you pre-order. But they might mess up and sell some of the pre-ordered ones by accident.

All my friends were worried about Halo 2 and preordered, but when I walked into Best Buy they had more than enough copies just sitting on shelves.

Your right about there being more than enough but 81 discs per second is bs. They went Gold on august 29th so lets do the math. 81*60 sec=4860, 4860*60 min=291,000, 291,000*24 hours=6,998,400, 6,998,400*28 days=195,955,200. There for your statement=MASSIVE PHAIL!

:lol: nice one man, I salute you.

I'd personally wait until you get a call for them because it depends how many people are above you on the list

lol at peopel who said its not reserved come on thats the hole point of pre ordering. your guaranteed a copy what they do is when they get their shipment they put aside enough copies for their pre orders and then sell the ones left over so you will definitly have a copy waiting for you
