Talk about NBA 2K13 here.

Preorder PC Download Version through Amazon - 10% Off

Postby JaoSming on Sun Sep 02, 2012 10:57 am

Evidently we can now preorder PC download games at Amazon. Currently the deal is a whole 10% off ($3) but I guess it will be up for download right at 3am EST.

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B008EYQXL4/

Remember, no preorder bonus for PC.
Opinions are my own.

Great stuff. That translates to under 22 euros. Should get some money on my prepaid and get this ASAP. Plus, Amazon says that if the price lowers even more, you're guaranteed to pay the lowest one.

I'm usually wary of pre-ordering anything before reading user reviews, but who am I kidding... I would buy this on Steam the minute it's released, probably won't be able to sleep the last few days before release again. I want to be able to help with modding from Day 1, anyway.

Still surprises me how 2K13 is Minecraft money. Wouldn't mind paying some more if that meant being an equal citizen, but I hope the mods this year make up for any shortcomings or bugs, just like this year.

He probably meant cheap.

Yeah I know it is pretty crazy how much cheaper it is. SInce I play with a 360 controller the difference is almost non existent for me.

There is a pretty significant difference if you play on the PC with a 360 controller (like me), man. The game's better on a PC :D

Low price for the PC version worrying (30$ vs. 60$ for consoles vers.). It probably means there will be again (the third consecutive year) deprived of graphics (such as self shadowing, lighting) vs. XBOX360/PS3 versions :(
Again PC version is not a complete product (i still hope not)...

P.S. Wii version have same price as PC ver. at Amazon - 30$ :shock:

The Wii version is an updated port of the last PS2 version with shoddy motion controls. It's been that price for the last few years.

What I meant was that Minecraft and NBA 2K13 have the same $26.95 price. If you ask me the first one's too expensive, second one's too cheap.

PC Download is only for USA. I guess I'm going to wait for the Steam version.

On consoles, the bonus is the all star weekend stuff. Accurate uniforms, court, arena, dunk contest, 3pt contest, etc. PC isn't supposed to get any of it, at all,

We'll see about that. ;)

Too bad the pre-order isn't available in Greece. You're not getting my monies then, Amazon.

Oh sod-off. It's all through Paypal, Visa or Mastercard for them.

I can buy whatever I want through Amazon, either .com or .co.uk, or even .de. It's just "PC Downloads" that are just for US customers.

If that makes sense to you, whatever.

How about all the Bankrupt U.S. states and cities? I mean I did chuckle...but Chicago is bankrupt too. But I'm sure Amazon will be more than willing to take my monies, which they will when I get 2k13 for xbox couple weeks after release when it's around $40 :cheeky:

In this instance, a discount. In general, nothing; there are no pre-order bonuses for the PC version.
