Rock Band 3: Buy now and get free stuff!
​It used to be that pre-ordering a game would get you the same bonus no matter which retailer you ordered it from, but those days are long gone. Now every merchant is offering up their own pre-order incentives, and Harmonix's Rock Band 3 is no different. But in this case, there's a clear winner in the pre-order battle: GameStop.

The game retailer is offering up three free songs for download (good ones, too), while pre-ordering from Amazon gets you an in-game guitar. Pick the game up from Wal-Mart and you'll get a $10 gift card. Useful, but not exciting. 

But perhaps you'd rather have that than three additional tracks. We've got the complete details of all three offers below, so you can decide for yourself.

GameStop Pre-order* Opportunity:
GameStop shoppers who reserve Rock Band 3 for PlayStation 3 system or Xbox 360 in advance receive three downloadable Rock Band songs at launch:

- Burning Down the House by Talking Heads
- My Own Summer by Deftones
- Blue Monday by New Order

Amazon Pre-order* Opportunity:
Amazon shoppers who reserve Rock Band 3 for PlayStation 3 system, Xbox 360 and Wii in advance will receive access to an exclusive in-game guitar.  Additionally, for a limited time only, PlayStation 3 system and Xbox 360 owners who pre-order Rock Band 3 in advance on Amazon will receive $10 off a future videogame purchase.

Wal-Mart Pre-order* Opportunity:
Walmart.com shoppers who reserve Rock Band 3 for PlayStation 3 system, Xbox 360 and Wii in advance will receive a $10 eGift card for a limited time.
