Do you believe in pre-ordering video games? If yes, on what platform? If it was possible, would you like to pre-order and get your games within 24-48 hours of release?

How about download cards on PSN and Xbox Live? With the likes of Swift offering unlimited downloads on some packages, what do you think about downloading your favorite games straight to your console's hard drive?

I personally don't pre-order games, since I would be paying retail price. Plus, publishers are getting too greedy with the pre-order exclusives (eg Goro in MKX), trying to entice us to spend our money. Over here, I know if you pre-order a game, they usually try to post it so you get it on release day.

Not a fan of downloads, this is quite ironic - I'm actually downloading a game at this very moment from PSN. Anywho, since with PSN downloads, you've to have at least double the file size to begin the download and I don't usually have the space to begin with, thanks to those many patches/updates developers spring on us after they've given us shoddy products (eg Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 day one patch being bigger than the actual base game).

If I could get the actual hard copies than the digital in 24-48hrs it would be better,so I can sell it whenever I feel like it.

Pre-ordering?? Nah!!

Sorry not u.

Nope.
I can forgo the thrill of that early release and save a few dough on the cost of the game. Besides, downloading here is additional cost...I'll just wait and pick the discs when the price drops

I pre-ordered my Fifa 16 deluxe edition and don't regret it one bit.

It has added benefits of about usd 50.00 than the regular release hence it was a bargain to pre-order since I had to pay between usd 25 - 30 than the regular release.

Bottom line : pre-ordering has its perks
