    Yeah, I only ever pre-order when bonuses are officially announced, and the collector's edition(s) are all sorted out. Doing it now just complicates things.
    Now with 10% less terrible posting and 100% more lies in signatures.

    If Origin is the only mean of pre-ordering here where I live, I don't pre-order, I buy the DVD version.

    Generals 2 is using DirectX 11, I think, and it does not support Win XP, so you have to get Vista or 7, 7 is recommended.
    See both minimum and recommended system requirements here http://wiki.generals2.org/index.php?...m_Requirements

    Pre-order it one month before release. Then you can decide which preorder bonus you want.

    Seriously? If they really make this into a Mass Effect thing I will boycott the game. Retailer exclusives are retarded. And don't get me started on paid day one DLC.

    This goes against everything I believe in as a human being. Mass Effect 3 is a no-no for me.

    i hate it when there are retailer exclusives aswel. if your missing out on content because you went to 1 shop and got their bonus but cant get another shops bonus onless you buy a copy from them is terrible.

    not so bothered if its a general preorder bonus thats universal to all shops as id just get that (providing the game looks good)

    will be interesting if there is a collectors edition or not (soundtrack would be a good addition choice)

    I'd say given EA's attitude on preordering and various bonuses you should wait. You really have to evaluate all of the various preorder methods (through different mediums) as they often provide different bonuses.
    I'd say wait. But you can of course cancel if you want (as other have said).

    I actually agree with Agm on this one. This was my general thinking as I went down the page. There's no benifit to pre-ordering now rather than in a few months time. It's still coming out in 2013 no matter what. Might as well wait to see what you get.
