I stopped doing that back in 2016 at EB Games, here in North American (I know GAME is in the UK...).
Often times, their system would not have preorder options available, or the employees kept trying to upsell to me.
Doing it all online is way more confident, plus you can screenshot preorder bonuses, so they can’t jipp you!
