Gamestop has already showed what they are giving users away if they pre-order Sonic Generations from them, what about GAME? UK’s massive game retailer?
- Casino Night’ Pinball Stage: Exclusive stage. Same one that US Gamestop will be giving users. Based off the level with the same name from Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
- Super Sonic Costume: Xbox 360 exclusive. Gives your avatar the iconic Super Sonic Costume.
- Exclusive theme: Deck out your dashboard with awesome looking theme, created exclusively for this promotion.
Now all users know what they will get if they pre-order the game at either Gamestop or GAME. So what are you waiting for?

I freaking hate GameStop. Amazon is so much better *sigh* =(
I pre-ordered mine at GameStop the moment I heard about the Casino Night stage. Looking forward to it!
I'm totally pre-ordering at GameStop, picking up in-store on the day of and (if I can swing it) taking off the next day of work to play.
Game Stop promises this kind of pre-order stuff. Whenever I get there to pick up the game, either they have run out of whatever it is, or they don't know what I'm talking about. I've never gotten anything extra from them except their crappy magazine.
In this case, the code should be emailed to online customers and printed on the receipt for in-store customers. I've been screwed in the past when it came to physical items. Despite pre-ordering SA2 and hitting the store quite early, they were out of the birthday pack because they gave it to anybody who bought the game and did NOT put a birthday pack aside for pre-order customers. Really shitty. I pre-ordered and paid ahead, and yet they required me to be there first thing in the morning to get the bonus item. Thankfully, I found one on ebay that same day for just $10.
But have yet to have GS mess up a DLC code.
Yeah, I haven't tried DLC yet/. Mostly I've missed out on art books and that sort of thing.
That's my issue with GameStop too. I might as well order online and pay their stupid shipping fees because I'll never get the bonus if I order it in store.
It's sad they can't get the pinball physics right to have a pinball gimmick of some sort in the game itself. Halfpiping between 2 slopes is so 90's -_-
Guess I'm going to be preordering from Gamestop then….(sigh.)
