Cool. I'm going with GAME too, then. Thanks for the info.

You must have spoken to the one person who had a clue at Game, virtually all the people I spoke to there didn't even know about it. I did find what I wanted at Game Station though.

i had to tell my local game what the pre order boxes were and when they came out....wow, you got the GURU, man

Still no sign of it in New Hampshire!

They have yet to confirm what extras are going to be included in the CE for factions. Gaile did confirm that Divine Aura would carry over from the original GW to new characters on merged accounts, but was unsure if Divine Aura would be a feature to those who purchased Factions CE as their first CE.

I am waiting on the specifics as well to see which to pick up.

Well grats on getting it, I still haven't got mine - I called best buy beacuse it's in anoter city and i dont want to drive there and it possibly not be there, but i got no answer

Anyhow, any ideas on if wal-mart would receive these pre-order packages?

JBak · Mar 04, 2006, 09:21 PM // 21:21

Doesn't say anything on how to get a CE pre-order box.

Rayea · Mar 04, 2006, 09:36 PM // 21:36

tis the same as getting a standard game pre order box, i beleave...
you just tell the game store that you want the collectors editon rather than the standard,
and the pre order box ect is part of the ordering thing rather than the going into the store on release day and buying it thing

if your like me, and your local game store is your friends, they might sugest you pre order both a copy of standard AND CE, so they have a spare to sell on when you want the ce and not the standard ^^
(best when you only have to actually buy one copy of the game and they want a spare they can sell on, without having to order specialy..)

sry for any confusion but i did state that i did it online.you don't need to do it yet you can just wait for the box to come instore but i wanted the free beta access key to add to my free account from the pvp weekend as i have no room to play the beta otherwise.also realy looking forward to getting my free poster i'm sure the wife won't mind me pinning it on my wall

i live in the U.S.A. (midwest to be exact). i went to gamestop today and reserved my copy of guild wars factions. but the guy behind the counter just gave me a reciept and said "the game is coming out april 29th"... so when do i get my preorder package and all that stuff? and will i actually get a physical box before the game release with my key, book, and quick refernce card in it?

Actually hating my EBGAMES in Maryland, at Bowie Town center, seems they will never get the pre-order package.

Mr_eX · Mar 05, 2006, 12:55 AM // 00:55

The Best Buy in Norwalk, CT (Fairfield County) has the pre-order boxes in stock as well.

My local EB Games (Westport, CT) had no idea what I was talking about when I asked them about the pre-order boxes.

Best of luck to everybody who hasn't picked one up yet.

Dmc1281 · Mar 05, 2006, 01:19 AM // 01:19

You know, I was at the Norwalk Best Buy yesterday and they had no clue about them.

Where abouts were they, I tore through the entire software section, this was in the afternoon/evening, unless they got them in in the morning.

I had to explain to EB games what the preorder kit was, and they still said it would be out with the game april 28th.

Thanks for the tip Iggk - that's a bit south for me but they must be headed in our direction - I will check again tomorrow.

Thanks again!

JBak · Mar 05, 2006, 01:39 AM // 01:39

What you did was pre-order the GAME, not buy the pre-order package. You gotto go out and buy the package itself.

I'm an EB Games person too. I don't have mine yet either, and they haven't called me. But at least the guy knew what I was talking about and stated that even though I "pre-ordered" before the pre-order package was released, I'd still get the package. A little bit of hope.

Nevin · Mar 05, 2006, 05:13 AM // 05:13

Okay, I Pre-Ordered online from EB games, I got the link in another thread..

Anyways, I sent them a question about how they'll give the Pre-Order people the chance to play 24 hours before the official release of Guild Wars: Factions, then sent back (By E-mail)

Hello Nevin,

Thank you for contacting EBgames.com.

This did absolutely nothing for me, does anyone know what the basic way for most gaming industries to distribute the CD-Key is? And if anyone has ordered from EB Games online, could you clerify if they send a CD-Key in advance by E-mail?
