Sad but predictable. Gamestop will still remain a thing for literally as long as preorder bonuses still exist. |

GameStop isn't a brick and mortar store...in fact, it IS a big box store, though it just has a lit to compete with these days as opposed to being the undisputed king of the street it was a decade ago. |

So, is that a good thing? I mean, Google not getting their hands on it is but, is this still good or just the lesser of two evils? |

I dunno man, I thought Content ID was a pretty sure sign Google had Twitch at some point. Maybe Amazon just bought it from Google? *shrug* |

I don't have a source, but I heard that Amazon actually outbid Google at some point and that is why they have Twitch. |

Wrong thread? =V All the same, I really don't understand the insistence on publishers making any kind of digital content preorderable, much less DLC. Preordering exists in the first place because retail supply didn't meet demand (and even that considered most of the big hitters have learnt from that and sent out huge amounts of stock in advance) - the concept of "supply" doesn't exist in the digital medium unless the place you buy it from suddenly disappears, and that's just not going to happen within launch week in any circumstance. All they want is your money in advance before you've had a chance to regret a purchace. |
