Even at game in the UK you get double reward points if you pre-order games, but I guess for most people a money discount is what makes them buy.About rubbish games being made, poeple will always buy rubbish games no matter what but one gamers crap is another gamers haven.
It reminds me of the british car industry in the 1970's and 1980's, were british people would buy british cars just because their were british made but in fact these cars were just pain rubbish and thats why they all went out of business.
Pre-ordering will happen regardless of incentive... it may get a few more bucks in their pocket if they offer up season passes and free games to do it, but why exactly is that a bad thing? Why is that making people angry? That people are spending their money the way they choose to, getting free ♥♥♥♥ for a game they intended to buy day one anyways? Even if this encourages more people to pre-order that normally wouldn't, unless you're "suckered" into doing it, why do you care? It's their money.
What will getting rid of pre-orders accomplish exactly? Do you think DLC will magically become free? This incentive program came LONG after the existance of paid DLC and expansion packs.
The video just reeks of bias against the series (based on "what he's heard"), Capcom and DLC. Literally nothing of value came out of what I just watched.

Wow Mr Angry. Well I'll answer your question. It would force publishers to release better games. Because they would not have their investment money all ready waiting for them on launch day. There is no incentive to make a good game when you know you can get your money back by just offering trivial pre order bonuses. Don't belive me? Go check the forums for all the people that pre-ordered Aliens or my god Duke Nuke'um forever right here on steam. There is no incentive to the consumer for pre-ordering or to the creative process. You might not remember the good ol' days when dinosaurs ruled the earth and publishers had to release a GOOD game for people to buy it. Now all it takes is an advert and the promise of a collectors edition aluminum dog tag to move the game.
A forum population is not an accurate representation of anything, there are thousands upon thousands upon thousands of people not on the forums doing things you can't possibly know. What we can logically assume, a game like Aliens being a bust, people will be tentative to pre-order anything from them again. Consumers can and will make these adjustments naturally. You don't need to tell them what to do with their money.
If Resident Evil Revelations does see a good pre-order turnout... maybe it just means Resident Evil 6 and it's DLC were not as bad/unreasonable as that biased, pointless video made it out to be. The reception of past Capcom titles (and specifically the RE series) will have a far greater impact on future game sales then any pre-order incentive.
I got a $30 credit fora future 2K game that I'll be using for God and Kings
I enjoyed every single second I was playing Bioshock Infinite
Like anything else pre-orders can be a good or a bad thing. You take a risk/reward when you do it. Don't want to risk, then taht's fine.
Since you ignored pretty much every point I made and seem to think I was saying something about marketing teams making up the tiers out of thin air... I'm not really sure the point in continuing to talk to you.
found this for you. but like you said I'm just one crazy dude. nobody thinks pre-orders hurt gaming., I guess you're right. sigh....
And considering that the brief period of preorder time, with all those pre-sales, has any meaningful impact on de development process of a game is just wishful thinking from someone who has never developed anything.
The writer shoots left and right, pulling all the strings in order to hit something.
Bad game content, DLC splitting, lack of demos, retail offer diferentiation... all of that happens because of preorders. Yeah sure.
He forgets why publishers can push a load of crap inside a game, it's just because of the name.
Activision could pretty much not allow preorders of the next CoD and still relase in the very same baked-again-content, full of little DLC map expansions cow-milking scheme... Would no preorders change anything?
NO. Because it's frigging CoD!!!!! Hordes of kiddos will throw their moneys at activision just to play the game, whatever it has inside. It's the franchise what lets publishers do what the article blames on preorders, not the preorders themselves.

That article doesn't come close to responding to any of my points, it regurgitates that tired opinion you copy and pasted from it pretty well though...
