Wow, first socks for a pre-order bonus for Fallout 4 now it's pizza as a pre-order bonus for Xenoblade Chronicles X. What will they come up with next? I mean I won't lie, this bonus is a little bit better and interesting than what they are offering for Fallout 4. But I still feel like they need to come up with something better.

I'm scared when I preorder Star Fox Zero and Final Fantasy Explorers from there. Probably gonna give me some doughnuts or some jeans.

Murica. In Australia's EB Games, you get two posters and a featured music CD.

No, I feel like this is the best that Best Buy could offer. I mean, who cares about an artbook or some free DLC with a preorder when you can have a cheese pizza?

I'm with you on that one.

I just started working at Best Buy too omg

*gently pats* You poor thing.

If you want a bonus with X, just get the Special Edition. This is weird, yes, but pre-order bonuses shouldn't be the sole reason something is pre-ordered, anyway. Besides, not gonna lie, getting a free pizza (or money towards one) tossed in for pre-ordering a game I've been planning on getting for years sounds kinda cool.

The artbook's in the Special Edition, and all of the DLC is reportedly free in the West anyway.

Are you sure these things are even real?  They seem way too cheesy.

....okay seriously, who the heck is in charge of Best Buy's marketing and promotional strategies!? I mean seriously, it wasn't enough to go "...I don't know, give em a pair of...socks, or something, I don't care, they'll buy it anyway", but are you seriously telling me somebody actually said "Pfff, whatever, just give them a pizza or something"!? I mean...I...I...

 

Ugh, Pearl help me out here.

Actually, there's a race of aliens in the game that's addicted to pizza, so this does tie into the game. Also, I'd like to reiterate to everyone here: Free. Food. Why would anyone complain about that when it's okay in other places? If you want a special bonus with this game, get the Special Edition. Not that many people on this forum are going to get this game anyway, so I don't get why so many people are complaining.

But I love pizza!

Well, that actually might be a fun job since it kind of is a gaming store. I wish you the best of luck working there Aqua.

Yeah true. And like I said, this pre-order bonus is pretty decent. But I just wish they came up with something cooler. But that's just me.

This is rather strange, but you can't argue with getting free Pizza! (Coming from someone who can't eat Pizza without going into a flare up.)

I'd really like to see the statistic on how many people pre-ordered this game at Best Buy once it's out.

It really depends on how you look at it.

 

On the one hand, you're getting a voucher for something that you'll have for 15-30 minutes and then it won't be there anymore.

 

On the other hand, pizza is awesome, gimme!

 

Though I don't play either Borderlands or Xenoblade so I wouldn't know if it's truly worth it or not.

Everyone who wants to get something bonus with the game can just get the Special Edition, which most massive Xenoblade fans have already pre-ordered. This pizza offer doesn't go along with the Special Edition, but it'd be a nice thing to have tossed in. Personally, I'm getting pretty much all of the stuff I could want in the Special Edition (And depending on how many PowerUp Rewards points I get for it, I might even be able to get the poster on GameStop's reward site, meaning that I'd still be getting something extra out of breaking my personal rules and giving GameStop any money when it comes to something Xenoblade related and paying extra money for it while I could have pre-ordered from Best Buy and gotten it for 20%-30% off), but if I could get the pizza tossed in, I'd be fine with that, too. Of course, it's not like I'll be eating for a while after I get this game anyway, but maybe I could find the time for a free/massively discounted pizza.

Most people who are part of Best Buy's gaming club probably will, seeing as how they get something like 20% off of all new games. I would have pre-ordered from them if GameStop's orders hadn't gone up first, and I wasn't hurrying to pre-order the SE since Amazon sold out in a couple hours.

Thanks. It's pretty cool. Management is awesome. The training is an absolute drag tho omg. I never read so much in my life.

A pizza...? Well i could enjoy the game and eat some Pizza.

 

Really i think Best Buy is getting weirder with preorders this season.

Pre-order bonuses are overrated anyway tbh. I can see why one would might as well pre-order from a specific place to get a bonus with their game, but in that case there are plenty more options so I can't find fault with this- I mean at least they're giving you something (and 20% off isn't bad). 

I'd buy that for the pizza if I had a Wii U. You can never go wrong with pizza.

... what kind of pizza? might convince me to pre-order this game.

"But wait! Order now, and get ONE EXTRA FREE TOPPING!"

Do not worry, Best Buy could offers many of the best artbook.
