Makes more sense than digital game preorders, right? You get to guarantee your seat in a theater on a specific day.

    I mean…. Game preorders seem weird too. But at least you could be excited to play some new game with friends, probably all over the world.

    Im sure there is something to be said for seeing a movie on opening night and all, but doesn’t have near the same luster to me.

    Game pre-orders make less sense. The worst time to buy a game is at launch. It's the most expensive it will ever be and the least functional it will ever be. At least with a movie, you guarantee that you will get to see a movie at a certain time.
