Unless Bioware has promised a full worldwide release like what was done with Gears 3, I can see why there would be a few days between the releases. I wouldnt worry for now about it.



Can some one explain to me why a game and/or a movie is released on different days around the world, I never understood that, whats the gain from it?

Maybe different countries have different "major release" days.

With movies I think a lot of it has to do with distribution costs as well as audience trends in different markets, among other factors.

With things like games?  Probably just one of those weird regional quirks.  But maybe there's an actual reason.

That said, I pre-ordered up my copy of the Collector's Edition not too long ago.  Which is pretty rare for me.  I almost never bother to pre-order games, let alone Collector's Editions.  But for Mass Effect, I am powerless.

Yeah, regional considerations and industry traditions.

Like in the US, new video game retail launches are on Tuesday, and the most important video game launch periods are right before spring break, summer vacation, and Thanksgiving. March 6th is the last Tuesday before the start of the spring break season, which makes it magical.

I was wondering if stores like GameStop and Amazon will have some sort of pre-order incentive for this game just like ME2?

The first two I've heard of are Best Buy and Game-Stop. Once again, pre-ordering the collectors edition doesn't guarantee you all the content, which really annoys me :devil:.
Heard it from the @ME3News twitter feed, a great source of info.

Gamestop doesn't find out what it is until about a month or two before hand usually. I was asking about it when I paid off my CE this past Wednesday.

You can try Game.co.uk or Gamestation.co.uk, both are same company and even tho prices on them atm are different ive been told they will be the same on release date tho they didnt say what the actual price will be (ordered it from gamestation as their policy is if u preordered it and the price goes up they have to charge you the lowest price when u ordered it so technically its their loss)

Ouch, £69.99 without shipping costs. What a rip off if you ask me. I could get it for 69,99 € with free delivery.

I've pretty much decided to get the digital deluxe version. I'm not pre-ordering just yet. Like I've said, I'll keep my fingers crossed hoping that they would release it on Steam. I do know that I basically loose by doing that since physical version costs the same but I don't need those trinkets. My desk is already a big ugly mess and I don't really have room for anything useless.

So far, as True Heresy said, these are the two bonuses that have been advertised:
1) N7 Valkaryie Rifle and Defender Armor at GameStop: http://www.gamestop....n/mass-effect-3
2) Argus Rifle at Best Buy: http://www.bestbuy.c...=category&h=387

And no, I didn't misspell "Valkaryie," that's how it's spelled in the advertisement.

shipping costs? both sites are free delivery (bear in mind they are the only 2 companies (same company rly tbh) that are selling the CE physical copy in the UK). At least they are to me, i dont pay delivery at all and i order from both of them nearly for every game. oh and its £59.99 on gamestation and ive been told by game that as they are both the same company the price on release will be the same and the manager i spoke to thinks the Game site's price will change at some point.

Ok ive looked it up for you and i can confirm that Gamestation.co.uk do deliver to Slovenia (or however you spell it lol)

As its a european delivery this is the info on the cost of delivery:
All European Orders
3 to 5 business days
£2.95 per order
Slovenia is in the list of european countries that they deliver to.  As for that one store i think itll be the standard edition as on the official Mass Effect 3 page there isnt any store listed to sell the CE in Slovenia that i can find.

I hope this helps you out

Do you know that if you get the XBOX 360 version from say GameStop and the PC version from Best Buy, will the same code open the bonuses in both version?

Don't quote me on this, but that's how it worked with promo content in ME2 and DA2.  Chances are it will work that way.

That would be my assumption as well, since it has been done that way in previous Bioware games.

Is the Xbox 360 version also going down to £59.99 at GAME and Gamestation? Or will it still be an exorbitant £69.99?

Hmm im not too sure but ive never known a console game to be more expensive than the pc version on release date. my suggestion to that wud be to look up their customer services number and call them to ask. when i asked one of their managers it was actually a friend of mine and he knows i only go for the pc versions so he didnt really tell me about console prices.

They don't offer free shipping outside UK last time I checked.

yeah i did check that, in fact gamestation's international shipping costs aren't that bad.....only £2.95 per order to european countries yet other sites wud charge way more than that so its nothing to moan about really when companies here can charge double that for local deliveries sometimes.

Still, it would be about 5 € more than DDE or CE from Verkkokauppa.com.
