I would just like to point out that Game.co.uk and Gamestation.co.uk are owned by the same company.

Was a bit surprised when I read about the PC price hike from GAME and yet Gamestation stays that 10 quid cheaper.

Weird.

Thanks for the info. That likely means that it coming to Amazon.co.uk or Play.com is unlikely then if Game/GS have a monopoly :/

Yeah, I mentioned that in my email.

I really don't understand the price difference... o_O

Here the answer I recieved from amazon.co.uk. Sadly not really helpful. That about Game and Gamestation being owned by one company will let me look like an idiot, when they read my email XD here the answer I got from amazon.co.uk after asking if they're going to get it:

Yes, well, that's entirely up to you. 

I think the issue is more the fact that GAME has hiked the price up way over every other retailer.

Personally, I'm not sure that this CE is worth £70, and I will probably cancel my preorder with GAME... :/

the normal version is available for 27,99 Punds =31,5731 Euro = 45,8126 Dollar

the Collector's Edition is 69,99 Pounds = 78,9498 Euro = 114,5561 Dollar

at current stock

that is +150%! that means vor 1 Ce you could get 2 and a half normal editions if the price stays the same.

I'm not sure if the aditional content is really worth that.

Well that's up to you but I personally think that this is a dirty move by Game or whoever is responsible for the upped price (EA?) and they're clearly trying to rip us off. I'm not buying it for £70 when you can get the standard edition for £27.99- it's simply not worth it.

I think, and this is just speculation, that it was a decision by GAME.
If it was EA, surely the price in Gamestation would have increased too, as both GAME and Gamestation are owned by the same company?
I dunno >:/

...And that is why gaming companies will keep charging extortionate prices, and get away with it...

Absolutely ridiculous. Anyone that pays £70 for this has no self respect.

Well, this makes my choice over which version to get alot easier. I can live without an artbook and bonus character. Hell, for the difference, I could buy a brand new game.

Or isn't spending their own money. :P

True.

I'm gonna hold out for a while - see if the price drops or I can find a better retailer.
If not, i'll cancel it and get the bloody standard edition...

I love Mass Effect, but i'm not going to pay 70 quid for some extra content, an art book, sound track and N7 patch, i'm afraid.

Good point, but EA are charging £54.99 for just the Digital edition, which is a lot considering you miss out on all the physical items, so they are partly to blame.

The CE content is the robot dog, some N7 guns, a hoody for Shepard to wear (:pinched:) and an alternate appearance pack (as well as the steel case, artbook and N7 patch). The extra character will almost certainly be for sale seperately.

They call it additional content, I call it content removed from the normal version.

They just want people to pay extra to get the full game, sadly people do.

Oh yeah, no doubt.  EA aren't blameless in this situation - they are absolute ******* when it comes to overcharging for games.

70£ is truly expensive a completely unjustified price. You've got to ask yourself is the bonus content worth the same as an entire game, on amazon you can buy 2 copies of the regular version for less than the ce and have money left over

This is especially true when the physical items are nothing that special anyway. I was hoping for a reaper figurine or something similar, but an N7 patch? :pinched:
