great

my Xbox360 N7 Edition

amazon.com = 79,99 USD
game.co.uk = 69,99 GBP = 114,63 USD
amazon.de = 89,99 EUR = 131,27 USD

:( :( :(


Agreed, this is a dirty move by EA.

Being the ME fanboy and completist I am, I'll definitely pick this up.  I tracked down all the promo stuff for ME 2 and DAO and DA2, so I'll be doing the same here. 

I wonder if the Dark Horse comic will be a single issue of Evolution or Redemption, a TPB (trade paperback collection) of either Redemption or Evolution, or an entirely new story which ties into ME3.

Well I'm definitely getting it. Just wondering if I should order now or wait till I find out what sort of pre-order incentives the various retailers are offering.

PS: On a side note I really dislike retailer exclusive DLC and I'd be pleased if Mass Effect 3 didn't continue this unfortunate trend in gaming.

How is it "the same hit" when it's almost double the American price? Image IPB


So ME3 CE should be roughly $64 in the US if it is 7,999 yen in Japan? And subsequently the UK price should be 43€? But there are more currencies out there. Where do we start? Whose currency is the starting point? 


Since EA is an American company, obviously you start with USD. Now, let's face it, the USD has seen better times. So have other currencies, but € doesn't suck as much as $. Therefore, EA earns a ****load of money by selling it for 75+€ in Europe.


Yes, they do earn more money per sale and they also have to spend more money getting it to you and paying UK employees' paychecks in euros. We don't get Final Fantasy and other Japanese games over here for 20% off and wouldn't expect to.

In the UK 79€ will go as far as $79 will in the US.  It's priced relative to your local economy. At least your not like Australia who actually get penalized by the exchange rate.

Hmm, 1 hr ME3 coverage starting.. on time? Surprising http://live-event.ea...hat/mass-effect

...except most games here in the UK are at a similar price to the US versions. The regular Mass Effect 3 UK price is reasonable, but the Collector's edition is horrifically and disproportionately overpriced in the UK and even more so on mainland Europe.

Oh and thanks for the link.

Couldn't resist and reserved my copy of the Collectors Edition for the PC and after Dungeon Siege 3 comes out, I intend to play pig and reserve a copy of the Collectors Edition ME 3 for the XBOX 360.

Question, is there any specific time-frame to redeem DLC included in Collector's Editions? I was thinking about grabbing an extra CE or two and hocking them for $150 like, eight months or so later.

I can't wait for this, the tin with male and female Shepard sounds awesome. The cover of the art book looks stunning too. Wake me up in March. Oh yeah...strange there isn't an N7 assualt rifle there.

Gamestop's in Canada finally have it on their website but they said it's still not in their system to pre-order in store. Let's go already! Guarantee it will be in their systems tomorrow...when I work all day.

I upgraded my pre-order to the CE today. 80 bucks? I'd stab an orphan for this game.

I was hoping for a bit more of a bang to end the trilogy on, perhaps a statue akin to the Halo Reach, Crysis 2, GOW 3 etc mega-editions. Oh well, I'll settle for what's on the cards happily enough. :)

If I don't buy this, can I still buy the extra in-game stuff later?

Can Pre-Ordering hurt?

In Dragon Age II, there were a set of pre-order bonuses. Then later, they would release more, but the people who had already pre-ordered got that new content as well.

Is it the same story for Mass Effect 3?

So I am hearing that the N7 hoody for Shepard in game has been cut from the CE? Can anyone else confirm that? It's a minor thing but one that added a lot of charm to the CE I felt and if it has been removed it would only diminish the CE further sadly.

I am incredibly impressed at how much of a mess this has all become already. I can only imagine the sort of headaches pre-order incentives could add down the line.

The sheer inevitability of that is already making me cringe.
