Any Stores carrying Nightfall Prerelease yet?

I know it's not out until tomorrow, but all the stores I've called don't even have it coming in tomorrow.

Best Buy says it's coming on 9/24 (next Sunday).

Just post here if you've seen or heard of a store carrying the pre-order.

(I live in San Antonio, TX, but am curious about all locations)

In the Netherlands, Dynabyte and Dimension Plus seem to have it. I'm pretty sure about Dynabyte, since I've bought it there today

OK, Europe is going crazy with Nightfall pre-order.

How about America? Any sightings here yet?

Got mine in Brantford, Ontario, Canada. Woot.

I just went into an EB Games in Atlanta GA to preorder the CE and they did not have the preorder package yet, but they said it could come in before the end of the day and to check back. I will probably drop by on the way home from work.

Any idea where to pick up a bonus pack in NYC?

Best Buy said, they will get it probably (?) on 09/24/06, at Game Stop (EBgames) they did not even know, that there is anything like a bonus pack (both stores in Chelsea).

This is crazy. Does everyone else in the world have it except the USA?

for factions, best buy had it on the day it was 'supposed' to come out. the nightfall preorder is 'supposed' to come out today, and even though on the website it said the 24th, i wouldnt be surprised if they have it this weekend.

It's really a two-part question...

Who has the pre-release pack?
--and--
What price are they charging?

I've seen stores that are charging $10 for just the pre-release (Best Buy, for example). And others that are bundling the pre-release + Nightfall for $55 ($5 + $50 respectively).... but you'll have to wait until October 27th to get them both.

For me, I'm mostly interested in the character slot. Most of the other stuff (screenies, the 90-second song, etc.) will show up on the fan sites within a few days. At least the two weapons are max. dmg this time 'round.

All the same, if that extra slot is going to cost $10 + sales tax + gas + drive time...
...or just $10 via the online store: Hello online store.

I got mine at Compusa. I was going to get it at Bestbuy but they didn't have it in yet so I drove down the street to Compusa. They do the bonus pack deal the same as Bestbuy except they only charge $5 for it instead of $10.



I got there an hour after they opened and there were only three copies left O.o

Oooohhh... Thanks for the info, Knightsaber!

For $5 I'll hop in the car.

If you bring in the receipt from the prerelease pack when you buy the full retail version, they take the $5 off so the bonus pack is actually free.

Thanks for the insight Pathfinder. I only want the pack for the Bonus slot as well, don't really care about the rest. I had thought the the pack was going to sell for 5.99 (thought I saw that here before, but could be wrong).
So if you are right and it is $10, I'll also just use the on-line store for the slot.

I'm having the same thing. I feel a Factions fiasco comming on. Yanno, the one where the retailers have no clue as to what you asking for?

ha...just called compusa...they know nuthin about it...

I doubt anyone in my area is on these forums... closest major cities are pittsburgh and cleveland... but the Gamestop here said Tuesday (19th?) which makes me think the same thing for people in the pittsburgh area.... cleveland and buffalo? cant help ya, youre in a different state.

Then I guess I'm lucky that my Compusa is in the know; cause I'm stylin!

grrr.. showoff!

You suck.

Just kidding, Thanks for the info and pics, Knightsaber!

Today is the 15th of September and I called up my local EB Games to see if they had the preorder packages for Nightfall to only find out that it is not like how Factions was done.

With Factions you went in and prepaid for your game and you got the preorder package which included some documents and a disk along with some keys to input so you could get your preoder items which where if you remember where those garbage blue weapons that where not even max stats. Then when the game actually came out you went in and picked up your game disks.

So anyways, I am talking to them and even called EB head office and Nightfall is just a preorder with no bonuses. Howevere if you pay an additional 4.99 you can get what they are calling a bonus pack which includes the same as factions however it also comes with an extra character slot. But even so if you get this bonus pack you are not guranteed Nightfall unless you also preorder.

Now some points I would like to make.


Some Math roughly estimated. Factions was 59.99 and included all the bonus stuff such as two blue crappy items and the extra video disk and such. Nightfall is going to cost 59.99 plus an additional 4.99 for the bonus pack to get extra character slot along with crappy blue items and a lame disk.

Just preordering will not get you the two crappy items like Factions did.

This is in Canada.

When you go in make sure you say preorder and get Nightfall actually preordered because buyng the bonus pack is not a preorder and does not gurantee you a copy on the release date.

And a thought for you to decide upon. Is it really worth 4.99 for an extra chracater slot, a disk with small videos (factions preorder cd was lame) and two crappy blue items that you will use up to lvl 10 if that and then no longer use?

In my opinion I say no and it seems to me this is just their way of trying to push an extra character slot on us.

I have no idea why they didn't do it the same as factions and because of this I will not be preordering which means gives me more time to listen to others opinions about the game and such which may steer me from even buying the expansion (yeah yeah they say a stand alone game but look at factions lol, that was an expansion no matter what they say).
