Out of curiosity, I checked to see if the 'pre-order ME3' link on the masseffect.com site worked - it still doesn't. Is this deliberate or is there some sort of technical error?
I'm in Australia if that helps.
ME3 still not available for pre-order

You can currently pre-order from amazon.com, no idea if it's available to australian customers though.

EB Games has it for pre-order. I haven't yet because I have no real idea what the game will be like, and I'll likely wait for a special edition to be announced, but the standard one can be pre-ordered. It's been in our system since around January.

We won't have any "real" pre-order things going on until BioWare starts to really talk up the game. Places like Amazon and EB Games only have pre-orders available on the grounds of "We know Mass Effect 3 is coming out, but that's about it."

Well Amazon doesn't sell games ot Australia unfortunately. I do notice though, and thanks Terror, that EB has it. $98 isn't bad, thought there isn't a chance in hell I'm paying that much.
Interestingly they also have ME2 on PC for $48 which includes a $20 EB gift card too. Not too shabby, and gives me even more reason to wait.

I have my copy pre-ordered at Gamestop. Needless to say, once the CE is announced, it will be switched to that.
But I'm in the United States, so I really don't know how to help you with your pre-order problem.

I'd recommend waiting for any announcements of pre-order bonuses before pre-ordering.

The best place for any Aussie gamer to buy games is OzGameshop, free shipping and the prices are reasonable. I'm sure you can pre-order directly from the official website when there is an official release date announced (they'll probably link to other retailers based on region as they did for DA2).

I am just curious here, why do people want to pre-order the game so early ? The release of Mass Effect 3 is at least 7 - 8 months away yet. hell it might not see a release till January 2012 for all we know. There is no information on anything ME 3 related such as pre-order bonuses (of which there will probably be about several hundred if I know EA). Any pre-order you make now is pretty pointless since it is highly likely you will end up changing the pre-order to get a specific bonus you want from another retailer.

I want to know what types of promotional item each vendor is offering before I place an order, but definitely collector/signature edition. I do hope however that we get to carry over our promotional items from ME2 to ME3.

I'm waiting for some more info to find out how the game is shaping up. And if I decide to buy it, I won't settle for anything less than a Collector's Edition.

For my part, paying off a game well ahead of time is my way of making sure I don't have to worry about accidentally being short of money on launch day, as I'm terrible at holding onto my money. (If I ever get married, I'm abdicating all financial responsibility to my wife, and she will thank me for being responsible enough to do so.)
