Oh and DsH, do you have any 'proof' that TWW is selling like it is only because of the bonus disk? From what I remember, you preordered Zelda because of TWW correct? You never really saw the big deal with it did you? And anyway, that argument doesn't stand up anyway, because most places ask you to put down $15 for the preorder, and they give you a bonus disk. Now if anyone wanted to return TWW, sure they could keep the onus disk, but they would have still spent $15. Now why would they do that for an old game? Then there is the 250,000 or so preorders that were placed before people knew about the bonus disk/the official campaign. Sure the bonus disk did help raise those figures somewhat, but there's no denying that many preordered the game for TWW itself.
I never said it was selling this good ONLY because of the bonus disc (at least I don't think I did), I meant that it's probably playing a big factor... As for the whole pre-order, return WW and keep bonus disc... You can't return the game without returning the bonus disc... At least that's how it is on ebgames.com... And if you returned the game, you would have got your 15 dollars back anyways...

But yeah I pre-ordered WW way back when EBgames started taking pre-orders... long before they announced the bonus disc dealy...
