Watch Dogs is pretty much a perfect game through my eyes and I'm HIGHY awaiting it. BIG fan. There are two (at least two) different preorders. Amazon and Game Stop/ EB Games. I'm sort of thinking about getting one of the really cool special editions but I want input on this first.
Both come with there own special pulses. Some may be purchasable as a DLC, and some not. You will have to search it up your self though, you can thank my Ipod and my crappy Internet connection. :3

I see it is not published by EA so no extreme measures are required, but if the DLC brings more content to the game and not just a costume I would go for that.

Yeah.. if it were EA you'd have to buy hair, clothes, and even the game exe as DLC for half the price of the game. :P hehe. It's a good game. I got a sneak peak from the dev when he came to my country last month. He showed extra stuff not shown in any YT vids. I'm going all out and getting the edition with everything. I don't mind paying the extra coin for a good game.

Special editions are cool if you're into getting physical swag. For example, the Limited Edition of the game comes with a nine inch figurine of the main character, his mask, the official soundtrack (on CD! ask your parents if you don't know what a CD is, kids), steelbook case, collector's box, and artbook along with the game itself. Be aware, though, that this will run you down $130 plus tax.

The Gamestop pre-order bonus (just on the regular edition of the game) comes with a new Single Player mission plus some rewards (ATM Hack Boost so you can get more cash and an Investigation Bonus).

It doesn't appear to me that Amazon has any pre-order bonuses of any type.

Also, be aware, if you place a pre-order for the Playstation 3 edition of Watch Dogs, you'll get an hour of exclusive content that will only be available for that platform. So that's also something to consider if you have that particular platform.

I see it is not published by EA so no extreme measures are required, but if the DLC brings more content to the game and not just a costume I would go for that.

>not published by EA
>that must mean its ok

It's being published by Ubisoft. That's part of the reason why I'm buying it on consoles and not PC because of restrictive DRM.
