Would be all over this if Game let me use the store credit I've built up in their online store.

A really irritating policy.

Actually I know a trick where you can use your gift card credit (you get from in-store via trade-ins etc) online. I've been doing this for a while.
You basically order anything that adds up the value of the product MINUS £1 (this is important - otherwise the e-voucher won't work). Then you immediately cancel the order and within 10 minutes you will be sent an e-voucher which can be used for pre-orders.

For example, this is how I pre-ordered Tomb Raider just now.
I ordered 2x pokemon rumble at £16.99 each. This totals around £34.
I immediately cancel the order via the order screen. I wait 10 minutes for the e-vouchers.
Once you get your vouchers, you use them to pre-order Tomb Raider. You then need to pay £1 either by reward points or debit card. It can't be a gift card.

Thats it.

some people are born bellends lol

I'm sure I saw on the website it came with some DLC :\ But on the game under Marketplace, on the second tab it has add-ons and has pre-order on there so that's probably it!

When do you normally receive the pre-ordered bonus?

Will they be able to offer me the game at the price I had before they cancelled? I had the coupon from here so £34.99 but it's no longer valid.

Mine got dispatched early this evening.

Just had my order fail its asking me to go to the website and re-order but this code isnt working anymore I dont think.

I've used the same details for the last few months all went through without any issue lots of smaller and bigger ammounts than this all fine, Ive never had a failed pre-order on Game ever! Is this linked to the same problem as Fallout 4 Pip-Boy?

crazy to think over 2 and a half years ago I was posting a pre order deal for tomb raider 2013 for £27.99 hahah! where does the time go. wish this was the same price lol. best it's going to get though with xbox one still fairly new and all. heat.

Question: Will Amazon pricematch Game even with the coupon added? I'm guessing not..

Can confirm the evoucher trick works. I had £70 on my game wallet, went to store today and got £34.99 put on gift card then ordered mortal kombat online using gift card, cancelled this then received evoucher through email then used to order tomb raider. Game need to sort it out so you can pre order with trade in credit as doing this all the time is a ball ache.

Seriously, when do game charge your card?

You can use that but not a gift card which is silly ....

How long is this promo code going to last?

Late 2016 for PS4. absolutely ridiculous.

There are one too many idiots who will spoil it for PS4 gamers too. I hope this launch seriously fails.

thanks for this

Didn't think of that
Thank you
I may just do that

Sorted. I had no cancel option as I'd ordered a single item.

Have since spoken to their Live Chat and had the evouchers issued - pre ordered several items and can now see the cancel buttons!

Basically make sure you order more than 1 item so you can cancel online yourself!

Just got mine for £30 uing this as it is £35 today

All I can see is: Order FAQ, Lost order, Returns and Contact Us.
Am I missing something?

Just go to my orders then click order details then cancel.
By the way, only order physical goods (that are sold by GAME themselves) if you want to cancel and get e-vouchers. I didn't mention it earlier because its common sense they don't refund digital goods.

How do you cancel your iorder with Game, I don't see any cancel button?

What you need to do is go to Game and have them put the Wallet amount on a Gift Card.

It's a pain, but I can verify that Gift Card - Online purchase - cancel = E-Voucher that can be used to preorder works.

I'm never getting anything put on Game Wallet again.

Actually, I think I'm going to stop using Game full stop, it's ALWAYS a hassle buying stuff from them, if you don't want to pay through the nose.

Thanks again to Pikachu for explaining this workaround, and to StuartHanley who DM'd me with the info too.

Do GAME charge now or on dispatch?

29.99 on Xbox too. But will drop within 3 to 4 weeks as last release did despite being great.

Yes, this only applies to GAME gift card, since when you cancel payment of a gift card, they will send e-vouchers to replace it.

Would be all over this if Game let me use the store credit I've built up in their online store.

A really irritating policy.

Last tomb raider was great.

Cheers op, ordered.

This is how i do mine now, so much better - store trade in price matched with cex, and then purchase the cheaper online price.... win win

Does that only work for game gift cards?
I tried using Game wallet and it just refunded me back into my game wallet, so I'm back to where I started

Not on pre orders unfortunately, I'm in the same situation, with a bunch of credit on my game card :/
I don't wanna pay instore prices either, it'll be around £50!

Amazing! Thanks man!

Heat added, this is gonna be awesome

Cheers OP, the last one was awesome. Ordered and heat added.

some people are born bellends lol

Do I buy this now and an Xbox separately or wait for the Tomb Raider console bundle?

Tomb raider is my favourite game ever, can't wait for it to come out on pc

Great price.

The game is expected to be out Q1 2016 on PC, and Q4 2016 on PS4. Even though I loved TR, I'm not going to downgrade to an Xbox to play it.

Is this an "exclusive" exclusive or "exclusive for about a year or two then will be on ps4"?

Well I certainly used mine when I pre-ordered earlier.

I used my reward credit tho.

Thanks, I'll be enquiring about this. They have put £3.99 on top of every item I asked them to compare from Anazon.

Can't use it on pre orders .... Once the game comes out you can use gift cards or game wallet codes it's dumb ..... But they have always been like this

Nope free delivery

Did they add delivery charge on top? I'm a Prime member but Bespoke always whack on around £4 for delivery from Amazon to their calculation so after they have "beaten" the price it is hardly ever lower than Amazon?

Great price, OP,
Mine cost £34.59 from Bespoke Offers (beating Tesco)

Ordered and voted hot

thanks for the tip, as I understand it, you still can't place online preorders with credit though?

Sorry was meant to say next year lol

Looks like it'll be time to dust off the Xbone, not getting a lot of use as I prefer to buy multi-platform games for the PS4.

you can use instore credit online now.Ive done it a lot recently

promotional code isn't working for me :-(

nice price for new game, but not a day one for me, got halo, cod and battlefront on the multiplayer front.

Still have witcher, batman and mgs to complete.

And will definitely be buying fallout day one, so this will be well into the new year at bargain bucket price

Demand musnt be as high as MS had hoped if its RRP at £40 already at GAME the biggest ripoffs around . Still a great deal for the game.

This game can get knotted, I'll pick it up when it's in the bargain bin. Can't stand AAA titles that stick microtransaction in, don't care hoe "optional" they are. People keep buying these game's are just giving developers and publishers more reason to keep pushing them into game's, until one day we buy a AAA game and microtransaction are essential to completing the game.

Good price £35 is the biting point maybe more if it had free dlc

I got offered it for 32 quid through bespoke

Great price for a physical copy. Of course, if you have someone you can share with digitally then it'd only be around £17 each from Singapore, but otherwise this is sound.

Awesome, Can't wait, So pleased I opted for Xbone as I love TR.

Ordered!

Great price!

nice find op, heat
