I was just wondering what places were offering what incentives for what editions. I've already ore-ordered at GameStop but if someone has better rewards I may switch. so if we could just make a list, it'd be much appreciated. I'll update this post as people post.

Well, my preorder is with UbiShop (http://shop.ubi.com/store/ubiemea/en_GB/pd/ThemeID.8605700/productID.246429800/Tom-Clancys-Ghost-Recon-Future-Soldier-Signature-Edition.html); and I get Signature Edition with has MK14 and AK47, 48 headgears, and bonus COOP map AND for preordering with them, I get both Ghost (M40A5 Sniper and 1 gear unlock) and Bodark (MN91/30 and 1 gear unlock) Preorder Packs for £49.99.

This is the same price my local GAME is doing WITHOUT the preorder packs... So, for it to be sent by Mail, you get the Packs with add more weapons to play with.

So you ordered it for the PC?

I don't see such an offer on the US site for the PS3. :-|

I have to re-ask Heats' question; is Duane talking about the PC version? That is the only edition that is 49.99 and is the only one listed with all the stuff his/her post talks about; there is nothing about getting the signature edition from ubisoft store for either xbox or 360.

Maybe it was a special they ran at one time

What Duane has detailed is for the PC DELUXE (not Signature) edition only.

Gamestop offers an upgrade to the Signature edition for pre-orders.

According to the Best Buy site (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?CJPID=4166869&iht=y&sc=Global&qp=&_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&type=page&ref=39&nrp=15&URL=http://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&_dynSessConf=-721821245070553160&id=pcat17071&type=page&st=ghost+recon+future+soldier&sc=Global&cp=1&nrp=15&sp=&qp=&list=n&iht=y&usc=All+Categories&ks=960&ci_src=11138&SID=1u6ravujjyj0k&cp=1&ci_src=11138&AID=10474050&loc=01"&id=pcat17071&PID=4166869&st=ghost recon future soldier&_dynSessConf=-721821245070553160&sp=&usc=All Categories&list=n&ks=960) offers 15% off the game guide.

Amazon has this offer (http://www.amazon.com/Tom-Clancys-Ghost-Recon-Xbox-360/dp/B0037LTTRO/ref=sr_1_1_det?ie=UTF8&qid=1335825776&sr=8-1#productPromotions).

And here's Walmart's (http://www.walmart.com/ip/14290976) offering.

Thanks for clearing that up. I am suprised that Ubisoft does not sell the signature edition itself,
Is there any official word on when or if the bonus weapons from the signature edition will be offered at a later date?

nrm21122 if you're in Canada get it from eBay! There is also another shop up there offering a steel book?

Man I wish we had that offer in the states.....I'd be all over that edition with the rocket launcher (i know, cheesy).

Guess Canada got us this time... *sighs*

you are forgetting to mention that only gamestop US is offering the free upgrade to signature edition. the UK or any European gamestop website is offering nothing as a purchase incentive

I apologize. All my friends in the UK tell me Gamestop isn't over there, so I assumed to mention "US only" would be redundant. Apparently Gamestop is in the UK, so yes -- the offer is only in the US.

If you're talking about the blue box that has the "pre-order offer" then it's for the DELUXE edition. When you click on that box, it leads you to the PC Download version of the Deluxe Edition to pre-order. The Deluxe Edition is available only for the PC, it's the digital download.

I was wondering why countries other than the U.S. got much better "extras" some even got action figures for pre-ordering.

Is there or will there be, a preview for the artic boat map(offered by amazon) and the moscow map(offered from other outlets)?

I feel that a map is a pretty big determination on where I would want to preorder. So having a preview of two said maps would be nice.

**** Ubi. I wouldn't trust a thing they say. For example, With Splinter Cell they offer 3 beta keys for GRFS beta. I never got these. I emailed Support creating an online ticket. I called Support as well following up. Bottomline UBI essentially says sorry some people got them others didn't. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if this situation happens with orders from them regarding bonus items. They'll point to some bull**** disclaimer while supplies last or something. Regarding ordering from them, I wouldn't do that if it was a last resort. Wish Red Storm could leave Ubi and do what they used to\love to do which is make killer games in their vision with our corporate pressure. This behavior is killing great studio's culture.
