Red Dead Redemption: pre-order bonuses


By Blackwalt - Posted on 03 May 2010

Which is the best on offer?

14 days from the release of Red Dead Redemption and I know all of you are looking around for the best pre-order deal. Looking around (quickly) I found three readily available deals: Amazon, Best Buy, and EBgames.

Please note that I may have already ordered my copy but I don't want to spoil the surprise.

Here is a listing of the three vendors and their pre-order offers to help you make your choice. Two of the vendors are available online and in brick and mortar form. One is online only. I'll let you work that out.

Amazondirect link.

    On offer:
  • Get a $10 Video Games Credit
  • Golden Gun access code

    Order Red Dead Redemption (at Amazon) and get $10 off a future video game purchase. Additionally you'll receive an in-game golden guns weapon pack, which let you gain fame faster (fame gains you access to in-game side missions). The promotional code will be placed directly into your Amazon.ca account within 2 business days after the product ships. Offer valid when shipped and sold by Amazon.ca. Golden Gun access code will be e-mailed within ten business days after the game releases. Promotion valid on all existing pre-orders. Limit one per household. Amazon reserves the right to change or terminate this promotion at any time.

    On offer:
  • Deadly Assassin Outfit

    The people have spoken - and the Deadly Assassin has won the Rockstar Games and Gamestop Red Dead Referendum by a landslide - beating out The Savvy Merchant and The Expert Hunter to be the top vote-getting outfit and officially making it the exclusive Gamestop pre-order bonus for Red Dead Redemption. 
    The Deadly Assassin Outfit causes your Dead Eye meter to regenerate at twice the speed. With more Dead Eye, you have more time to place each shot with total accuracy, making you the deadliest gunslinger in any fight. Watch the video below to see the Deadly Assassin in action.
    Also original soundtrack and unique packaging.
    Has to be unlocked in game.

    On offer:
  • Exclusive War Horse

    There are countless horses to be found in the massive world of Red Dead Redemption, but none is stronger, faster or tougher than the exclusive War Horse. Whether storming gang hideouts, exploring the wilderness for hidden treasure, or outrunning the law, the War Horse gives gunslingers an advantage in nearly every situation.

Anyone currently traveling in the States may want to pick this up on the road. Wal Mart is offering a bonus $20 gift card with purchase, effectively bringing the price down to $40 (US).

My Personal Bargain Hunter reports that Future Shop is giving away a copy of The Good the Bad and the Ugly movie on DVD or Blue-Ray with purchase.

Also, according to gamestop.ca website, the EBGames bonus is actually in the form of an upgrade to the Special Edition. This is why it includes the Assasin outfit, soundtrack and "exclusive challenges". Although personally I find it a challenge to understand why people spend an additional $10+ for a tin boxed version of a game.
