Think of it this way: I didn't pre-order Titanfall. I bought it the day it came out... online, in digital download format, which is something I
couldn't do the day before it came out. Why would I wait for a disc to show up at my house, or have to go out and pick it up when I can just buy the game while sitting at work, get home, and play it immediately, since the game will download while the console is off? (Go standby!) It makes no sense to pre-order discs if quantities of online purchases are unlimited and delivery is done behind the scenes.
In this generation, the 'pre-order' statistic is virtually worthless until we start getting pre-orders for digital versions.
