i don't really understand the hype and why people pre.order stuff..,
i mean if there are good rewards about it, ok you may think about that... but otherwise i don't see it really productive...
"I'ts to make sure i get it" you want to avoid item shortage, but keep in mind, some companies (if not most of them) create a false scarcity demand... so you need to remember the fact you can't get one in day 1-2-3 is the bullshit that brand is throwing at you (which you should even use that as an hint to hold it even more)
"everyone has it, so why don't i also have it", the fact to "fit" in the society, you don't want to be behind, you want to talk with others about the lastest new thing, you want to play with others while they are still interesting in the game... etc...
i can't think of others but they are all superficial...
or maybe i am just a cheapskate...
i mean, i have money saved for a new computer, my old one is dead. and i was needing an upgrade... i really could use it now, and i am so hyped because finally i will get an upgrade and play newest pc games (and the tons of old games i couldn't play before)...
and i am just holding for it, i could buy it next week, but i have an "hunch" that next month prices will drop, and i will wait and see... (this way not only i have even more saved up money and can get even more stuff, but i get stuff for cheaper..
Yea as said thats just me. I read about stuff i want and will preorder it and get it at launch. Nothing to do with anyone else. Its just how i always done it. I know what i want and why not get it as soon as it comes out. I dont buy into hype or sold out stuff.
