I’ve never been a fan of pre-ordering a game, usually because the incentive (in my opinion) isn’t good enough, with the exception being DLC. However, Amazon seems to be making a strong argument for me to change my opinion, because they are offering Amazon credit, which can be used towards a future purchase.
Already know your going to be buying Portal 2 or Gears of War 3? Might as well take advantage of the $20 bonus, which brings the game basically down to $40.
Here are the best Amazon deals for Pre-orders, sorted by how much of a credit they are offering:
