Don't pre-order games.
Putting the facts out like that, I can't help but agree. The selfish part of me hopes they continue this sort of thing.Heh, I'd argue that 90% off all their most recent games is better than Steam or anyone else has ever done. Given that bundles are normally games from a year or two ago, the Build Your Own Telltale Bundle was arguably better than any formal Humble Bundle would have been. In fact, we can verify this--in May 2013, Humble had a Telltale Bundle. It included $1: BTTF, Sam and Max 3 (2010), Poker Night 1 (2010), Wallace (2009), Puzzle Agent 1 (2010), Puzzle Agent 2 (2011). $5 (BTA): Walking Dead. At that point, Walking Dead had been out for around 13 months since the first episode and maybe 5 or 6 since the series had ended. So you got a year old game and 5 multi-year old games for $5.
In the build-your-own Bundle this week, you got Game of Thrones (oldest episode 8 months old, not done yet), Tales from the Borderlands (oldest episode 9 months, not done yet), TWD S2 (2014), TWAU (2013-2014), Poker Night 2 (2013), Jurassic Park (2011), and others if you wanted for about $15-ish. Newer games including two that aren't finished, and even more older games, and the price scale is super reasonable. Especially since GoT is 6 episodes. Definitely the best bundle opportunity in a year or two for sure, across all publishers.
Deadpool coming to current gen consoles for 50 bucks.
Wow.
What's the Deus Ex pre-order bonus?

Stuff that you mostly have to pass on, because you can choose only 1 out of 3 things per tier, and a delayed release if not enough people preorder.
It's another tiered bonus order deal, where x amount of people need to preorder to unlock everything.
AA games may be dead, but at least they're remastered.
I wasnt joking
I think you can skip em but they also hide the loading
and Hideo Kojima is the first name that shows up
so, Hideo Kojima all the time, in your face
This is why consoles will never stop existing, console gamers have proven time and time again that they will keep buying the same game over and over as long as it's labeled as a remaster or remake, these companies are literally turning up the settings on the PC versions and porting them to consoles and getting $30-$60 for them. As scummy as it may be, it's genius.
Deadpool on PS4/XB1?...ok
$50?...nope
Don't pre-order games.
the 4 day early release is fucking insane
the worst one of these things ive seen
I love how everyone talks about how connected these guys are to their audience
"OMG they made an ad that mentions a gafer!!"
then they do this crap
omg they love us
Square is trying to wake us sheeple up the only way they know how.A very meta way to throw us into the despair of a dystopian digital future.
Basically means there is no chance for a decent discount in the Winter sale.

Remember that Portal 2 ARG? They hinted at an earlier release the more people did something (can't remember what) but it was basically a scam.

I got the game like 12 hours earlier was it? it was real
but that was for getting the golden potato by doing everything
also, I got another copy of the game before release for free (had already bought it)
nothing like this

PC games get heavy discounts constantly despite recently released console 'remasters'.
Free copy for doing everything? Don't remember that at all but then I wasn't crazy enough to do that.
Well we've just about made it to page 400 folks.
I'll be putting up the new thread in the next few hours. I already have a pretty good title in mind, but if you guys can think up a better one I'll use it.
I'd rather get Mankind Divided in February than XCOM or Mirror's Edge. Mirror's Edge uses Origin, and I still haven't beaten Enemy Unknown.
So people are losing their shit because it's a tiered pre-order system? Where was this outrage when Bioshock Infinite did it? Feels like a real shitstorm over nothing.
Early release is tied to how many people preorder? How messed up is that?

Or with Tales of Zestiria. Admittedly, getting another game with it did alter views.So people are losing their shit because it's a tiered pre-order system? Where was this outrage when Bioshock Infinite did it? Feels like a real shitstorm over nothing.

in far more important news tho
regular sized New 3DS coming to the west these holidays suckerssssssss
MAH FACEPLATES
7 hours into release on Close Your Eyes report.
Firstly, I AM SO RELIEVED, Trading Cards are in~ Anyone who buys or has the DLC/got those keys I gave away a while ago should have access to the Trading Cards, I was worried since I'm only charging $1.99 for it and gave a lot of keys away it might not work out, but there's already CYE trading cards ending up on the market, so I assume people who got keys can get Trading Cards.
Though it was temporary, this also made me really happy. From Steam's Most Popular chart:
With all that, response and reviews for the game have been extremely positive so far, surprisingly so again. I knew the old version of the game got praise, but was thinking it'd be harsher on the Steam-side, but it's rather glowing so far.
Not too much attention yet, but I'm very pleased with the response. And interested as more feedback roles in.
Cool.Well we've just about made it to page 400 folks.

Tiered pre-order systems are bullshit no matter who does it. The system for Deus Ex is a whole lot worse than what they did for Bioshock Infinite, though.
Pre-orders are bullshit in the vast majority of cases. The only real advantage is getting a cheaper price or a preload.
I'm just baffled as to why this particular case suddenly gets a mass uprising of people losing their shit. Is it the four days early thing?
"They aren't happy? Time to add a Cloud skin and buster sword."If they respond to YT like/dislike bar they are listening
