We received an e-mail from GameStop with information regarding the pre-order bonus for Call of Duty: Black Ops. Following is the contents of that e-mail as well as the thoughts I had as I read it (in italics):
GameStop announced today a pre-order bonus for the upcoming installment in the biggest action video game series of all time, Call of Duty: Black Ops.
[Whoop-dee-doo. Probably nothing.]
You have to wait until November to play the game, but if you want this bonus, you can’t wait to pre-order.
[What? Wait… I’m going to be that excited by this?]
Only the first 300,000
[Christ, that seems like a lot of people]
fans who pre-order at GameStop will get the exclusive two-sided Black Ops poster.
[Poster? Well, I’m motivated. Whoop-dee-doo.]
Yup. Pre-order Call of Duty: Black Ops at GameStop and get a free poster. A two-sided poster.
