Thanks! Paid in full with all the PowerUp credit. Woot!

Scorpio Edition Pre-Ordered from Best Buy. Let's do this!

 

[Defect]

Got one on both Amazon and Gamestop just in case I can do some sort of trade in promo.

 

[Static Veins]

Preordered on Amazon UK. Not 100% sure I'll go through with it but wanted the Project Scorpio version ordered just in case.

 

[Syrus]

Guys, will I get this on release date via amazon? I did prime 2 day as usual

 

[TeaFan]

Amazon UK pre ordered whoop

 

[Sudafed51]

I got mine from Best Buy!

 

[Wishmaster92]

Somebody with you in line? Seriously, if it's going to be a while take my advice if they aren't doing it already, have someone go get some cases of bottled water, don't open the cases, take them in and ask if you or they can hand them out to everyone.

I did this once and it got me a standing ovation and they let me go to the front of the line as well as letting me pick my choice of Halo paraphernalia that was hanging on the walls at one of the midnight launches.

 

[charpunk]

Has anyone had a gamestop.com order go through?

Did you get a $100% bill back as well?

 

[Capsov]

Do Best Buy preorders usually come on release day?

 

[Pantz]

Can't help but wonder if it would have been more effective to announce the pre-order date like 2 weeks ago, rather than keeping it secret till the day of.

Got my order locked in on Amazon

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

Secured orders from BB and Amazon.

Yes, just a placeholder they always do.

And I did not even realize all that is available is this Project Scorpio Edition on Amazon. Not to keen on the extra branding, but will keep my preorder for now and see what is doing once they release a regular version.

I don't understand?...

My gamestop had 8. All already gone. Less than 5 minutes

Yeah and some got their PS4 Pro's a day or two early from Best Buy.

 

[Mighty Bison]

Same. I'm trying to get a regular one from Gamestop. Went ahead and preordered the Scorpio from Amazon as a safety net though.

 

[ViciousDS]

Only 8


Oh boy


I might want to keep my amazon and Best Buy orders intact to make sure one doesn't get cancelled

 

[Sorta Maximus]

Easy preorder. Wish Nintendo was like this.

I was just thinking the same thing. I preordered an XBOX One X Scorpio Edition on Amazon. Soon I'll have all three current gen consoles plus a PS3. BTW, the PS3 Super Slim isn't half as bad as I thought it would be build wise. Next is a gaming PC.

 

[Hardvlade]

Pre-ordered two at GameStop (in-store), $100 minimum down for each.

 

[Kabuki Waq]

Got #3 of 6 from my EB. As of right now they have only been allotted 6 day one editions.

Wonder if they are shorting supply.

Really? It had shipping only for me. Odd.

For the op

Can get £90 off if first time via credit agreement.

 

[Lakerchick4life]

Went ahead and ordered..used ALL of my gamestop credit and the remaining 7 bucks on my AMEX card..in the order confirmation it shows BOTH cards used so thats how it works right..they take the entire balance from the gamestop gift card and whatever is left over goes on the credit card?

 

[Syrus]

Any news on trade in programs?

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

I got my Best Buy order in. I would have preferred in-store pickup like always but that option wasn't available and I didn't want to wait and see.

 

[Adam_802]

Yeah, I just preordered from best buy, and my order details say 'get it by: Nov 7th'.

Avoid Very like the plague.

 

[EekumBokum]

Are Gamestop and Amazon the only places that don't do pre-auths?

 

[Duchess O'Death]

I don't know how I feel about the vertical writing on the controller. It looks so off.

 

[ScaryShark]

It's not the best.

 

[VlaudTheImpaler]

I don't know how I feel about the vertical writing on the controller. It looks so off.

I'm wondering if you could just rub it off with some rubbing alcohol like you could the day one edition.

 

[un1que]

Avoid Very like the plague.

I know they're not ideal but paid straight away and will close agreement. All my past orders have been fine. For £90 I'll take the risk

 

[saker]

Thats quite a good start! Greetings from Hamburg and welcome!

Thanks, mate. Greetings from Berlin.
It took the webmaster 6 months to accept my registration and now i am glad to be part of the community.

 

[Stealthcobra]

When can we expect gamestop trade in deals?

 

[Ovech-King]

f*ck it, ordered with Walmart Canada and will deliver to my job

 

[Lima]

Do you even Elite controller bro

 

[Stevey]

I don't know how I feel about the vertical writing on the controller. It looks so off.

Wait, cant you sit it horizontally like the current Xbox One?

 

[diablos991]

Holy crap. I'm glad I was first at my local GameStop if there are numbers like 8 and 6 floating around.

I'll keep my Amazon preorder in case this one turns into a flipper.

 

[esmith08734]

Locked in an Amazon preorder. I'll think about it - if I truly want it a bit.

 

[wowzors]

Used a $500 GameStop gift card to order online if there is a in-store trade in offer for my one can I still get the money and put it towards my online order?

 

[gamz]

Of course.

 

[Theorry]

So i just need to wait for these pre orders to end for the normal edition?

 

[Kaydan]

Amazon Canada sold out. For now.

Amazon, Best Buy and EB games are all sold out in Canada. I was able to snag one at Walmart before they're all gone. Quantities must have been extremely limited in Canada.

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Can't seem to put an order in on Amazon UK.

Will try again in the morning.
