To be honest I've had mixed results with Amazon's first class delivery on pre-orders. I didn't get DA2 and one other until the middle of the following week. Though I got Fable 3 and NHL 12 on the day of release. My advice would be pay extra for expediated delivery, atleast while you're waiting you can obsessively track your order.Seeker Sparrow wrote...

Hmm, thinking of pre-ordering from Amazon now. Do they deliver pre-orders on the date they are released?
from what I know they do not but I would say order as fast as you can before everywhere is out of stock
They don't guarantee release date delivery, but if you pay for expedited delivery (which is pricey) it's pretty likely to arrive on the day (from past experience). Free supersaver? Not so much.
First class Delivery means you should get it on release day as the items will probably be dispatched the day before IIRC.

Thank goodness I decided to check on my preorder again today. Was able to get one from amazon, the only one of the retailers selling the N7s now that I've had positive experiences with in the past. I'm sure people have had good experiences with others, I just prefer to stick to ones I know from experience are good.
1 thing, though this may have already have been said, this isn't game's fault. Those money grabbing morons at EA decided to charge game twice the price for the copies "as it was the end of the financial year". So GAME would have had to increase prices for gamers or sold them at serious loss which they couldn't have afforded, so they decided that rather than increasing prices on gamers like EA did on them, they were going to make a stand and say that they weren't selling ME3 at all because this is not on. Now, as long as people can still get the editions they want, and I realise that's a big if, I think GAME did the right thing, as it saved everyone buying from there from paying way more than they should for their copies of ME3. I realise some people would have been happy to pay more to have avoided losing a CE copy, but GAME can't know who those people are, they had to either charge everyone more or stop selling it and hope that people can get one at a reasonable price from elsewhere.
This is EA messing people about again with money, and whoever decided to randomly charge game more, causing this fiasco and I'm sure causing dedicated fans to lose CEs, is a money grabbing moron that should be fired. EA, hello, it's not all about money, maybe you should think of the fans who've paid you considerable sums for one or both of the first 2 games and DLC up to this point, but no, you're perfectly happy to mess them about as long as it gets you more money, you disgust me.
I seriously feel for anyone who loses a CE because of this, and I seriously hope everyone who wants one can still get one. EA have gone way too far with this, this is completely unacceptable and money grabbing. You idiots who did this beacuse you can't think about anything but money should be ashamed of yourselves, though you'll no doubt be too busy thinking about your new money to be.
Nintendo also pulled their stock from GAME on a big new release. Are you saying that was also not the fault of GAME?
I wouldn't buy into their propaganda if i were you and just look at their track record and the fact they are having issues with multiple publishers not just EA.
EA simply took exception to their tactics of waiting so close to release and messing around so they just said "we don't want your store selling any of our titles at all"

So, if you pre-ordered from GAME does it just not take any money away from your account? I'm in one hell of a bind right now...

It's not EA or Bioware's fault, but it is one ****ty move for GAME for one major reason being the timing. Why felt needed to leave it to last week before release and bit before springing on everyone when they said only few weeks ago that ME3 preorders were safe and that the credit insurance issue was not going to effect preorders or stock for ME3.
Atleast EA did the smart thing in not giving them exclusivity to sell the CE in the UK. Unlike CDPR who have done that rather stupid thing of making GAME exclusive retailer for their Dark Edition here.

I agree that it isn't funny. BUT the amount of douchery that occured when alot of people claimed they were unable to get it before, and now those very people being affected is somewhat beautful in it's IronyTomY90 wrote...

I've done some research into this, I realise their track record certainly isn't excellent, but this isn't their fault, it's EAs. EA did not do what you claim, EA were being greedy, that's what caused this fiasco, not GAME. I'm certainly not saying GAME are great, but I do know that for once, this isn't their fault, it's the fault of money grabbing greedy people over at EA who were messing GAME about.

This is just for the UK right?
As GAME is owned by EB Games which is where I got my copy of the CE, but I'm in Canada. And EB Games is still advertising for a midnight lauch for ME3.. /paranoid

Clearly you did not do your research well enough. Isn't it a bit coincidental that GAME are having problems with multiple publishers? Or are all publishers just conspiring against GAME now?
I imagine your research was talking to staff from GAME who apparently have been told to tell anyone who asks that it is EA's fault. Fact is that GAME had no money to pay for what was agreed and they asked EA to give then credit which EA were not about to do and neither was Nintendo so both had their games pulled.
GAME can blame who they like and point fingers elsewhere. I suppose conspiracy theorists who want to believe EA is the devil and GAME is their fellow gamer being trod on by those evil publishers will back their ridiculous claims up.
