It's not old and he explained why. I wonder why this happened..?

A store here in Finland started taking preorders for what they call Gran Turismo 5 Limited Edition earlier this week. Maybe Amazon is going to do the same? 💡

I'm only going to pre-order a week before release, that guarantees against cancellation for the most part.

I wont pre-order without knowing the official release date, if Europe has to wait a couple more months than Japan I will import a copy.

I'm not pre-ordering until I know what versions there are - no point pre-ordering the "standard" version if there is to be, as the winds say, a greater version with a higher sacrifice. I intend to get all that DLC free!

ll, you can always cancel your pre-order for a standard version? 👍

I'll just do the same thing I did with Prologue........ Walk into a shop on release day, pick a copy up, take it to the counter and buy it. I really have no idea why people pre-order games.

Because, we're lazy, and it might sell out fast...

Sometimes there are pre-order specials for those who do pre-order.

Possibly a case of Sony telling retailers that they are handling the release differently, (maybe that two box options that was rumoured) so amazon have pulled it pending the release of further information.
Or more likley it is going to cost more than they priced it at, and they are cancelling the preorders rather than taking a hefty loss.
Depends on luck, sometimes it arrives on release day, others the day afterwards. (thats with prime and paying the extra for next day delivery)
Have you ever considered the fact that, for one reason or another, some people may not be able to easily get to a store? How about the fact that some people like to save a few quid by ordering online? Some people even like to chance getting it early by ordering online in advance.I'll just do the same thing I did with Prologue........

Contrary to what you think, people are not pre-ordering just to ensure they get a copy in case of shortages, because everybody knows that marketing trick doesn't work anymore. However, that doesn't stop people pre-ordering for obvious reasons I stated above.
Oh, and if you want to get clever and quote things from ads, I think you'll find that it is "simplez"

Not to mention that if you pre-order it at a store all you have to do on release day is walk in, get the game and leave(assuming you paid it 100% before hand). This means you will be playing faster.Have you ever considered the fact that, for one reason or another, some people may not be able to easily get to a store?
