Us Canucks too, not just the US. But then again Bioware has always been lousy serving its fans in its own country.

Looks like we in the UK are screwed, check out the ME3 pre-order website on Origin:
store.origin.com/store/eaemea/en_GB/DisplayProductDetailsPage/ThemeID.850300/productID.244041900

Origin UK claims to have the EXCLUSIVE on the N7 Warfare Gear! They also mention the Argus Rifle & Raider Shotgun but we knew about those... my question will be what happened to GAME UK having the N7 Warfare Gear exclusive... GAME UK still haven't got it on their website, have EA done a 180 on them!?!

I want my physical CE from GAME... but I also want all of the bonus content...

Ok I looked at the OP but I'm still a tad confused about the bonuses.

I preordered the standard ME3 from amazon... so I'll get

* Argus AR

and since I played the KOA demo I'll get

* Reckoning-Knight Armor
*Chakram gun

Correct?

I had fun for the first few minutes of the Amalur demo. And by first few minutes I mean character creation and realizing that you can strip your character's clothes off and run around the world in naught but your underthings. (Female characters ftw, though I wish your persuasion stat was inversely proportional to how much you were wearing, but thats me ranting on all games that can do that.)

Underneath it just felt like Skyrim only not nearly as amazing and with older themed graphics. Not low-quality, but just themed more to the Fantasy-RPG idea of a few years ago. Story was rather interesting, and if I reealy feel like it, i'd buy it and play it with the Omni-Blade daggers and N7 armor.

Anyway, the Reckoning Knight Armor and Chakram Launcher look fantastic!!

Update: Origin updated the info on their UK website, they're clearly indicating the Raider Shotgun in Origin exclusive (as known) but haven't done that for the N7 Warfare Gear, so for me thats a positive sign that GAME UK will still get the N7 Warfare Gear; I just wish they would hurry up and update their website as I prefer hard copies to digital versions!

On a side note, isn't it strange than none of the main UK game sites (except Origin) are stating the ME3 preorder bonuses? Amazon, Game, Play.com, Gamestop UK, Gamestation UK, HMV... I could go on but none of them mention the preorder bonuses. I remember for ME2 the above websites did advertise their Ironman Inferno Armour (Play.com for the Terminus Gear) around the time BioWare anounced the preorder bonuses... are the web teams from all those sites still recovering from the New Year?

Don't know if this has been answered already, but does anyone know if Game supply the pre-order bonus DLC for instore pre-orders, not just online?

Game (in the UK at least) don't even seem to know if there is any pre-order bonus content, whether via online or offline sales. I emailed them on Friday and they got back to me today basically stating:
'We do not have
details of any available preorder promotion for this title at this time.
As soon as this information becomes available to us we will update our
website immediately, please keep checking our website for the latest information"


Not much help when narrowing down the best options for purchasing a title. Have EA not actually told their distributors who is getting what yet? Seems more than a little ridiculous trying to promote pre-order sales for a product and then not knowing what type of 'carrot' is being dangled before potential customers. For all we know, the 'carrot' will turn out to be a parsnip.

 Guys. I am seething and on the brink of a mental breakdown/ragequit rampage.  

Link for all to see this sh*t!

It says that the new Mass Effect action figures will come with exclusive DLC unavailable anywhere else, which means if you want the full Mass Effect 3 experience, you need to drop some big bucks on all of the rather unsightly figures. (Legion would be tolerable tho...)

It may not be preorder DLC, but it's DLC nonetheless.

Each one is 20 bucks a pop, 75 if you buy 4 at a time, so that's at least 150 dollars down the drain right off if you want to own all the content set to be available so far. Added on to Gamestop preorder of the CE and Origin Preorder of the sock game for all the known pre-order exclusives, the total racks up to, let's see...

290 dollars.

Not what I expect to pay to get a game's 'full experience'.

Honestly. What kind of greedy coporate drugs were they taking when this idea grew in their heads??

Anyone know why the PEGI rating for the N7 editions is 18 (for the UK anyway) but 15 for the standard editions? Does that suggest something in the extra DLC character mission is either more graphic or saucy than normal?

Apparently the robotic dog has a backstory. 

And that might be true for the extra character and mission, we'll just have to wait and see.

Though it could be because the comic or the art book contains graphic content. Concept art of huskified mutants can be a whole load scarier and gorier than the in-game adaptation.

I shall choose to believe it involves x-rated robodog leg 'friendliness' (wonder if Kelly returns for Me3, what with the allegations about the Varren thing)  that is deemed too extreme for young impressionable minds. Fairly academic to me, not being able to source a CE copy and being near enough twice the upper age limit anyway.

I missed preordering the N7 Edition from gamestop before they sold out in the US, so I figured I'd order from Origin. I'm trying to find out if preordering from Origin will get me the argus rifle and AT12 shotgun since I would be ordering the xbox 360 version and not PC. I came across this press release on EA's announcement website

AT-12 Raider Shotgun – Available to PC players who
pre-order through EA’s Origin service*, the AT-12 Raider Shotgun fires a
large pellet spread, ensuring maximum coverage for close-range targets.
Designed for superior rapid fire, the AT-12 allows for optimal recovery
time between shots.

Link: http://info.ea.com/release.asp?i=1469

Contrary to some of the opinions earlier in this thread, the official statement makes NO mention of the shotgun being available to console preorders on Origin. Just PC specifically. So if anyone has any sort of official clarification of this, it would be really helpful. Otherwise, its something for console owners that have preordered from Origin already hoping to get the AT12 shotgun bonus to watch out for and think about.

[mrkt7]

I'm italian.

If it is true that the AT-12 Shotgun is only available to PC pre-orders on Origin, then perhaps there is hope that the weapon will show up in a future DLC pack that all platforms will be able to purchase.

If i pre-order the standard edition from origin i get the shotgun correct? The same goes for a Standard edition from EB Games (Canada) for the armor right? I don't have to get the collectors edition to get those items correct?

From what I'm hearing on this thread, only the PC version of the game preordered from Origin gets the shotgun.

And yes, EB Games preorders have the Defender Armor. You also get the N7 Valkyrie and the 
Argus assault rifles.

@purplehaybusa
Those ME Figurines DLC was already known for some time. It's probably nothing more than MP DLC (just like the DLC that comes with the Mass Effect Universe art book).

I suspect that these DLC's only give you weapons for use in MP that you otherwise have to earn by getting points or something by playing MP.

I'm sure that those who do not purchase those figurines miss out on nothing but "quick access" to these items.

I don't know about you guys, but I would much rather bring Urz on the Nomandy than a robo-dog.

So I pre-ordered the N7 edition at best buy, so I get the argus rifle with the other goodies. Then there are the items from the KOA demo. This is a wishful longshot, but is there anyway to get the gamestop bonuses without buying the game. Unfortunately I waited too long to pre order the N7 edition there, and the valkerie rifle and defender armor looked really nice.

If I buy the digital deluxe edition on gamestop, will I get the Defender Armor?
Asking cuz in the page for the digital delux doesn't mention that.

Getting the Gamestop bonus without buying the game there is a piece of cake. Tons of people sell the codes on EBay. It also might depend on whether the code is on a physical card bundled in the game or a recipt or email or something else. regardless, it''s just a code and you should be able to easily get one without buying the game.

If you do buy one off of EBay, expect to hand over a very substantial sum for just a suit of armor and a gun.

Two million copies sold in the first day. Another seven million by the end of the first week. Every sales record, annihilated. All competing games on the run, raging, somewhere. Reports are coming in from other major game developers. It's a well coordinated release, and so far it's been damned effective. Don't know what it is, what it wants, or where it came from. Only one thing is certain, if Shepard doesn't bring help soon, there won't be any more copies left to sell.
