Any US retailers getting this?
 
anyword on the Hammerburt? Also, do I have to pre order or can I just pick it up on the day it comes out and still get it. BTW, its only worth 20$, they just put 200 so no1 else buys it

They put random prices on pre-order bonus items, you can't buy them separately.
Oh ok. I think I'll buy the figure through Amazon. Looks pretty sweet. What I really want is a Carmine figure. I saw one before but it was for Comic-Con only I believe. Does anyone know if they're selling it now?
 
Wait do you actually get that if you pre-order in Canada? Holy shit I'm changing my pre-order since EBgames isn't doing midnight anyway..

But what's the deal with the hammerburst..

Amazon sent me an email about it. Though it's not a preorder bonus, you have to buy it separately.

From the game Gears of War 2 comes this "Headshot" Locust Drone action figure. It includes a real metal COG tags. *This bonus is free with your purchase of Gears Of War 2 Limited Edition (XBOX 360) (Web id: 10112798). This bonus gift is not for sale. Not applicable to previous purchases and not to be purchased separately - any gifts ordered separately will be cancelled. While supplies last.
 
I just called the young and eglington location, and he said you get a COG tag or that doll thing, but he's not sure yet on the details, so he said to call tomorrow and he'll have more info.

Not in the U.S it ain't.

I think it's funny it says U.S exclusive when it obviously isn't.

Then again, I guess it works out. We get a free lancer with preorder from Amazon.
 
I took the same pic at the NYCC this year of that figure..

I already have that locust but with a head, so pass :P

First thing I thought was that the futureshop staff are all going to take one home and probably stop a few pre order people even getting or knowing about one, hate that kind of shit :/

dam, now I don't know where to buy it :(
If EB really is giving it away with a preorder that sounds like the better way to go. Midnight launches in our frozen tundra in November suck :(
 
Blockbuster Canada are doing midnight launches with golden Hammerbursts as well. Not sure if we get the Best Buy pre-order, but the Lancer is also available at amazon.ca

Apparently Future Shop are also giving out coupons for Gears 2 with trade-ins, similar to the Fable II/LBP deal. I can't find the details on the site, but apparently you trade in two games and get a coupon for something like $20 off the game in addition to your trade-in credit. Not too shabby.
 
it's not obvious if you have to order online with shipping to get that bonus. if you could order it and pick it up on launch day i'd be all over that.

figuring vs. Golden hammerburst, still a tough choice.

i dono, i'd rather have something physical whenever possible. The figurine is worth $20 on it's own not including the tags. While the in-game weapon is neat i don't think I'd spend $20 worth of points on it.
 
Btw, this is neither a pre-order bonus nor limited to the LE version. Just go Future Shop midnight on release day and if they don't run out you'll get one. Or just order online.

Negative. I went to the store to try to preorder and try to clarify.

You cannot preorder the LE, only the regular. You can only get the bonus if you get the LE. That was what I was told in store.

Ahh, you're right, but I think it'll still work online. I just tried the Buy Now option for the regular edition and the deal still came up. I'm probably going to do that.
