If only I liked Bakugan....

Free T-shirts are alright; free hats are pretty cool; but free pillowcases are awesome! That's right - pre-order Bakugan Battle Brawlers from Game Crazy and you'll be the proud recipient of this fantastic piece of bedroom-bling. One side features lead character Dan, and the other sports a nice picture of Dan's guardian Bakugan Dragonoid. Well, I think that's who they are anyway; I actually know nothing about the game, or the show it was based on.

What I do know is that I want other companies to follow suit and give us pillowcases of their own. I mean, who wouldn't want to rest their head on the inviting lap of Master Chief, or take a trip to dreamland in the arms of a Big Daddy? And the great thing about pillowcases, unlike t-shirts, is that they're one-size-fits-all, so even the small among us won't have to miss out. Yes, I really think that Activision may have discovered the ultimate pre-order bonus, and I hope it's not the only one we see.

In fact, why stop at pillowcases? Since there are some pretty expensive games coming out this holiday season, why not offer sheets or duvet-covers to those who plop down their money early? It would certainly encourage more people to pre-order, and would lead to some pretty snazzy bedrooms in the future. So come on game publishers - make this dream a reality!
