As we are now getting used to different pre-order bonuses for different stores, some good some not so good. I was just going to throw it out there what is your pre-order bonus? (state store and country as well)

Wish I pre-ordered.
 
Anyone know of any bonuses in Australia?

The only one I know of is a free "Ken Block and Dirt 3: Gymkhana Unleashed" DVD at GAME. EB Games did have a deal where you would get a free copy of GRID Reloaded, but that deal seems to have ended.

You can. I pre-ordered L.A. Noire literally 10 minutes before the store closed the day before it came out, and got the pre-order bonuses when I picked the game up.

I just checked at jb, there's 'instant access' to some events and cars. Plus it's only 89 at jb, whereas probably 110 at eb
 
I bought mine from Steam (PC version obviously) and got a free copy of Dirt 2 (bit annoying that I already own it :P)

Find someone who doesn't have it, you can gift it to them. I got an extra copy too, but I'm using it as a prize for a contest on another forum I visit.

Yeah, the version of Dirt 2 I have wasn't bought from Steam, so I can't do that unfortunately :(

Guess i could send them the CD Key though...?!
 
It's $78 at EB Games. Or at least, it's $78 at my EB Games. No pre-order bonuses that I know of.

Save yourself about 20 bucks and get it from Amazon.com (no tax and free delivery and Team Yokohama code)

Edit: scratch the tax part since you live in New York, but still you should save good money
 
At 1st I debated on getting the PC version or PS3. But once I saw I could get the Monster SX4 Hill Climb if I preorder from gamestop, it was an easy choice. Although I do think Steam has a nice preorder bonus (Dirt 2), I would rather have additional cars. Plus not to mention you have to do a little hackery to get my wheel, t500rs, to work with Dirt 2.

Personally I wish they would still offer this Superteam DLC as an additional $15 purchase so everyone, no matter what store, has access. Anyone know if that's the case?

Preorder list (from dirt 3 OT at gaf)

The game will require an online pass, that is included in all new copies, for online functionality- including its' YouTube feature. As well as access to items.

Rich, I believe you will eventually get all of those cars, but you won't get the specific liveries offered up in the pre-order bonuses.
 
Unless all that stuff comes with my pre-order ill be in the same boat, and even worse i'll be getting it on the 26th rather than today (24th) seems us down under just keep getting stiffed on things like this
 
The liveries are probably **** anyway...I just want to make sure I have a fair shot of using all the cars, especially cars like the RS2000.
