Video game preorders are useless

Preorders and their exclusive-content bonuses have become a mainstay in the game-buying process, and they're really annoying.

Wintersun6165134d ago

For someone like me who doesn't have the most stable or plentiful income, they can be useful for those must have games, sometimes I simply don't have enough money to buy a brand new game, but every now and then I can do that if I pre-order and pay it when I have that money available.

The free stuff that comes with pre-orders is pretty useless in most cases though.

Persistantthug5134d ago

But other than that, I too never preorder, because I get the same stuff on a first day walk in buy....actually, I get it that whole first week.

THR1LLHOUSE5134d ago

I only pre-order if there's some kind of bonus i really want...the last two I've done were Deus Ex: HR and Bioshock.

MysticStrummer5134d ago

Sweeping statements are useless. I pre-order when there's a bonus I want. It works just fine for me and many other people.

Hicken5134d ago

i preorder when I feel like it. I try to put money down on every game I know I want before it comes out, so I can pay it off in pieces and not come out of pocket all at once. But I don't do that for every game, nor do I wind up buying every game I preorder.

TheModernKamikaze5134d ago

I think if you pre order and get bonuses it is useless they sometimes give it away for free in the months away. The bonus you get is limited timed exclusive and sometimes it has benefits like the guy above me said Amazon gift cards.

I got 80% trophy completion on Ragnarok but left a few of the battles. Will come back to it one day.

Miraak82 1066d ago

Dragon Quest 11 is my top pick

RpgSama1065d ago

Dragon Quest XI was such an AMAZING game, I had a blast from the very beginning all the way to the very end, it actually got better the more you played, full of surprises as well.

Another game that I enjoyed from the very beginning all the way to the end of the 100% completion was Yakuza: Like a Dragon. Really, really, really fun game with a great heartfelt story.

Where is Horizon Zero Dawn?? where is Ghost of Tsushima?? I just got my Platinum on HZD and is now trying to finish the Frozen Wild expansion. so much care and love went into that game and it really shows. I especially adore the lore and have sunk many hours listening to the logs and reading journals. the back story is great and the gameplay is awesome. can't wait to replay on the hardest difficulty on NG+. next in my list would be to finish GoTsushima

Tacoboto1066d ago

Ghost was fantastic especially after Iki Island and the PS5 upgrade. 100%'d that, Horizon Forbidden West (not ZD), GoW (not yet Ragnarok), Spider-Man, and R&C: Rift Apart.

Each one absolutely worth it.

Aloymetal1066d ago (Edited 1066d ago )

100% I would like to add to you list RDR2, amazing as well and the perks from getting the Legend Of The East outfit is awesome.
Sekiro as well, have to play twice to get it but it's worth it!

Demetrius1066d ago

I agree I'm on my 2nd playthroughs of both horizon forbidden West(zero dawn I played also) ghost of Tsushima except I'm replaying it on PS5 this time, the iki island expansion is amazing

ClayRules20121066d ago

Yeah, GoT was already an AMAZING game on PS4, but playing it on PS5, along with that expansion, just even better.

Elda1065d ago

I just started my copy of GOW:R, enjoying it so far.

DefenderOfDoom21065d ago (Edited 1065d ago )

Okay the title of article should be top 10 , 3rd person games to complete 100 percent. Nine 3rd person games and 1 racing game on this list .
