Does the BF3 Pre-order Bonus Give an Unfair Advantage at Launch?

Where pre-order bonuses are concerned, I can love 'em or hate 'em. If the bonuses that gamers get aren't detrimental to the gameplay, and can later become acquired by the rest of us, I don't have a big deal with it. But when publishers offer pre-order bonuses that can award gamers a big advantage over the competition on day one, then I consider it to be a problem. It's even worse when there is more than one pre-order bonus, based on the store. Ugh!

Agreed. I also think there lack of Steam preorder for BF3 and ME3 is retarded as well, but there is no arguing with crazy.

After I get my 3 monitors and Stand for them I will start buying games again. Until then this has to be on hold. I am going to get it from Amazon though, not going to be forced to get it through EA's Origin exclusive digital service because there a bunch of retards making ever one take a step back and go to physical media because they want to stick it to Steam and all the online distros but C'est la vie.
