WHAT THE ****?????

BIOWARE

I have ordered a collectors edition - and put down a deposit on it - where can I get a PS3 collectors edition with the preorder incentives offered by GAME


Others have already posted the link but I'll just jump in to confirm: http://www.ea.com/uk...ffect-3-update

At this time we're unable to make further comment - The retailers listed on the site will all ship the N7 Collectors Edition. Check back on the site later on for more information on which retailers will be offering the N7 Warfare pack.

I understand my response isn't the most ideal right now, when we're able to say more we will.

Thanks for the conformation anyway

Nice one EAGAME..... My pre-order on Game for the CE edition when it was initially released was £50.. now all CE editions are £59.99 or above... and 1 week before release..


It's not really EA's fault if GAME refuse to stock their game because EA don't want to extend credit.

Still no sign of it on amazon.co.uk, I hope they get it to as I'd be tempted to switch from the regular edition now as I have a gift voucher balance on there.

Nintendo seem to be following suit.

Yeah, I don't see how this is EA/Bioware's fault at all... it's bad business on GAME's part.

well I disagree there

there were X amount of CE edition made and X amount of Xbox ones were sold - unless online retailers have to take proof of original order before letting you place a new one, some people that had an order secured for many months are now going to miss out.

EA should be protecting these customers - give game the credit they need for JUST the collectors edition.... how can GAME not afford to pay it? The CE have all been PRE ordered.... they will be gone within 24 hours

*cries* I hate play.com and I've never had any experience with shopto.net, I think I'll order with play.com but there delivery is bloody awful, probably wont even get it on release date >.> WHY GAME WHYYY 7 months I had it bloody preordered with you!!! I even blooody contacted GAME directly and they guaranteed, and gave me asurance that this would not happen. :crying::crying::crying::crying:


Seriously, go with shopto.net. In my experience I have nearly always got my order day before release, and its never been late! They even email you a picture of the package they send on dispatch, just for peace of mind!!
Though, i find play.com to be alright when it comes to pre-orders!
Good luck!

That sounds more promising than Play.com's '3-5 working day' delivery promise, thanks! I'll preorder with Shopto instead.

Ohohoho, what a bloody joke this has turned out to be.

Bye GAME, and if none of these retailers can supply me with the CE what then? I already had my preorder safe and sound.

switched my order to shopto... pc CE is 55... not seen it cheaper, and at least i will have it for release. play are useless when it come to getting stuff on release day - although they have changed owners so might be better now.

although better late than never. yes game, im looking at you.

The fact that they gave GAME exclusivity on the Collector's edition is EA's fault.  Even if they couldn't have know that GAME's finances were in so poor shape, that sort of thing is always going to be bad for consumers.

By Game.co.uk my pre order is still a pre order...... an i pre ordered the day game allowed you to pre order mass effect 3 on there site back in june. from what i been reading so far these are rumours and no offical word as been confirmed by Game just "insider news"   each one i have read so far seems to bend the story there own way

Same problem, only £70 gift card, I was only buying the regular version of ME3, but now its £40 out my pocket and £70 in vouchers and nothing I want to buy with them.

Probably end up buying games I don't really want just to make sure they do not get wasted.  Or PSN/XBL points (because unless you on PC you gonna need them for ME3 DLC at some point)

ShopTo do have the CEs up for pre-order. I had to go through the news section to find them, but they seem to be on the front page now.

Cancelled my GAME online pre-order and ordered through them now.

What a farce (though I vastly prefer ShopTo to any other game retailer anyway).

I'm gonna preorder from Play.com and Shopto, a friend has already said he'll buy a second copy from me if I get two. I feel like I'm being greedy now, but I don't trust Play or shopto, never used them hardly.

Is there anyway for someone who did one of these preorders to secure one for sure or is it just luck of the draw again. Would be nice if there was a way to transfer it somehow.

I feel for all you UKers, worst possible timing for this to happen.
