    <p>I plan on buying it outright, but I wonder: does All Access require any pre-payment on the 22nd? I recall the short stint they did for the Xbox One but I don't recall that being a pre-order scenario.</p><p><br></p><p>Edit: no up-front costs for All Access per the link.</p>

    <p>Pre-ordered in the UK – using Xbox all access. Now just need to see how reliable the order/fulfilment process is.</p>
