Pre-ordered games?

So, I have Pre-ordered mw3 a few months back, but now I'm after the hardened edition. I was just reading up then on a few other forums, and alot of people say you can receive the game like a day earlier then the release date if you Pre-order it?

Has this ever happened to anyone on this forum?
If so what game, and where did you buy it?

Thanks!

 

No, just ensures you get it on the first day since stock tends to finish quickly.

 

It's really rare you get it early, and normally if you do it's the postal service's fault, not that you pre-ordered it.

 

I would really like this to come early lol, anyone else Pre ordered it?

 

I've pre-ordered MW3 I ordered Black Ops before and it came a day early :3

 

But don't forget; steam servers will probably be flooded on the day of release and you'll have a hard time downloading it.
That's why I prefer retail
a lot cheaper (in my country,) too.

 

You WILL not get it early.
Check out WoodysGamertag on youtube, has done multiple livestreams and such of him trying to get it early(not through preorder ofc).


To the above post, what makes you think he's getting it on PC?

Offtopic, any Australians getting MW3 on PC? If so best place to order is either Harvey Norman($72) or Ozgameshop.com($50? but ships from the UK).
