I just wanted to be clear that I wasn't complaining about 24 or 39 bucks. Personaly I'll pay whatever it costs. I would rather preorder it just because who doesn't like saving a little money.
I won't preorder until the 1st just because I told the wife I wouldn't. I got a little carried away with my "phew...taxes are over for another year" celebration in spending money. I still can't believe for the first time in my life I owed this year.
If the game comes out by or before the first then I'll gladly play full price. It doesn't matter to me. Just wanted Markus and crew to know I wasn't balking at the price.
