Yakuza 3 time is so close that we're already talking about preorder bonuses. I thought this day would never come.
Those of you that have been following the game know that it comes out on March 9th. If you haven't preordered yet, you might want to hit up GameStop, as they have an exclusive in-game add-on as a preorder bonus. they call it the Challenge Pack, and with it you'll be able to challenge friends in 2-player minigames like darts, golf, bowling and the like. It's like they took the in-game games and blew them up for 2 players.
There's also bonus outfits that will be unlocked after completion for Haruka, Kazuma, and Rikiya.
Preorder either online or in-store and get a code that you'll be able to enter to download these goodies.
On top of all of this, GameStop has taken $5 off the preorder price. Woah! That's huge for GameStop. That's like a fatty passing on the fried chicken.

$5? lol. No thanks, I'll stick to Amazon.
Also, this has probably been asked before but do i have to play 1 &2 before playing 3?
Bring back the cool pre-order bonuses.
it's a minor addition, so you're hardly being "locked out" of anything. as for cool pre-order bonuses...why would companies spend money producing plastic trinkets, when digital bonuses are more cost-effective?
I need to preorder at Gamestop. God forbid I miss out on that.
Why are in game bonuses all the rage now? I like glorified toys better. And lunchboxes. Besides, there's a good chance this will be downloadable for the masses in a few months anyway.
Seriously, Sega, why do you have to participate in this pre-order at Store X crap?
As someone who would enjoy some 2P mahjong or billiards i might actually get on this one.
It sucks that all this shit was given away for free in the Japanese release.
Bastards. I really loathe Gamestop sometimes.
