•GameStop exclusive Insesctoid Airfoil which flaps up to 90 times per second and is ideal for the high-flying hero.

•Level 0 Flight. GameStop customers can utilize the awesome power of flight right at the beginning of Champions Online – something that normally takes users 5 levels to earn!

•Guaranteed access to the Champions Online Open Beta Test, set to start 2 weeks prior to the game's release.

Available for online and in-store customers only while supplies last.

Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Champions-Online-Pc/dp/B0024FA6EY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1247064435&sr=8-1

  • Pre-order today and receive three in-game goods (Harlequin Headpiece, Grenade Chest Strap, and Black Knight Helmet)
  • and five Cryptic Bucks. Directions will be sent within 10 days after the game releases. Offer good while supplies last. Must be sold and shipped by Amazon.com to be eligible. Limit one per customer.

 

 

Things of note --

  1. Cryptic Bucks -- may or may not hint at a microtransaction system
  2. varying bonuses -- costume features versus level 5 bonus power which you can likely get within an hour of play
  3. Amazon bonus limited to 1 per customer; unsure about gamestop.
  4. beta access 2 weeks before launch.

    Interesting but I don't think there has been an official statement from Cryptic in regards to preorders yet ? Maybe I should give Gamestop a call and see about that card. Hmm...

    Not that I'm aware of but apparently people are buying the pre-orders already...at least form amazon.  I bolded the one offer per customer because someone specifcally pre-ordered 2 copies but could only get 1 code for the helms.
