Pre-ordering baffles me.
Why not just walk into a Game Crazy, Game Stop, Target, Best Buy, etc. on release day, and buy the game?

Because I am lazy and dislike stores of any type. It's easier to just have it delivered to my front door.
I did not pre-order CivRev. I was going to but it came down to either CivRev or Metal Gear Solid 4. Seeing as how MGS4 was one of the big reasons I got a PS3 it won out. Though hopefully I'll have enough spare change to pick up CivRev soon after it comes out.

I go to the store only to buy groceries (to eat) and on occassion to peruse the fine females. Though when you pick up women at a grocery store they tend to have alot of baggage (like kids) so I go like once a month when absolutely necessary. I get my toothpaste, shampoo, soap, deaordorant and all other essential personal hygiene products when I go for food.
Far as clothes and everything else is concerned it's generally more economical (with gas prices as they are) and more convenient to buy online. Almost all the clothes I wear have to be bought from Big and Tall (I'm a freaking giant man) so I just do the majority of all other shopping online. It's just easier and I don't have to put up with screaming babies and snotty little kids.
On a side note you can buy groceries online now, but it is pretty expensive to do if you ask me.

I pre-ordered it from Amazon for this very reason. Anything I can have delivered to my door with ease, I prefer

No pre-order here. I fully expect being able to walk in and purchase a copy when I want. And, if I have to, I'll take out any 10 y/o in my way.

i reserved a DS copy at gamestop
Because no one goes to Target or Walmart to buy games if they can help it, Game Crazy and Game Stop sometimes either don't get copies of a game past the number of preorders(or pretend they didn't in order to get you to preorder it the next time), and because it a game is big enough, unless you preorder it you'll be hard-pressed to find a copy of it anywhere(Smash Brothers, Mario Kart, Halo, GTA4 are some recent examples)
I'm not preordering because I work at the store I'll be buying it at(although if we don't get it on time, as sometimes happens, I'll have to scout out my nearest Best Buy...)
I haven't pre-ordered, but ... remember, Dennis?

I'll go out and buy a DS copy as soon as I find out it's worthy of being purchased.
But I'm expecting a buggy game that you won't be able to patch.

I'm somewhat worried about this as well for the DS version. I know little about XB360s and PS3s, but I'd think Firaxis could patch them on the HD. ???

DS copy preordered. Since I work and have to make a major detour to visit a gamestore walking in on the day of release isn't an option for me, since they also often don't have the game on day of release or its sold out when I do manage to drop by. Got tired of that long ago and its generally cheaper to order it online and have it delivered on day of release or sometimes even a day earlier. So far only had two titles that were late. One two days and one a full week (that was painful )
Would also have gone for the Wii, but
Hopefully it sell well and they'll do a Wii version.
