Best Buy & Geek Squad Policies

[Bigz]

Hey i was wondering how di i pre-order a game in a best buy store.

Because i was gonna go to best buy anyways to buy head phones and i also wanted to pre-order monster hunter Tri and they also finally have teh bundle at bestbuy

so that makes me wanna pre-order it there even more.

So if someone could just tell me step by step how to pre-order a game in the store it will be great

The best thing to do would be to go into the store and speak with one of the employees in the Gaming section, or possibly one of the employes at the front checkout.

A lot of times, for really popular pre-orders, and for pre-orders of special editions, the store will have mock-up boxes that you take to the front counter, pay a small deposit (usually $5 or so), and then that reserves you a copy on launch day, and then you pay the remainder when you pick it up, as long as you bring your pre-order receipt with you.

That's how I pre-ordered God of War III, and I saw similar boxes before BioShock 2 came out, as well as for a number of other games.

All of these mock-boxes are in the gaming section, usually on an end-cap.
