'Destiny' Has an Exclusive Pre-Oder Bonus Available From GameStop

If You're Still Wondering Where To Pre-Order Destiny, GameStop Has an Exclusive Bonus

Amid the new Destiny gameplay footage today was another news item: GameStop has secured a PowerUp Rewards exclusive pre-order bonus for the new game, an exclusive upgraded Sparrow vehicle.

"Additionally, new details for pre-order incentives have been announced," Activision and Bungie said in a press release. "GameStop PowerUp Rewards members who pre-order Destiny at retail stores nation-wide will receive the GameStop Exclusive Upgraded Sparrow. This in-game, customized, red-colored personal-transport features an upgraded boost, faster speed, and higher durability than the standard Sparrow. The Exclusive Upgraded Sparrow will put GameStop's PowerUp Rewards members ahead of the game when Destiny launches on September 9."

So, that certainly sounds useful, and it looks cool to boot. It certainly sounds like Bungie has chosen their retail partner of choice as well, unless there's going to be other vehicles coming to other retailers as pre-order bonuses. It also seems you have to be a PowerUp member to secure a code, but luckily that's free to join.

The upgraded Sparrow is the only announced in-game pre-order bonus thus far, as no other retailers are listing anything other than beta access for pre-order customers. GameStop isn't listing it on its site yet, but it will most likely be up shortly.

Will this be enough to sway you to pre-order at GameStop, or is this bonus just too "meh" for your tastes? Let us know in the comments.
