    Okay, so I was wondering if anyone would have a clue about the situation I am in. I want to pre-order MOH Warfighter & COD Black Ops 2 in order to get the content included if you pre-order, but I won;t be around until December to actually get the games.

    Is it possible to pre-order them now and still get them and the content that far after launch?

    Maybe someone who works in HMV orr GameStop might have an idea?

    Thanks for any help.

    When I preordered Borderlands 2 in HMV, they said they would hold it for a week after launch before releasing it. Not sure about other shops.

    You'd probably miss out to be honest. They'll hold the preorder for a limited time, but if it's something in huge demand you may not even get the week. If you had a chat with the manager to explain situation you might be lucky, but it's a long shot.

    You could just pre-order it online and get it shipped to you.

    Thanks guys. I think I will pre-order them online. On a side note, Is it just me or are games getting more expensive. €57.45 for COD BLOPS2 from zavvi and I don't even know if they will charge delivery yet.

    you could try gamesnash , he posts on here and might be able to help you out.

    as for the price of games , they are alot cheaper than they were 3 or 4 years ago, but i'm sure at launch there will be plenty of places cheaper than that.

    Pre-order in shop and have someone else pick it up for you?

    Had the missus pick up one or two pre-orders for me before.

    The RRP of most games in 65-70 euros, shops have just reduced them in recent years. Also they know CoD is going to sell so the price is high.

    Plus Gamesnash are doing a Boardsies deal with Black Ops 2in the link below. Looks like BLOPS 2 is gonna be expensive across the board cuz they know people will pay for it.
