    The only thing I like about pre-ordering is the free gifts you tend to get when you do pre-order. e.g. Keyring, T-Shirt, Pen.

    Well I got RTW as a Valentine gift... I guess I will have to wait awhile for another occasion before I get RTW:BI.

    Pre-ordered a few days ago, its supposed to be dispatched today so that it arrives on the day of release. Whether it does or not is another story...

    Friend of mine bought it for £20 earlier, straight out of the shop. Not too bad, I'm getting my copy from that shop.

    Thanks to pre-ordering I got my copy 2 days before the actual release.

    Payed 249 NOK for it btw.

    I really think it depends on the game/expansion you're buying. If you're buying Halo2, then you will want to pre-order because even if you go at midnight (like me) you are not guaranteed a copy.

    With this expansion though, I think not that many people are interested in this sort of genre, and I think out of those people not many have the game to...expand on.

    Now, if you want to save money and you can wait, than go with pre-order, if not than I'm sure you will not have difficulty finding it in a store.

    Either way good luck!
