I was wondering how many people still preorder games. I've have never not been able to find a game on a release day because it was sold out. When GTA: SA came out for the PS2 back in the day I went to my local Gamestop and they told me unless I preordered, I would not be able to get the game for months. After that I went to another store in the mall call FYI and they had tons of them. I was so pissed at the guy from Gamestop, that I went back and showd him that I found the game no problem at another store. Gamestop basically lost my sale bacause they did not have enough on stock.
The only way I can see someone preordering a game is if they offer you something in advance (ie. a shirt or hat or even a reduced price) or if you live in a desolate area where you only have one game store. DVD's are extreamly easy to produce. There just stamped out and cost just pennies to make.
