Fox Makenshi here. Don't remember if you guys know or not but I work at a GameStop and I saw a display with some information you guys might find VERY interesting. The following are pictures I took (with my phone's camera).
You're welcome :p

It's a minimum of $5 to pre-order. That money goes toward the price of the game when it comes out so you never really lose it. I always say: if you're going to pick the game up on release day there's no reason to not pre-order. The stores recieve enough copies to cover reserves, how many extra copies show up depends on how much hype the game has and how many reserves there currently are. The more reserves there are, the more extra copies a store will get. Sometimes a game only ships enough to cover reserves so I wouldn't take my chances.

@Fox_Makenshi
I've heard otherwise from a gamestop employee. I've heard that they get a shipment irregardless of preorders, and that they don't actually have to guarntee you a copy even if you preoder.
Actually, I also remember him saying that he was instructed by his manager when being trained, that if a pre-order wasn't picked up in...2? 3? weeks (Can't remember how much time) They can just go into the system, cancel it and pocket the $5.
Ahhh the stories I've heard from gamestop....
There's a reason I don't shop there.
thank you, but im going to have to tell your manager that your leaking classified information
thats so cool, theyre all pistols, and i wanted that as one of my main weapons, that makes me very happy
FFFFUUUUCCCCKKKKK!!!!!! YYYYEEEEEAAAAAHHH!!!!!!!
