"Much like Goro, CWal37 loves Baconator Pizza Sandwiches. In fact, he once impaled multiple patrons at a grocery store in a mad dash to the frozen aisle upon hearing that pizzas were on sale. He's no longer welcome at several local grocery stores based solely on his notoriety." -Nilcam

Your complete guide to Destructoid

Crippled by Indesicion: LittleBigPlanet Pre-Order
CWal37 \| 2:54 PM on 09.23.2008	20 comments

So by now I assume most people even marginally interested in LittleBigPlanet know that there are certain pre-order bonuses that are only available at certain places. The four items up for grabs are a Digital guide to creating content within the game (presumably some kind of strategy guide, except digital, making it even more worthless in my eyes), a sticker book (which I don't care about at all), and then two in-game outfits for your sack people. These two outfits are the only real choices in my mind. The problem is that I can not decide which one to get.

Either Kratos from Gamestop:

or Nariko of Best Buy:

I really can't decide.

Other factors in the equation include that I don't really care for either company (I wish I could just get it on Amazon) and that if I get the Best Buy one, I won't have it on launch day.

Which do you think I should get?

God, it's like choosing between the lesser of two evils. I don't like Nariko, but GameStop is so evil I don't want to give them any money.

Preorder it from gamestop, get the code, then cancel the preorder. Then go to best buy. Problem solved.

funran

kratos!

pedrovay2003

Go for the one at GameCrazy. You get an ACTUAL preorder bonus. You get a burlap sack to put the game in.

ghets

Ill be too busy using the sack that i create to care which but ill most likely get the ebgames pre-order because theyre closer than best buy.

@brainderailment:

I feel so juvenile but I'm still laughing at your line "I hold a sackboy in my hands due to my wife's ambition...."

But yeah, I would go with gamecrazy on this one.

Primo

you have to go with kratos

pedrovay2003

Picture for you.

BlindsideDork

unfortunately Gamestop :(

Mr Wilson

What GenFuYung said. Preorder at GS, get the code and come back in a few days to cancel. Then just pre order at best buy

I just got back from pre-ordering from Gamestop. Yeah, you get the Kratos code upon pre-order, so you could potentially go pre-order, cancel later and get both. I was told though that at launch day when people go to pick up their pre-orders, they would get a second code that unlocks themed God Of War level pieces for a God Of War themed level.

Of course, my choice was mostly based off of a Gamespot being closer to where I am than the other stores, but hell, w/e.

covah

Pre order them both, get the codes, cancel one.

liam2015

I got the Kratos one. I probably would have gone for that bag as well, but there is no Blockbuster within walking distance. Neither is a Best Buy, but I don't even want Nariko.

But you could always cancel one, then get the other.

Kratos FTW.

uhh i think my own creations will be much more enjoyable. like robot-pirate or maybe even a pirate-robot!

Do the LittleBigHustle like I did (accidentally). Go to bestbuy.com and purchase the "pre-order bonus" for $5, select in-store pickup as the shipping option, and then watch as the Best Buy employees have NO fucking idea what the item is. If it takes them more than 1 minute to get your in-store pickup order to you after entering the pickup code they refund you $10 (or the purchase price if it's less than $10) so you're likely to get it for the cost of a trip out to Best Buy. Plus a penny, since it appears that they can't refund the purchase down to $0.

But now that I've got a taste for the LBH I'm thinking about canceling my GameStop pre-order and picking it up from a third retailer to either get a better price or a third pre-order bonus...

manta

If I pre-order online am I able to get a code emailed to me immediately? No Best Buys or Gamestops within 90 miles of me :/

CWal37

I think I'm going to take the laziest route and just swing by Gamestop after class tomorrow since it's right here on campus.
