I've never preordered a game online before, do they send the code in an email or in the game box itself?

Are these multi-player only characters?

When ever you pre-order a game online and it comes with a pre-order bonus code they will either email it to you or it will come on a card inside of the game itself. More often than not it will be on a card. If you were to pre-order it then pick it up in person they would hand you the card when you check out..

They can be used in MP as well as the single player..

Now it doesn't matter if you get the code or not, it only matters if you have your system hooked up to whatever network it has so it's online, right?

I bought Batman Arkham Asylum from walmart becauxe of the Special Joker character and it told me the only way to get it was to download it with the code. It's the same with these guys right?

Best Buy and Gamestop's websites both say the preorder characters can only be used in Escalation mode in the multi player.

The way most of these pre-order codes work is they are basically gifts( so to speak) for pre-ordering the game .. Most of the time bonus DLC is available later on but for a fee..Without the code , who's to say that a few weeks later they won't be up on the PSN/XBL for .99 or something...

So since I don't have my PS3 hooked up to anything or have the internet in the house a all, it's worthless to me. Oh well. I just hope the game turns out to be good. Thanks.

www.play.com are doing a Demolisher preorder

It'd be nice if they would have these characters be active in campaign mode. I understand you're essentially getting them for free, but for those of us who don't play much or at all online then it kind of sucks.
