Lately I’ve been seeing more virtue signaling from gamers warning each other to not pre order upcoming games. What are you 5 years old lol you need reminders from internet strangers to not spend your money on a series that burned you in the past?

    I haven’t pre-ordered a game since Halo 2.

    Midnight release, hundreds of gamers waiting in line at GameStop, telling stories, trading gamertags, having fun…

    Games going digital killed the social aspect of pre-orders, since now you just push a button and you have the game. No worries about copies running out and having to drive a city over to the Kmart no one shops at to find one in stock.
