I bought a Wii U with Windwaker, Mario 3D,and Monster Hunter. I personally have more fun with the WII U system then I have with the Xbox One and my PS4
@Stoopid_Fool Rockstar can afford to do something like that and they've always been known to give out free swag for 2 reasons. They have a great track record between GTA, Max Payne (i got that shirt:P), and Red Dead so you know that the games going to be an 8.0 to a 9.5. Second, they can afford it and actually know that their making quality so in turn they value the customer more.
This is how I see it. If game companies don't wanna send out review copies in advance then don't expect a full review and full sales potential. I understand that the clock is always ticking and theres deadlines! deadlines! deadlines! but the consumer depends on honest reviews to go out and drop $60 on a game. @baller72 I do agree with the fact that preorders are a hook to get people to buy games before the reviews hit. I hate the fact that they offer "in-game items", a.k.a. free pixels to lure people in. You notice that they don't offer Tshirts, soundtracks, and other tangible items anymore? "Give them a free ninja costume for their avatar that costs us nothing...better than paying Hanes for a Tee Shirt!"
