Where should I preorder?

I've never preordered a game before and I'm thinking starting to. Where do you guys go for preorders? I hear horror stories about both Gamestop and Amazon. BTW, the closest Gamestop is 35 minutes away. I have a nearby Wal-mart, but I have no idea if they would be any good (their employees always seem clueless.)

I don't walmart does prorders and just don't bother you don't need to just go to the walmart when the game comes out and you'll get it no problem I've done that hundreds of times

 I think Walmart only does Pre-orders for select games.

 If you live that close to a Walmart I wouldn't really worry about Pre-ordering, you are basically guaranteed to be able to find the game you are looking for when it is released.

Pre-ordering is pretty much worthless.  A game they make you pre order to get at gamestop, 99% of the time you can just walk into Best Buy or Target and just ask them for a copy.
That's why whenever I try to get a game from gamestop and the employees say, "you should have pre ordered," I just say, "no, I'll just go get it at Best Buy."

If you are going to pre-order a game, just walk into Gamestop and ask to reserve a copy. Done.

Don't start preordering, man. It will only leave you annoyed at all the Gamestop harassment.

Their's no need to ever pre-order. With exceptions of hardwatre & Special Editions, Gamestop &  Best Buy always have game's in stock ay one. The only time you should ever pre-order is if you get some special item for doing so.

There are some games that give out artbooks or soundtracks to people who preorder, and those are the best times to preorder."

If i dont order online, i usually pre-order using best buys "in store pickup"
