maybe it will later on...i also think it depends on what your other options are for getting it, i mean for the CE in the Uk we only got the 2 choices, Game or Origin, and i doubt EA would give preorder bonuses to a company not doing the CE. US has Amazon, Gamestop and origin, Probably more but i dont know all their retailers


I already had my CE pre-ordered from a GameStop store, which is the only retailer doing the CE in Portugal, but apparently GameStop is going to close business here BEFORE ME3's release date so technically there is no retailer doing the CE except for Origin which only offers the digital version of the game and no N7 Warfare Gear.

Have you thought about importing it from Game.co.uk the pc and ps3 version of the CE are still in stock plus preorder bonuses are given even with standard editions aren't they?


Yes, as I have said in previous posts I have thought about pre-ordering from GameStop US or more recently from Game UK but no one guarantees me that the codes can be redeemed outside the country to which that bonus is directed at.

For example, GameStop here in Portugal was not offering the N7 Warfare Gear as a pre-order bonus despite offering it in the US, which means the same company can have different bonus policies to different Countries.

i honestly dont think the codes will be region locked, its just a sequence of number and letteres and as long as you got it by preordering it there should be no problem. Id understand if the codes are platform locked as i can see how they could manage that but i dont see how they could region lock the codes it wouldnt make sense.

Codes aren't region locked as far as I know.

With ME2 there was not region lock with any pre-order DLC as I bought the game twice (xbox and pc) and then traded one armor (PC) for another (US PC version) that was not available in my region and I could even use it on my xbox.

Well if this is the case then all I have left to decide is to wether import it from GameStop US or GAME UK. Is there official confirmation from BioWare that GAME UK will receive the N7 Warfare Gear as a pre-order bonus? There is no information regarding that bonus in their website :S

I haven't seen this confirmed anywhere.

Is the Origin exclusive shotgun available for all platforms? Or will it be like the Incisor Rifle and be PC only?

Origin makes no mention of ME3 pre-order bonuses anywhere on their store.

I was all panicked there... I preordered the CE from Game UK because it seemed common knowledge that they had the warfare pack.

I did a search of all their FB statuses and Twitter posts from the last 4 months and nothing.....

It may be that Game HAD it, and couldnt finalize the deal. Or perhaps Game just can't announce it until Bioware announce it. Or maybe we were all imagining it......

Game are getting it all you have to do is look on the Mass effect 3 site its there on preorder page if you select the country as UK....Game just havent put it on their site yet, probably because they wont until they have the codes and EA probably havent sent them yet....it was confirmed on Game's facebook page a while back plus if you go to a store some managers already know about it......GAME UK are getting it, if they dont then Mass effect 3 Site is wrong and i doubt that as its an EA site

On the Dutch EA store it states for both the standard digital and the digital deluxe version that you get N7 Defender Armor + N7 Valkyrie Assault Rifle + M55 Argus Assault Rifle + AT12 Raider Shotgun. Is this actually correct or did something go wrong in translation? I can't view the store in other languages.

its probably correct as the UK one is the same....Think Origin are making it all available to the majority of countries

Yes it is correct. In fact, most of the EU gets these bonuses when they pre-order from Origin.

I placed a second pre-order just for the bonuses (my OCD counterpart told me to), but I'm considering to cancel it and pre-order KoA instead...

I agree, but I must point out - GAME have removed the Facebook and twitter post. GAME customer service team are saying they don't have it. The GAME manager I spoke to 20 mins ago I store had no idea what I was talking about.

Then again GAME have just removed PayPal from their site - so they're clearly idiots! Lol

yea but why would EA put it on the main ME3 site if Game wasnt getting the bonuses then? it doesnt make sense, Its all over the internet that Game are getting the bonuses.....i think Game are just not telling customers anything on purpose and leaving it as a suprise or something or they are still waiting on codes.....look at these links and tell me they are wrong:

www.xbox360achievements.org/news/news-10474-UK-Pre-Order-Bonuses-for-Mass-Effect-3-Revealed--GAME-Get-Retailer-Exclusives.html

www.masseffect.com/me3/game/preorderbonus/  (Make sure this one you choose UK in country selector)

www.ps3trophies.org/news/news-5511-UK-Pre-Order-Bonuses-for-Mass-Effect-3-Revealed--GAME-Get-Retailer-Exclusives.html

www.videogamer.com/xbox360/mass_effect_3/news/exclusive_pre-order_bonus_for_mass_effect_3_at_game_2.html

Theres more but there is no way these sites are wrong plus there was a press release somewhere about it as well from EA themselves....think its on this thread or it might be on another one but i dont have time to go looking for it.

I tend to go by what i can see and going by these sites GAME are getting the bonuses they just aint telling their customers for some reason

Soriah, i totally agree alot of the evidence points to game getting it and i hope it does cos i have my pre order with them, The worry is that they were getting it and something changed and now they arent since all those links are about 2 weeks old.

What i find even stranger is that no where in the UK has anything listed, for example every pre order gets the argus rifle however nowhere (eg amazon, play, hmv) is listing that either

hmm true.....i have to admit i want the N7 warfare gear so what i might do is try to contact my m8 who works for Game and if he doesnt know ill get him to find out if he can...if not i might just switch to origin tho i really hate having books in a pdf format :S

right cant get hold of my friend so i have emailed both EA and Game asking the same thing and saying i want an honest answer....lets see what they both say because the official ME3 site wasnt updated saying Game had the bonuses til yesterday, before yesterday even the UK page had Gamestop where Game is now so its recent enought to be real surely.

Cool, keep us updated Soriah, appreciate it, end of the day i havent got a choice where i pre-order from as game is only place doing the ce edition, I am right in thinking that Origin only provides pc version?

i think so yeah as its a digital download. Its wrong really US gets 3 or 4 choices but we only get 1 for the physical CE....if i dont get an answer by monday ill call both companys again and have a chat about it and see if i can get some answers. It would be so much easier if my friend would just stop being ill and get back on the radar so i can get in touch with him but ill keep trying him as well though....gotta get an answer of someone right? :P

 I PM'd him several days ago myself. I asked him if we will be seeing an update regarding retailers and pre-order bonuses. His reply:

"We are working on it, but retailers are a bit slow getting back to us. We're still at it though."
