Amazon's Dead Rising 2 Pre-Order Codes DOA
Getting goodies for pre-ordering games has become a normal habit for consumers, retailers, and publishers, but Amazon and Capcom's Dead Rising 2 pre-order campaign has hit a bump in the road. Gamers who pre-ordered the game from the online retailer are being told that the avatar outfit they were promised is delayed indefinitely.
Evil Avatar reports that customers were initially offered a $10 Amazon game credit for Dead Rising 2's pre-order DLC back in Oct., and now they're getting 50% off Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of two worlds for their trouble.
It is unknown at this time the exact reasons for the continuing trouble for this pre-order DLC.
