Everybody who hasn't secured their copies yet:
Amazon.co.uk
Zavvi.co.uk
ShopTo.net
Play.com
Gamestop.ie (from Ireland)

Check the above websites, they are all selling them. Only Amazon, Blockbuster and Gamestop have 360 version left.

Edit: And Blockbuster.co.uk

 But doesn't this surely mean that in fact there isn't a lack of N7 editions seeing as how game can't get them there should be thousands left that the other retailers will be picking up.


I dont want to think about it....should i just order a normal edition as well just in case ? heh...


The stock Game were going to get allocated has to go somewhere ;) I would imagine to the other retailers, keep faith guys!

sounds like a good idea. After all you can cancel closer to the release date if your retailer pulls through on your collectors edition if not you've still got ME3

Many have thanked the OP for this thread. I would also like to thank the UK winds for blowing the Space Edition away from me.

If I had grabbed that, I'd be sitting all smug and cozy, playing away and looking forward to my N7 Edition from Game, completely unaware of the hammer (shaped as a middle finger), about to cave the back of my skull in.

:lol: Bet you will.

This is one of the worst days of my life. I got a call this morning from my girlfriend to let me know that her store, GAME, would not be stocking Mass Effect 3 special editions, or regular editions, or any copies of any other EA games because of GAME'S financial troubles. Which means my pre-order of the ME3 special edition is virtually worthless (though they will give you £5 worth of reward points as a sort of apology).

She knew how much i was looking forward to it which is presumably why she sounded a little sad when she told me on the phone. I told her not to worry about it and that it wasn't her fault, but then added "well, maybe if you had sex with more of the other customers GAME would have a larger and more loyal clientbase". She took the joke as intended, but it opened up another line of conversation that bN doesn't need to know about, that lasted at least 10 minutes.

10 minutes that if i'd used more wisely, by, say, getting to a computer and pre-ordering a copy of the N7 edition from Amazon or Zavvi, i would have probably been able to secure a copy of the N7 edition. But as it is, by the time i had finished prattling on the phone, everywhere had already sold out.

Now i'll have to get the regular version, which doesn't come with a tin case with the female Shepard on the front, so i wont be able to paint over her red hair, changing it blonde. I'm not so much upset for myself missing out on the hardcover art book or the litograph of the Normandy, but more because i've let blondekind down.

The stock being sold IS the stock that Game were allocated. Until the announcement today that they are screwed and can't fulfill the orders they had the exclusive.

Gamestop Ireland or Blockbuster. You'd best hurry though. While you're reposting this sad story, those places are selling out. Blondekind awaits.

Regarding the EA annoucement:
http://www.ea.com/uk...fect-3-update-1

Anybody out there... particularly EA employees... the wording seems to imply that the pre-order dlc is for the standard editions... it doesn't say that it's for both... there's no mention of this dlc for N7 editions at all. Some clarification on this in particular when THE annoucement comes out would be nice.

Yup, no idea when they will dispatch it, my guess would be monday or tuesday, so make sure the money is in your account at the start of next week!

@blacqout A couple of sites still seem to have the N7 edition. The 360 version seems to be the hardest to find, but it is out there still.

Oh crap, I didn't realise Game had the exclusive on it!

It's funny cus at my local Game it had gone ME3 crazy with marketing, this is going to have cost them so much in marketing D:

The stock being sold IS the stock that Game were allocated. Until the announcement today that they are screwed and can't fulfill the orders they had the exclusive.

Yes it is a pickle, the only things that interest me in the CE are the DLC and steelbook case.  I got a nice collection of steelbooks over the last few years, was extremely disappointed when GAME (yes their failing goes back years) shipped me Soul Calibur IV with no steelbook, offered me £5 off code as a sorry despite me wanting the case.  Then I walk into a GAME store the next day and see steelbooks piled the the ceiling...but I was not allowed one.  Also SCIV turned out to be rubbish.

Hope you enjoyed the story.


Ahh did alright in the end then.  Steel covers are a nice thing to have. B)

Part of the reason I wanted the CE so badly was the FemShep cover,  but since she is now on the standard edition im not that fussed anymore.  In fact she is on two sides and only on one for the CE!  :o ^_^


But its the last game in the trilogy and its something Im sure I will always appreciate so its still a no brainer.

:happy:

Thats why I am so annoyed about this.  On top of the fact something similar happened with DA2 launch that almost overshadowed the game for me!   Im dissappointed just as much as I am worried about my orders.

:unsure:
