I am literally swimming in GS gift cards... So I went and preordered D3 from them and wow... They have no clue what is going on. Apparently I have to wait for them to call me, to tell me that I can pre-load. Then I have to wait for an email with a "CD key" to activate it, and the kicker is the email will come at exactly 12:01 on the 15th...
Has anyone heard anything regarding this, other than the "Blizzard and GS strike a deal," info on the net? Seems odd.

Meh, sounds like a dumb gamestop. Mine knows all the ins an outs for diablo 3 at least, They asked Physical copy or Digital, The digital they should just give you the code in which you add to your account. Then you have the pre-license like everyone else. (then again, this IS their fire blizzard didgital download game, so it is a new system for them)
If you have a gamestop you should go for the physical copy ( then again, if they dont have a midnight release or you live far away I can see that being an issue =( )

Was your code on a receipt somewhere?
oh no, I got the CE (physical) didnt go with digital, Just pointing out the had it. and knew about it There was an article about them doing this somewhere. I don't think it contained any solid info though on how they were handling it. If i find it ill post back.
I defiantly see why GS would want to try to break into the digital pre-download area, since I'm sure they just like many other video game outlet stores are worried about going under considering more and more people are just buying directly from the game developer with downloads.
Does seem strange though

But it just seems.. like an odd way to handle it.
