Where are you getting yours from?

Elvemine · 09-25-2008, 05:08 PM

I'm debating whether to pick up a copy from Gamestop which has the Kratos exclusive costume or Best Buy which has the exclusive Nariko from Heavenly Sword costume. Which one (if any of the above) are you getting?

Kyo · 09-25-2008, 05:37 PM

Get both, buy and res it at gamestop so u can get the kratos code. Pre-order it at bestbuy, get ur free code, keep the reciept and after it comes out go get ur 5 bucks back.

This is what im doing.

Tyche · 09-25-2008, 07:43 PM

Gamecrazy and gamestop. Might go pre-order at bestbuy too, do they give you the code after you pick up the copy, or when you pre-order?

Mikayla · 09-25-2008, 08:30 PM

With Best Buy, you buy a little mock PS3 game case that's shrink wrapped and has the card inside it with the code. Best Buy doesn't take any preorder information like phone numbers or anything. I preordered the copy we actually wanted to buy at Gamestop, got the little scratch card for that when we did, then we just bought the Best Buy one for $5.

Kyo · 09-25-2008, 08:32 PM

The gamestop here you ahve to buy it to get the cod etheir not handing it out prior, so thats why im getting it there, and ill just get my 5 bucks back from best buya s stated above.

Mikayla · 09-25-2008, 08:35 PM

Oh. We're friends with the manager at our Gamestop, he broke the rules and gave us our scratch card early to make sure we got one, lol.

Kyo · 09-25-2008, 08:40 PM

Ive been friends with the store manager for 10 years here and she still wont give it to me lmao, oh well I dont like best buy anyway, so not that bigadeal. I had 400 bucks in store credit at gamestop anyway.

Roranora · 09-25-2008, 11:08 PM

I'm getting one from GameStop for sure and hopefully one from GameCrazy if I can get a friend to get me a LittleBigPouch. And just go get a Nariko code for $5 (or free.. read: keep the receipt for a later refund) if you want to have both. I'll just sell the extra game if I can luck out and score a pouch.

The sticker book from Circuit City and the mini-guide from Amazon.com don't really excite me too much.

Hiryo · 09-26-2008, 12:54 AM

Oh so thats where the Nariko costume is from? Seems i havent been reading the forum as thoroughly as i should >.>
I think i'll buy it from gamecrazy and preorder it from bestbuy. Unless i can get else-wise from work......

Katlan · 09-29-2008, 01:01 PM

I just pre-ordered from gamestop... too lazy to also go to bestbuy and get the other code cause knowing me, I;ll forget to get my 5$ back

Kyo · 09-29-2008, 01:13 PM

Bout time kat.

GraveRobberX · 09-29-2008, 03:50 PM

izembo · 10-04-2008, 07:41 PM

anyone need a kratos code?

Graelinn · 10-04-2008, 09:12 PM

I do =)

izembo · 10-04-2008, 09:28 PM

check your pms

Graelinn · 10-04-2008, 11:21 PM

Thanks Iz! Now, find the code that will bring these damn beta servers back up =( My masterpiece won't create itself!!

Elvemine · 10-06-2008, 02:29 PM

Two more costumes apparently if you get the game from Game Stop. I just saw this thread on the LBP forums... I hope I don't have to make a special trip before release date to pick up the codes for those. I worry that if I wait until release date they will be all gone before I pick up my pre-ordered copy.

http://www.lbpcentral.com/forums/sho...7235#post47235

Can anyone confirm this is true?

izembo · 10-06-2008, 02:34 PM

work at gamestop and havent heard anything about it

Elvemine · 10-06-2008, 02:51 PM

Here is a link to the video someone found...

Mikayla · 10-06-2008, 04:19 PM

I heard about this a while back from my manager friend that works for Gamestop. They're included in the download that's already part of the Kratos code, it includes everything.

Exoduso · 10-15-2008, 03:18 PM

Well I have the Kratos code but I want the Nariko one from BestBuy... however I went to their site and it doesn't even mention anything about the code...

Does it have to be at their B&M stores or can you actually order online?

Pyro · 10-15-2008, 03:21 PM

I think it is the B&M stores only. I never got around to doing it and at this point I almost don't even care. I MAY do it tomorrow since Toys R Us is pissing me off with Dead Space.

Not to be off-topic, but people actually buy video games from Toys R Us?

Kyo · 10-15-2008, 07:11 PM

They have pretty good deals from time to time and this week its buy 2 get 1 free.

Hiryo · 10-15-2008, 07:16 PM

Also new rewards program like bestbuy's little member card thing. Unfortunately its only $5 gift cards every 150 dollars spent, but i guess its a good deal for the fruegal XD
