Any chance that HMV gets the Warfare pack?


Not certain yet but there might be a chance that other retailers get them.

Sorry not an email, but a phone call.  But the email isnt as assertive compared to the above reassurance.

Additionally JaHawk has already recieved an email saying his preorder has been cancelled

These things combined...   Not optimistic :? :(

I had a XBOX360 CE pre-ordered frrom Amazon.fr & asked the same questions, apparently the game will run fine on a UK XBOX. Chris Priestly confirmed that all copies can be toggled to English voice acting & subtitles. I assume the codes will work just fine, the only problem will be that the artbook & comic will be in French. If you're fine with that, go ahead & order.

Same goes for PS3 & PC.

Okay, I just called my friend. 

He said he never had trouble redeeming codes, they all worked.

So yeah, all of it should be fine.

I ordered from play minutes after it went up, so it better not be cancelled. At this point I'm happy to wait as long as I get my CE.

There was an announcement on the Amazon forums not long ago about a a person who inquired about HMV CE stock. It basically said:

"The
N7 edition will be sold by us but, we still don't know how meny copies
we are allowed to sell. Due to this reason we will not offer more N7
edition's untill we have confirmation from EA. We decided we had no
choice but to remove any remaining stock this morning untill further
confirmation from EA."

In other words HMV probably haven't sold out, yet some of the orders already placed may be for stock that doesn't exist. Best advice is to just keep checking their website this weekend.

Up to this week I was in the camp of no more CEs to be made, people had the chance for months to get it sorted. Now I wouldn't mind seeing a few more produced and distributed, ease my concerns in case stuff falls through and I get nothing.

Wish I stuck with shopto now, what they charged my card is now only available to be used on their site. Asked if could reapply my pre-order as was cancelled after they made the product unavailable, unlikely I know but make me more stable.


call them and they'll refund it right away - they did with me


Well, using the credit I did buy the SE on PS3 with shirt and N7 warefare pack. Going to get that at some point, with bonuses in the region of £15 to £20 as well sounds like a deal. My priority is that I get the CE from Play or that can obtain one next week if not. Not cancelled yet but I wont feel at ease until I see email saying taken payment or dispatched.

I never thought I'd say this.... but does anyone think it might be a good idea to post links to eBay scum auctions ending soon in the hope someone can snag a deal (hopefully not going over £80?)

Guys, I recently recieved this E-mail from play.com, one of the people who I tried to order the game from, but stock ran out:

"We are writing to advise that your recent order requires further verification before we are able to dispatch it to you.

********* - Mass Effect 3: N7 Collectors Edition (With Pre-Order Bonus N7 Warfare Gear Pack Download) (Kinect Compatible)

To verify your order please sign in to your account, where you will be presented with a 'Verify Now' option. We will hold your order for a further 24 hours. After this period the order will lapse, and subsequently will be cancelled.

Kind Regards

Play.com"

Looked on their site and it says I have an order for the game requiring verification. Basically, I tried to order from them to get the CE, but I got to the paying page and it had a hissy-fit right before it asked for my security password-ma-bob, does this mean that I actually have an order for the collector's edition from them? I currently have another pre-order with HMV, but I've been hoping to move away from that to get my pre-order DLC.

Also, does anyone know whether you can cancel your order with HMV after you've been charged with no downsides?

It looks like even though it threw a hissy fit that you still got into the pre-order "queue". Have you done the verification (whatever it asks you to do)?

Edit* - Yes, distance selling regulations give you 7 days to withdraw from the sale.

Not yet, I need my brother to do it (Long story, it's in his name because he's got money, I don't and am paying him back for it) and he's on his way to work. Once he gets back though, it should be fine, considering I recieved the e-mail at 6:03 today and I have 24 hours.

I ordered my collectors edition (360 version) from Sainsbury's a couple of days ago. I was worried that it wouldn't include the pre-order bonus stuff. I ordered it anyway - I'm lucky to get a copy at all, right? I checked the product this morning and while it is still sold out they now have 'Also available as part of [LIMITED Mass Effect 3 Pre-Order N7 Warfare Gear Pack codes available]' I'm not really sure if that means I will get the codes or not but I'm going to call them to clarify that. I'll post if I get any info.

Yeah, EA have confirmed that sainsbury's get pre-order DLC as well now. The only major places I know of who aren't getting the N7 Warfare Pack are HMV and Gamestop.

Emailed them yesterday, haven't received a reply yet. Didn't secure it elsewhere, no - ordered a Standard Edition with T-Shirt & DLC from ShopTo, at least that way I can definitely play the game on release day.
