It's always nice to be given the ability to choose between three solid pre-order bonuses depending on who you give your money to. Amazon.com is offering up Home costumes for Killzone 2 pre-orders while Best Buy is throwing PS3 Themes to its consumers. However, we feel that perhaps GameStop may have the most to offer when it comes to Killzone 2 fanatics.

According to the official GameStop website, shoppers who decide to pre-order through their website or within their stores will receive access to the Killzone 2 demo coming some time in February. We've included the information from the website below.

Bonus Details Reserve Killzone 2 and receive exclusive access to the Killzone 2 Demo. You must have access to Playstation Network in order to redeem promotion code. Available for online and in-store customers, while supplies last.

Online Customers: Codes granting access to the Killzone 2 Demo will be sent via email starting on February 3rd.

In-Store Pickup / Store Customers: A rave card granting access to the Killzone 2 Demo will be available at time of game reservation.

So, now you have three options to choose from. Which sounds the most enticing to you?

    Not worth it to get a demo cuz the game comes out in less than 30 days. i got my preordered at BestBuy got the theme code and it will last forever. imo

    I don't like the idea of getting downloadable content with a pre-order. It seems cheap.

     not worth it, stick with the beta and wait for the game. Not even 2months away.

    my gamestop will have a midnight launch, they did for MGS4, they had about 30 people waiting in line, i was 2nd in line beside a guy who was gettingthe MGS4 bundle and i got the limited edition bundle. so, there could be a good turn out for this game.  i like going to midnight launches,  it's alot of fun when you got the right gamers in line with you.       but, the demo would be stupid to do that.  i'll pre-order it on my next check.

    Oh yea! This is the game that should of been released in November to compete with Gears of War 2. I'm buying this at EB Games at midnight. I really hope it doesn't get delayed.

    Uh yes! I am so going to do this. Mostly because, I preordered at amazon already and I'll just pre-order at Gamestop, get my voucher code then take my pre-order away ^_^

    @12...

     

    Can you really do that?!?!?!?!?!!??!?!!?

    I'm still holding out for some better preorder bonuses. So far these are really lame. I don't want a new Home outfit, this demo is only a few weeks ahead of the full game and probably available to Qore users anyway, and the Best Buy theme is cool but still... it's just a theme.

    Where's somebody to step in and offer a Helghast figure or helmet or keychain or helmet keychain or something cool?

    @13 yea you can but usually they like you to put the 5 bucks down on something else. They have been cool with me so far about it, but I dont do it all the time either.

    Im half way tempted to order off Amazon for the Home costume. Does anyone know how soon they can have it to you though? Will it be at my door the same day as launch day or will it ship to me when its realesed?

    @11 and why exactly does KZ2 need to compete against Gears?Shouldn't the important thing be the quality of the game? Further more,how can games on opposite platforms compete against eachother?

    Downloadable content is not good however a playable demo on Blu-Ray would be collectible

    Demo kinda pointless in February if your pre ordering Killzone 2. Demo should be  for people not sure if they are going to buy it. I'll probably pre order from best buy.

    • 3:32am GMT - December 30th, 2008

    Why you all wanna pre order?

    Wait for a collectors edition!

  22. svtschmidt

    • 6:52am GMT - December 30th, 2008

    all three of these bonuses are weak.  I'm hoping they annouce a limited edition version soon.

  23. A-eQuitas

    • 7:20am GMT - December 30th, 2008

    thats what i mean.

    i was playing the beta...why a demo when this game comes out 3 weeks later?

    i just wanna have a collectors edition

    Can u please find out about pre order deals in Europe after all it was developed there & i would like 2 play the demo b4 it comes out c'in as i missed out on the beta :-(

  25. a_stray_bullet10

    • 9:09am GMT - December 30th, 2008

    what? a demo 'code'...so we cant download this demo for free just like all the other demos? LAME

    I'm holding out for a better preorder bonus because I think those items should be tangible. Not to mention a Limited/Collectors Edition should be revealed shortly.

    I mean, after all this time, countless claims, astronomical production costs, and pure hype, it deserves nothing less than a solid collectors/limited edition. Agree?

    the worst for me i think played some betas ruined some games to me, so i'm going under a rock until k2 is out

    I've been waiting for almoust 4 years and i should wait a bit more till they actually announce a KillZone 2 Collectors/Limited edition.

    killzone 2 deserves better.

    WTF!? Maybe if the demo was available immediately..but if they really are waiting til February then they should be letting everyone download the demo !!

  30. Soraz | Sodraz

    • 2:16pm GMT - December 30th, 2008

    ehh.. maybe i'm wrong but i've always ment that the purpose of a Demo is to see if you actually want the game or not.. so in order to get the Demo of the game..you have to preorder the game first.. I think it's the idea of a moron tbh.
