Do you pre-order any games?

I never preorder games unless there is a deal if I buy it early.

How about you? Have you pre ordered any games?

I don't preorder games because if you wait 2~4 months you can get it for a discount. I just don't see the point of spending $70 on a game when you can get it for $40 or less if you wait.

I used to pre-order games in the past when I had more time to play them from day one but nowadays, I don't have so much time so I tend not to bother pre-ordering and purchase the game when I know I will have the time.

I pre order digital versions of the game sometimes. I even pre download the game to the hard drive on the day that they allow it so you don't have to wait once it releases. The fact that it doesn't cost extra is why.

Yes, I have pre ordered games every now and then. It's not something I do all the time except for if the game was really worth buying on pre order. Elden Ring was worth buying on pre order.

Not as much as I did in the past. There has to be something that makes it worth the extra cost or some form of guarantee that the game isn't going to be garbage.

I thought elden ring was fun. I only played part of it but I enjoyed it quite a bit. Tekken 8 may be worth your time if you want to check it out. I was going to pre-order but didn't have the money. It released either in january or february. One or the other I can't remember. But I have Tekken 7 on disc and it's super fun.

I used to pre-order games all the time until Star Wars Battlefront 2 came. After how badly I was burned by that game, I've never pre-ordered another one. I've considered it a few times but decided against it, and I was justified by my decision in every case.

I already have Tekken 8. It's very intense fighting game. I no longer know which one is better between Tekken 7 and 8 but I can say both of them are great games.

I've stopped making preorders because I realised that it is easier for me not to make mistakes when I pre-order games. See, I have had experiences where the games that I preordered ended up being poor.

As for me, I don't really pre-order games, but I know many gamers have mixed feelings about it. Some see it as a way to secure exclusive bonuses or limited editions, while others prefer to wait for reviews and player feedback before committing to a purchase. Personally, I tend to wait until a game is released and then assess whether it's worth buying based on reviews, gameplay footage, and word of mouth.

I don't pre-order games and typically wait for sales.

The bonuses that are offered for some games is something I might consider if it's a game I know I will likely get at some point and know that the bonuses are something I will enjoy. But other than that I also tend to do the same.
