Sometimes I preorder but only for titles I know will sell out and I won't get on time. What I have seen at Wal-Mart is that when you pre order a game there, you get a free $10 gift card when you pick up the game. I saw that when I went to get ME2 from there. Didn't preorder it though.

Back a few months ago when I got ODST, I preordered from Target and got a free $5 gift card, and it was only like $1 to preorder. So I got like 4 bucks from preordering it there. I don't know how much it is to preorder at Wal-Mart though.

only twice ever killzone 2 and call of duty modern warfare 2 got $10 off at bestbuy wohoo!

Not much, have the Heavy Rain Special Edition on pre-order tho only because you can only get it from HMV.

Alternatively you could not buy from GAME, and thus get most of your games £5 cheaper in the first place.... then rather than having to spend almost £2000 to get a free game (or £1000 for pre-ordered stuff) you have saved enough for an extra game after buying about 5-6 games.

Although I have seen some games on GAMEs online store are often £5 cheaper than in store.

never pre-ordered a game in my life, but i am thinking about preordering red steel 2 and no more heroes 2 when it gets announced by rising star games for European countrys... i also am thinking about preordering Metroid Other M because i think thats my overhyped game this gen

Before this gen I've never preordered, but I find myself preordering the games I know I'll get now. Especially if there is a preorder bonus.

yeah if I have the money I will...just to make sure that I get a copy on the first day of release

or if there is a cool bonus for pre-ordering

I preorder now for bonus and gift cards.

I always pre-order to get the bonuses

I only pre order if I really want a game or if it comes with something special.
