Got home from work today to find that my copy had arrived! I won't be playing it just yet, but I'm glad to have the extras there to look through.

Be careful with the artbook!  I've heard that it can ruin your experience as it contains massive spoilers pertaining to the story.  I should have thought about that, but it didn't even enter my mind.  Luckily I saw a post on here about it and have not opened the book at all.  It'll be my treat for completing the game!

Did anyone else not get their dogtags from their Gamestop UK order? My friend was going to give me his, but he didn't get any...

Well I missed out thanks to the postman arriving at the time I started at work, and to add salt to the wound this was probably the worst day of work I've had so far this year.

Got mine today - the PC CE version - registered all the content and just need to make sure all the extra content is working when I start playing soon..... Talking about GAME screwups concerning Mass Effect, I got a short little story about when I bought Mass Effect 2 on PC in a GAME store a while back. I went to buy Mass Effect 2 on PC, whilst it was cheap in store and the girl at the counter was new. Whilst she was serving me, putting the discs and manual in the case, she was really busy chatting away to one of her mates who popped in to see her, and I thought nothing of it seeing how she's new and all. I bought it, got home, started installing it, and then it asked for Disc 2, and in the case - lo and behold - Image IPB there was NO Disc 2 Image IPB. Called them up, asked them is there are a Disc 2 lying around (the disc the girl forgot to put in the case?), and the guy on the phone went, 'Yes' and I got him to keep it to one side so I could go back into town, and collect it from the shop. Got an apology from the guy when I went back to pick it up. Needless to say, I was completely shocked that she forgot to put it in - I mean I understand if she's new and all, but come on, no Disc 2=no Mass Effect 2! But I didnt lose sleep over it seeing how amazing Mass Effect 2 was! Moral of story, if you ever want to buy Mass Effect from GAME ever in the future (who knows????), FORGET IT! Short story over, Mass Effect 3 awaits.....

Question: The pre-order codes; should I wait until I've got the game and online pass set up before I redeem them? Or will they work fine when I get the game if I redeem them now.

Mine arrived today!  I may be being stupid but where do we download the digital soundtrack? Can't see it on the game content page on my profile?

Hi

I think everyone is p****d off with the way that this has been handled and I really feel for those ppl who've been let down, not once (bad enough), but TWICE. And yeah, you can your money back hopefully but doesn't make up for the fact that you can't get hold of a game you probably ordered last June as I did.

Someone said that EA may produce some more copies that was last week so it could have changed.

I have thankfully got a CE and standard copy of ME3. I was amazed that neither had to be signed for so I wonder how many copies will disappear??? Anything like our postie and half our post goes elsewhere and we get other people's.

In answer to VenusInFlares, you login to Origin on the account you use to play ME2 and forum. Launch install for ME3. Enter any bonus codes into Origin and they will download automatically. If you click on the little "i" to left of the game icon (in Origin) it gives you the progress of each download and a description.

About the art book (I saw someone post above) yeah it does contain spoilers lol. I've only read the first page. It tells you stuff like where you'll meet the character, as well as what they were thinking about their appearance etc. If (like me) you don't even wanna know who you all get in your team this time, I wouldn't read it as it seems to have all that kind of stuff too.

Anyone else still waiting on HMV orders?

Yeah, I'm still waiting for my HMV order to arrive. It was dispatched Wednesday apparently, but despite their "aim" to get it to me by release day, it's still not here. I did, however, receive this email this morning:

Thanks for pre-ordering the Mass Effect 3: Collectors Edition on Xbox 360. Your order will arrive in time for release on 9th March 2012 (UK deliveries only, release date subject to change).

Instructions for downloading Warfare Gear Pack are as follows:

NB: Promotion codes are case sensitive and must be entered exactly as displayed. Please DO NOT download your exclusive DLC before you have installed the game.

1- Sign into Xbox Live from the Xbox Dashboard

2- Select 'Xbox Live Marketplace'

3- Select the 'Redeem Codes' and when prompted enter the following code:

[code removed - I'm not that stupid]

4- Follow the on-screen instructions to redeem the promotion code

We hope you enjoy this extra content.


So I take from that the following information:

1. I should get my game yesterday. I didn't.
2. I am getting the N7 Warfare gear after all. I wasn't expecting to, from HMV.
3. I shouldn't redeem the code until I have the game. Dunno why, I presume that's more for PC gamers rather than Xbox, but okay, whatever.

Another car just drove past. Every time I hear one, I jump up to see if it's the post van. It isn't.

Sorry if this has allready been answered, but this thread is loong . I pre-ordered from GAME in store and when I came to collect on release day they told me they had none and gave me the £5 credit. I pre-ordered from GAME for the N7 warfare gear pack, and I am guessing as it is now after the pre-order period I cannot get the code? Can EA or Bioware issue me with a code as i DID actually pre-order or because I did not pay attention to the Mass Effect news have I lost out?

Thanks guys.

Sorry to say your late to the party if you had been paying attention to Mass Effect news or even news about Game you would have knew, that the end of last month Game/Gamestation was stocking Mass Effect 3 and you had to Pre-Order elsewhere. 

As you can no longer Pre-Order you cant get the Bonus's anymore im sorry to say you will have to have the Standard Edition with none of the thrills.

A lot of stores are still advertising that dlc as part of their offers when it comes to the game. 

Look at this link:

http://www.ea.com/uk...fect-3-update-1

Check the stores that are advertising the N7 Warfare Gear, and e-mail them to know if they still give those bonuses even after launch. I think they will, but only an e-mail can gice you an oficial answer...

Well, they were certainly terrible when I got my CE from them yesterday. Not only was there no Warfare Gear (which is listed on EA's site as being available with Amazon.co.uk) but I didn't even get the Argus rifle, which is supposed to be available to everyone who preorders. So I'd like some answers. Or what I'd really like is for all that gear to be released as DLC at a later date. Preferably free DLC, but I don't see that happening.
