Gamers are just being gamers and panic ordering multiple copies out of paranoia. In all it does nothing but deny others a chance to re-pre order what they lost from GAME by taking up multiple copies.


Maybe.  I think theres more then enough reason to be paranoid when we dont know stock allocation to other retailers and the fact they are selling out in only a couple of hours.   Not everyone is panic buying and the quanties have still gone really quickly even if they were.

Ordered mine with ShopTo early this morning and pre-paid. It's a terrible situation, but in a way, I'm glad it's been put in the hands of a retailer I can trust. I fully expected GAME to screw up.

One concern however. Did anyone else not get a 'Preorder confirmation' email from ShopTo?

It's probably nothing to worry about. It is listed under my preorders and I've received payment confirmation. They just usually confirm via email when you place a preorder.


Somebody else did mention they didn't get an email. Though it was showing in their account. They've probably had so many orders the emails are slow to arrive.

Anybody know if this applies to gameplay.co.uk as well? I think they are part of the Game group and are merging with gamestation as of tomorrow :-/


If they are part of the GAME group then yes, it applies. Pre-order from Amazon or wherever still has it asap and cancel with gameplay before they cancel with you ...

I really wanted the Defender armor :( Hopefully Shopto is one of the retailers who get it.


I expect everyone to!  So much so im not even concerned about it.


The ordeal were all going through a week before release is enough of a reason in itself!  


It should be the case that everyone gets everything that was promised with the CE by GAME. The codes will be included in the box for the N7 gear and other DLC promised with it.

Gamers are just being gamers and panic ordering multiple copies out of paranoia. In all it does nothing but deny others a chance to re-pre order what they lost from GAME by taking up multiple copies.


it is true that if everyone did only have 1 allocation then alot more people could have a collectors edition.

I am glad I have only got just one order now (had 3 orders at one point after game)

but I am certain after the announced on who is getting the warfare pack there will be a shift of people cancelling orders on sites except the company that has the exclusives.

I changed my preorder to them and receved a confirmation e-mail, a few hours ago: check your spam filters/junk file perhaps?

Just got the Mass Effect 3: N7 Collector's Edition (Xbox 360) from Amazon.

Went into game today to otrder it, only to find out they couldn't stock it. Heard about this on the radio on the way home!

Started to get annoyed, but now I've got the collectors edition instead, which I wasn't even expecting to get! Nice.

Hope I get the pre order bonus code though, or I will be slightly peeved.

To make things clear Gameplay.co.uk has been owned by Game for quite some time now so will also be affected by this.

I got my preorder confirmation email right away, so i'm guessing they're just running behind due to the mad scramble to pre-order from them instead.

I pre-ordered mine from amazon too. It's not showing up in a normal search from amazon weirdly. I had to follow a direct link someone posted here. did you do the same?

What a complete shambles. :blink:

Hate that i've had to pre-order more than one copy just incase something else goes wrong. <_<


I feel proper sorry for people who pre-ordered way back last year and could now miss out because of this, it's just wrong, yo. :unsure:


They could also miss out because of you and many others taking up pre orders by panic ordering multiple copies.

The worse thing is that it's a week from launch. It wouldn't have been so bad like a month before say.

This is making me a little nervous, this is from the EA press release:

For further information regarding the Mass Effect 3 Standard Edition with the N7 Warfare Gear in-game weapons pack, please check this page later today.

The part that worries me is it says STANDARD EDITION with the N7 Warefare Gear.

The ONLY good thing to come out of this is all the people in England who said "should have got it earlier" are suffering too

BOOM!
