Topic: What Do You Have Pre-Ordered?

@ToddlerNaruto UK. I'm not saying they do, just that I've never bought a game that had been out years from a website to say whether they have them as 'new' or not.

I recently caved in and finally pre-ordered the PS4 Pro 1TB Limited Edition Amazing Red Marvel's Spider-Man Console Bundle from BestBuy.com.

Almost went with GameStop.com but their stock was depleted crazy fast. This will be my first pre-order in ages...last time I did that was with Kingdom Hearts II on PS2 back in 2005.

I couldn't resist getting the $60 Game and the Season Pass for free .

@JohnnyShoulder @RogerRoger You both raise very good points!

You've got it ! I'll be sharing my experience for sure after I've beaten the game.

I recently pre-ordered Ride 3, I'm a huge fan of the previous two bike games, especially the last one. I like how they keep expanding and improving on this series. It's a real shame it's not more popular, but too many people keep expecting these smaller racing game studios to have the same big budgets as a Gran Turismo or Forza title, or anything made by Codemasters. Anyway, I'm super-excited for the new one, I'm hurrying up to finish up Ride 2 in the meantime.

I only ever pre-ordered from Shopto because they always used to get the game to you a day before release. I've not had that for a while, though, ever since most release days changed to a Tuesday rather that a Friday. That said, I have pre-ordered Red Dead Redemption 2 because I bloody need that game.

@ApostateMage Simply Games have a good track record of delivering games a couple of days before release. I've had a few games off them delivered on a Friday or Saturday when the game was released on a Tuesday.

@JohnnyShoulder Nice one. I'll have to give them a try. They're mostly the cheapest on price comparison sites, too.

Did another wave of pre-orders yesterday. The only items I've got outstanding right now are Astro Bot (digital) and Kingdom Hearts 3, so I figured I'd get some more in to fill the gaps:

Red Dead Redemption 2
Darksiders 3
WWE2K19
PlayStation Classic
Persona 3 & 5: Endless Night Collection

I've stopped buying the yearly sports games, but this years WWE is a must buy for me with the Daniel Bryan showcase mode. Could see myself beating that mode and immediately trading the game in though. I was also able to secure the PlayStation Classic from GAME (rewards), so I'll be cancelling my amazon preorder.
Think I'm sorted for the year.

well currently i have pre-ordered

KINGDOM HEARTS III PS4 (actually i have this on pre-order for about 5 years)
My Hero One's Justice PS4
PlayStation Classic
FINAL FANTASY VII Remake
Tales of Vespieria: Definitive Edition XBOX ONE
Jump Force CURRENTLY PS4 but i am think of changing it to XBOX ONE
One Piece World Seeker CURRENTLY PS4 but i am also thinking of changing this to XBOX ONE
FINAL FANTASY X/X-2 HD Nintendo Switch
FINAL FANTASY XII Nintendo Switch
Devil May Cry 5 CURRENTLY XBOX ONE but i might change to PS4

i did this post as some things have changed since my first post, some of the games i had pre-ordered then are now out AND some i have cancelled

RDR2 and AC: Odyssey

@FullbringIchigo
Where on earth do you find the time to play all these games? 😂

@JohnnyShoulder i pick one to spend most of my time on and stagger the rest for those times when i just want to play for a little while, such as before i go to bed

this does mean i get quite a few more games on my backlog pile though but i'll get round to them eventually

plus fighting games are easy to just drop in and drop out of

I'm thinking about buying Hollow Knight as it's got a healthy 20% discount if you pre-order it but I'm just not sure on it. I prefer Dead Cells but I consider $25 to be too much. Has anyone played any of these? Any opinions?

Besides, I have AC Odyssey pre-ordered.

@NecuVise https://www.pushsquare.com/forums/ps4/anyone_else_hooked_on_d...

@Kidfried I haven't played any of them but just by watching videos, I'd like to play dead cells more because it looks more fun and doesn't require as much time investment as hollow knight. Well, in the end I'll grab both. Hollow knight now and dead cells probably on black Friday or around new year when we get some decent sale. @JohnnyShoulder I've already read that thread but it's not informative for me as I already know I want to play dead cells, but not sure about hollow knight. Anyway, thanks for the tip. I'll go for hollow knight now and sometimes later for dead cells.

@Kidfried dead cells is twice the price of hollow knights and I just can't justify spending so much on it right now, that's why I've delegated it for future sales and bought hollow knight now I've read that you need to invest some time into hollow knight so I'll keep that in mind. Any other tips for beginners?

@NecuVise I've played Dead Cells and not Hollow Knight. The former is made interesting in the fact that it's a relatively short game but you will be replaying it over and over in order to level up enough and get good enough gear to make it all the way through. I've had 40+ runs and not yet defeated the final boss. The levels are randomly generated and there are multiple paths to take so each run is different.

Hollow Knight seems to be a tough game but with a set world and story so they seem to be quite different games but just with tricky combat.

@Kidfried yes I have. Thanks, I will!
@Thrillho that's exactly what lures me to dead cells. Tight combat and that you can play it in short sessions if you don't have plenty of time.

Now I'm really pumped to play hollow knight, can't wait. Only 24 or so hours till it's playable.

Dakar 18 and Ride 3.

Update: I have also pre-ordered Call of Cthulhu, after finding a great deal in a local online store.

I'm warming up towards Red Dead Redemption 2, so maybe that one as well. I know I will like it more than Spider-Man, Tomb Raider and Assassin's Creed. So it could be my next non-racing AAA game. However, I'm also really into the new Dragon Quest.

Update 2: traded in my copy of God of War (2018), which I won't be finishing anyway, for a pre-order of 11-11: Memories Retold, a narrative-based game arriving in early November.

I've got Sakura Wars and Ghost of Tsushima CE on pre-order. Sakura Wars looked pretty interesting and it's got a lot of different social stuff to do with an interesting choice system, one that's timed so I hope it's deeper than the typical pick an obvious route visual novel stuff. And honestly, the more I look at it's beautiful cover the more I feel it wasn't a bad idea. It also comes at a decent time between P5:R and GoT.
I probably shoudn't have gotten the CE of GoT since it's so expensive, but I'm such a massive Sucker Punch fan and the game looks better and better with everything I hear about it. And the stuff it comes looks really nice so I crumbled and decided to go ahead and pre-order that $170 monster.
