urgent distress call


Victory Element

Recommended Posts

:excl: i am in tough jam right now and i really need help, so please bear with me and provide some assistance.

 

Being the good halo fan that i am, i failed to pre order the halo 4 LE early enough. I requested it in september around the time of my birthday, but due to family issues, that didnt happen. I will not get into detail on that. But earlier this week, i went to Best Buy to place a last minute preorder, and i discovered that the pre orders had sold out. For 3 days now, i have searched the internet and made calls, looking for a place to get the LE, but it is sold out everywhere. :cray:

 

I am only left with two options now...

 

i can pre order the standard edition to get pre order skins, and purchase the season pass DLC

or

i can wait until the release date and check stores to see if they received any extra copies of the LE in their inventory

 

 

either way, i learned my lesson not to wait so long, but i really need help with this decision.

 

i know this community can help me make the right choice, so please leave a response

You could always pre-order off of Ebay...there a quite a few LE's listed on Ebay at the moment and from the listings it looks like they will ship as soon as they Launch on Nov. 6th. You may not get the game right away but you will still get the LE.

If you wanted to make a gamble I would go for one anywhere besides a video game store such as Gamestop, EB Games, etc. Where I'm from I don't expect a lot of people going to Walmart for Halo 4 and a friend of mine will go to Walmart on release night to get a copy. They usually have some but don't hold me to that. You may be in a completely different situation with expectations for game sales at places like Walmart, Target, etc.

 

If you don't want to gamble and willing to wait a little while, I second Tallgeese's suggestion and pre order from Ebay.

I just went to bestbuy and the lady suggested going to the midnight release. I would go but idk if my mom will let me.

 

if a store obtained any extra copies, then i would have to snag it quick. Maybe go out at midnight to best buy, and have my dad go to gamestop as a failsafe. But no guaruntees for either

If you want to be one of the first ones there you will have to go out before midnight. Not too sure when though as I have never been to one of these before. :D

i dont think there will be a huge wait. And i assume it will only be those who are picking up pre orders

Well when reach came out I was there at 10, and I was in the middle o the line, I am going to show up this year between 8 and 9 to hopefully be near te frot of the line. Midnight Launch of Halo is always big, i would expect a big line anywhere you go
