Pre-order bonuses

PowerlordPowerlord
edited October 2010 in Poker Night at the Inventory / Poker Night 2
So, I see this game can be preordered from either Telltale or Steam.

Since I already have everything else I want from Telltale, should I just preorder through Steam (which offers 10% off the game like they do on all preorders)?

I ask more for other people, so we don't end up with the TF2 hat problem like we did for Sam & Max... this game is far more likely to have TF2-related pre-order bonuses than Devil's Playhouse was.

    You do realize the 10% only makes it 50 cents cheaper? I say it is still worth buying on telltale's site.

    I collossaly suck at poker, but because Strong Bad & Max are in it, I have to buy it.

    I bought steam becuase I like having things on steam and am goign to buy on tt.com for 25% off a big order I plan to make.

    I did the same for sam and max and strong bad just because I like things on steam and I like discs. I have a problem.

    I say the game is so cheap why not buy in both stores.

    I don't think there's gonna be any bonuses.

    We already have Sam and Max items, and Valve has no rights to Homestar Runner OR Penny Arcade.

    omg. as i couldn't decide between the comfort of steam and letting the dev's have all the money they deserve... i bought it on steam AND from telltale.

    that's eh.. my way of confession without a priest.. (no, i DON'T pirate games)

    Ah but what about a poker visor for the Heavy to wear? Can't rule out all the hat related possibilities

    A TF2 hat would be a nice bonus, but a free episode from one of Telltale's games would be even better. :)

    Or you could just buy the rest of the telltale seasons. To be honest I was sick of all the free episodes, the 25% off extra stuff SHOULD be good enough.

    I'd say a nice little in-game option for changing the cards to fit different franchises would work.
    I.E.
    Ace: DivX, Homsar, Scout, Sam
    2: Gabe, Strong Sad, Spy, Sybil
    Etc.
    Although, they'd have hard times figuring out more than 12 characters for PA and TF2

    Same characters, different costumes / hats etc.

    Yeah, I pre-purchased the game over Steam and realised afterwards that there was no need to rush when it was only 50 cents off.

    Read that PNatI is a Steamworks game? If so, I'll now have it available from both sources. Though, not sure about how pre-ordery hatitude would be handled, buying it TTG-side. Hopefully it'll be like Alien Swarm, where you get a hat from playing the game (or, in AS's case, watching others play it, heh).

    I, as a person who never got the oirignal TDP TF2 items, would personally buy PNatI on both places if the Steam version gave out the old Sam and Max TF2 items.

    You have to be 13 or older to have a Steam account.

    You can't lie on the internet. The internet is omniscient.

    No, in his case it would be "account sharing" (since his dad would own the account) which is still against Steam's ToS...

    Because it would cost me twice as much to get the same product

    You guys...

    Enthusiasm like that's special. I however couldn't live with myself at wasting an extra £3 unecessarily.

    If you bought it on Steam as well you'd do well to gift it so someone who wouldn't get it, let them experience the magicks
