I've looked through several pages and haven't seen this topic...

...and although it WOULD be safe to assume that constantly active members have it pre-ordered... it's not ALWAYS the case.

Cheers!

you should probably preorder so you can guarantee you a copy. Only the $20 minimum will hold it for you.

I preordered last week for the 360, but I only put the minimum $25 down. As soon as I get paid, I plan to pay the rest off.

Pre-ordered for the PS2. I only put the $25 down, but with my employee discount I only have a little over $100 to pay in full. Not too shabby.

I want to get the mic and the drums, but if my GH III and GH II controllers work I'm okay. I want the game, but I don't want to spend too much on it. :D

i had a friend reserve it at the store (two bundles - one for each of us), but i guess technically it's not a preorder since we never put any money down.

I haven't pre-ordered yet. I'm probably going today or tommorow. I'm really only pre-ordering as an emergency back up plan since I have a $75 gift card to wal-mart.

Pre-ordered with minimum payment. No reason to put any more money down on something that I don't have yet.

Preordered from Gamestop, having it overnighted so it will hopefully be on my doorstep the 23rd.

I paid off my pre-order yesterday AND picked up The Orange Box. Damn, I feel so much lighter now.

Going to preorder it, just haven't yet. Also don't know who to preorder from... They have... Wal-Mart, Best Buy, and EBGames around me and thats pretty much it. Probably won't matter cause I will probably get it shipped to me anyway.

Preordered a month ago with 50 bucks down. Going again in two weeks to put 50 more and so on.

X360 version and in full about a month ago (early Sep).

Also paid upfront for (2) wireless guitars, but we all know that's now a no show.

My mom preordered it for me at home, while I am here in Pittsburgh. Hell, she even volunteered to go get it at 10 am on Black Friday. Haha, I love her so much - but I think I'll enjoy everything so much more if I go pick it up myself.

There is no reason for anyone not to pre-order. It's releasing on possibly the biggest shopping day of the year.

Yes, Rock Band is still somewhat underground, only known by real gamers. But, you never know. It only takes 1 week to see constant commercials on all major network channels for parents and general public to find out about this game. Or, if you see a news report on the evening news.

Bottom line, pre-order, I wouldn't take your chances not to.

ALSO, in light of the confirmation that NO individual instruments will be sold. You definitely want to pre-order the bundle, as it will sell out at release, and probably not be available again until mid december.

I have it pre-ordered at EB games currently. Put down $50 so far on the PS3 version :D

Pre-ordered for the PS3 and have 30 dollars down. Once both my kids' birthdays get out of the way (Oct 18th and Nov 2) then I'll concentrate on getting the rest paid off.

Preordered and paid in full at Gamestop online. They better come through with their "Street Date Delivery."

Pre-ordered AND paid in full...

The GameStop guy made a big deal out of it too... almost like he was proud of me for paying off "Rock Band"...

...I couldn't tell whether it was kind of sweet... or kind of sad...

None of the above.

I've TRIED to pre-order but gamestop.com sucks and keeps saying theres an error with my details.

I'm an aussie and it says some international banks block them so I have to send them all my credit card details and tell my bank to allow them access and to give out my address details. I went to my bank and they just said it's a dodgey site trying to steal my money and that their policy prevents them from doing anything required to get my RB order.

Obviously gamestop isn't doing that, they're one of the biggest (if not THE biggest games retail companies in the US. But yeah, it's just annoying.

I havn't found any other online stores that will ship to Australia, which sucks.

Paid in full, PS3, www.gamestop.com (for the international delivery), I just hope the postal strikes here in the UK don't affect it's delivery.

Just the minimum down payment for Rock Band. I'll have it paid off before the 23rd just so I can look really cool walking in and picking it up and not having to drop any money on the counter.

Things like this really give you "video game street cred" :D

Is there such a thing?

Possibly. In the thread "Are you a video game addict?" I came in at 17% addicted. So if there is such a thing as VGC (video game cred) I seriously lack it.

Waiting for launch is tempting fate, it's Black Friday.

I have about $30 left to pay on my preorder.

Already pre-ordered, the day the official price and release date of the bundle came out. Payed it in full, I cannot wait for it to get delivered to me!

I haven't,mostly cause I can't. Wal-Mart doesn't normally take pre-orders though they did for Halo 3 and have boxes for Assassin's Creed.

BarryC
10-13-2007, 02:25 PM
I work at Wal-Mart and there probably won't be a huge demand for it, but no pre-order for me. I can go pick it up at 12:01 AM that Friday morning :)

Im going to, I just haven't yet. I pre-ordered GH III from Best Buy, and when I go to get it, I'm going to pre-order Rock Band

I have the bundle pre-ordered, for 360...
I also have all of the instruments pre-ordered...
none of it is paid off in full... but hey, if i can get the game, 2 guitars, 2 drumkits and 2 mics on launch day, then i'm happy... even if I am going to have to shell out around 300 bucks...

Only way THAT'S gonna happen is if you're getting two games..... bundles, that is...

you dont really need two mics if you have the xbox live headset!

Got my pre-order in today, and we plunked down the full amount just so we wouldn't have to worry about it later. It'll also look nice on the 46" widescreen TV we grabbed. After playing at the tour, I realize there's just no other proper way to play the game than in widescreen...
