GameStop/EB: PreOrder Card & Online info

GameStop LBP PreOrder

Today I got a chance to go to my local GameStop to go ask if they got the preorder bonus to redeem SackBoy Kratos. The employee that answered my question said they do have it so I give him my phone number and put five dollars down for the game. From what he told me, they received the promotional vouchers this past week. You may share the costume up to 5 PS3 systems per account. So for those that are not lucky enough to snag a voucher at their local store, you might be lucky enough to have someone share theirs with you.

So for those that want SackBoy Kratos, err SackManGod Kratos, head out to your local GameStop or EBGames to see if the little Sacketeers snagged them all. A little advice, call the store you are about to go to because you know that gas is really high right now and you do not want to spend around four dollars a gallon for a refill.

Preorder instructions after the jump!

  • Is anyone willing to share one of the 5 downloads with me? My local EB games completely screwed me over when I picked up my pre-order today. When I first pre-ordered they said they'd give it to me on the day of pickup. Today when I got it they simply said 'Sorry' we don't have any for you...

    Needless to say I'm pissed right off.

    I received the card but when I enter in the code, it says that it's invalid or expired. Do I have to wait for the game to come out before I enter the code?

    X: When did you preorder? Before they announced the bonus item and/or before they announced the week that your local store should get them?

    Kratos10: Same answer I gave X but you should of got one if

    1) You preordered after they announced the bonus item
    2) Your local store has it in stock.

    The best thing to do is either go to your store and ask if they have any left and if they do, ask if they would let you give it to you. They most likely ask for proof and you would either your receipt or just give them your information.

    Another thing you could do is cancel your current preorder and preorder again at the same store if they have it or if they didn't believe you the first time which I think they should. Or cancel and preorder at a different place that has it in stock.

    Best thing to do is call first and ask and if you can't then just go to the store.
