Pre-order from EB = headset?

They claim in the store that if you pre-order the game there, you will get a headset included in the box.

Anyone doing this or have more information about it?

Thanks.

Well it is true. I personally did not do it that way, but I know some people who have just to get the back-up set of headphones.

Re: Pre-order from EB = headset?

I didn't pre-order from EB but I did from Best Buy and I got a Logitech headset, if memory serves me correctly, included in my pre-order box. They aren't really headsets per se. They are the kind that have the little plastic piece that fits behind your ear and the pads are over your ears and not in them.

Yes, I just picked it up. Crappy ol' peice of plastic if you ask me, but a nice gesture nonetheless.
