I've pre-ordered L4D2, Rage, Amnesia, Portal 2, Age of Empires 2 HD, Duke Nukem, Deus Ex : Human Revolution, Minecraft and some other games I cannot remember. I've mostly made second thoughts ever since the disaster of Rage and Duke Nukem.
I used to pre-order, but after a few great disasters of gaming history I do not now.
What I can think of right now is Portal 2, Age of Empire 2 HD Edition, Sniper Elite 2 and Just Cause 2.
Oh, I have also pre-ordered Gta V for pc but let's see how that works.
Guild Wars 2, Portal 2, Left 4 Dead 2, Bioshock Infinite, CS:GO, Borderlands 2 eg..
I'm always hyped for a lot of titles, so I pre order almost everything; especially if I have been following the development of a game and played the beta/alpha of it. I've never been disappointed after pre-ordering before.
Arma 3, Red Orchestra 2 and Star Citizen (if that counts as pre order)
Cant remember anything else
FarCry 3 is probably the only triple A I've pre-ordered.
Yeah quite a handful of games, not so much now since I don't have any money but I think my best pre-order was Duke Nukem Forever Balls of Steel edition. I wanted to put down the full $100 dollars for it but for some reason the guy only charged me like $50 dollars for it and they never noticed it
ArmA 2: Operation Arrowhead and Red Orchestra 2, was not disappointed with either.

Oh wait, I also have ArmA 3 pre-ordered.
I pre-order games from time to time.
My recent was Poker Night 2
Why not? it's the same price and normally comes a day before the release date too. I pre-ordered New Vegas on Xbox and Amazon sent me the PS3 version instead, so they swapped it and gave me a £50 voucher as they missed the pre-ordered guarantee
Orcs Must Die 2
I was so pumped to play it with my mate! Turns out its not much more than an expansion pack, with terrible level design and overall relatively short campaign.
Still had some fun, but I regret pre-ordering it because it costed a good £10, I would have bought it half price at most.
Very few times will I pre-order a game, only things I get really hyped up for do I bother pre-ordering.
List:
Half-Life 2
Bioshock
Grand Theft Auto IV
Halo 3
Halo Reach
Twisted Metal (2012)
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker
I preorded Battlefield 3.
I regret it...
[QUOTE=Samiam22;40398599]I preordered Duke Nukem Forever.
Hnnnnnnnnnnng[/QUOTE]
I feel the same pain, the little bust of Nukem himself was plastic, and for $100 i expected plaster at least.
I pre-ordered:
L4D2
DE:HR
Dishonored
CS:GO
DS3
I very rarely pre-order and nowadays I think I can guess which game will be on sale sooner.
EDIT:
Right now I'm considering pre-ordering Witcher 3 but I'm waiting for more info.
[QUOTE=GhostOfSide3;40399486]I've pre-ordered games for a long time.
I've never been disappointed with a game I pre-ordered because I know what I want.[/QUOTE]
This, Even DNF, I liked it just cause Duke Nukem, Although I did sell it on quite quick when I completed it cause the online was shit, I only lost out on £5, I will more then likely pick it up when its on the cheap again for PC just to add to my collection and probably replay.
I pre-order all Zelda games.
arma 3
I only preorder when I'm almost certain it will be good.
I've only preordered a couple times, as I usually wait for a price drop.
Recently, I've preordered Poker Night 2, but previously I preordered Portal 2 (ps3 which came with a pc copy), Batman Arkham City (not technically a preorder I guess, but it was an Nvidia voucher, and I redeemed it before Batman AC was released, so I guess that counts), and Natural Selection 2 (which I traded a copy of Cortex Command for and got a preorder of it)

What?
I once preordered Portal 2 through amazon.de and it came a few days later than expected because valve kinda fucked up with the DVD cases and they gave me a 5€ code for PC games only
Welp still better than nothing
On multiple occasions, for mainly game series that i know i'd love.
ex: dishonored
metro last light
orange box
bioshock: inf
i don't pre-order for games i'm unsure about unless if its suuuuper cheap.
Mass Effect 3.
Never again.
a few times, I slowly lost faith in it, now I only preorder if, 1. I know it's going to be good, or 2. I get something out of it. IE poker night 2
The only games I've preordered have been online. So they get sent to me the minute they're released.
I don't see much point in preordering in store.
I pre-ordered Pokemon White expecting to get one of those fucking nifty styluses.
I didn't get it.
I still paid the same amount because I was gonna get it on release anyway.
No loss.
Preordered Halo: ODST, was mostly worth it. All the H3 multiplayer maps were nice since I didn't have them at that point.
I preordered Payday, but that's it
worms revolution, regretted it, and recently PN2.
