This one's for the American readers.

GameStop, one of the world’s largest video game retailers (possibly the largest - we haven’t counted) is offering an exclusive reward for customers who pre-order Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars (before its March 17th release) for the DS with guns and money.

By pre-ordering you’ll start your game with $10,000 worth of Liberty City cash in your pocket and access to the game’s entire arsenal of weaponry.

There might be some half-interested gamers out there who, like us, wonder quite what the appeal is. While the game would undoubtedly start off with a bit more action, surely it’d ruin the experience of actually earning this stuff for yourself and damage the longevity of the game, wouldn’t it?

It’s not been revealed quite how this virtual freebie will work (a simple code wouldn’t remain secret for very long, obviously) but keep checking back and we’ll let you know any further info as it comes in.
