OMFG just got back from a nice day out to this! I've had a pre-order since June... everywhere is sold out - I am so gutted right now...


Quite a few people have ordered multiple copies from multiple retailers out of paranoia. Keep an eye out on the various retailers for cancellations.

And for those who are unable to get the collectors edition, coz it's out of stock or they're waitin to see whether it's worth the extra cash for the DLC (like me) - the standard edition is £32.90 at Tesco Entertainment when you use the code on their site here. It doesn't include the N7 Armour or Argus Rifle but that saving of £7 will pay for the 'FromAshes' if (most probably when)  I decide to download it of the PSN. Hope that's helped some of why fellow UK peeps.

BTW, kudos to EA/Bioware for sorting out the new stockists of the CE and SE with pre-order bonuses so quickly. It's made the extremely frustating situation slightly more bareable Posted Image

I'd like to assure you that everyone who can help in this situation is indeed working on it. It's become clear to us now that we wont have a list of confirmed retailers who will carry the N7 Warfare pack until tomorrow. As soon as we do we'll communicate it. 

We're doing everything in our power to address this as soon as possible. 

Why can every retailer not just get it? What is the point of retail exclusive after this point and after this much failure?


I agree.  Whats worse is for most people ordering has been pot luck.  No one has had any way to make a informed decision on what retailer to go for.   If one retailer gets it and another doesnt then being hard done by is an understatement.

I do hope everyone gets the DLC that was originally offered.   This isnt Game customers mistake and many of us arnt interested in the behind the scenes deals that retailers do in regards to DLC content.

Just back from my local Game with my friend-She didn't beleive me and dragged me to the store to see if it was true.

Turns out the staff at my local store arn't happy as they all ordered the N7 edition and were being very vocal about what they think about it-Including the store Manager.

will play.com come with the n7 warfare kit?


*niko belic voice*we can only weeesh*niko belic voice*.

Edit: The stupid thing is it's russian roulette. They should have known that the collector's editions would all be sold out [except for the ps3 versions] by the time the N7 warfare exclusive was announced. Yes it's ridiculously short notice.... but if the N7 warfare gear is exclusive to one or a couple of retailers they should have waited before the announcement and maybe postpone the uk launch a few days in order for these retailers to get their stuff together.

Right now they are all sold out. But as I posted above yours, keep an eye out for cancellations on shopto.net, zavvi.com, play.com, amazon.co.uk, blockbuster.com and gamestop.co.uk

Anyone who preorders the Collector's Edition from any of the new retailers should definitely get the N7 Warfare pack, as that was GAME's preorder bonus and that means there must be enough to go with each Collector's Edition box.

To be honest, in light of this debacle, everyone who preorders from any of the 4 new retailers should get the N7 Warfare pack. If EA turns around and arbitrarily distributes it to, say, Amazon only, that's just not cricket. All the CEs have already sold out; we're pre-ordering blind, here.

Why? Just why?

I pre-ordered from GAME and now I won't be getting the CE and the Warfare pack. I checked these other websites but now none of them have the CE anymore.

This is an absolute disgrace and an insult to gamers across the UK. Any hope of the dwindling chance that I would buy this game has now been utterly destroyed by this farce.

My initial heightened interest in Mass Effect 3 was greatly disturbed after the abysmal demo. All EA gives a **** about is squeezing every last penny out of you and running companies out of business as they are in this case. GAME and Gamestation must hold some of the blame, but EA also have a part to play, and it's a part they've played with a lack of caring for the best interests of the consumer.

British gamers, I implore you, boycott these bastards. Day One DLC and heightened prices are the least of your worries if they start running our specialist gaming stores out of business.


Well EA is a business....

This is why i am a Amazon customer for years. They have never let me down, so i trust them almost without any doubt. As a german customer you have my serious sympathy. Usualy we are the screwed gamers in europe and depend on UK retailers. Government institutions in germany are completely paranoid. I guess there is no country in the western world with so many exclusive cut, censored or even forbidden games and movies like us. 1 ****** tries to shoot someone at school, the police finds a PC with good old Counterstrike and us gamers get media bashed for weeks. Always the same talking about forbidding all games with any weapons and going down to crap like "The Sims" (even Worms 2 has been in the crosshair for possibly being "sadistic"). But as the worlds top producer of firearms they never touch the rights about owning weapons. Welcome to the german world of digital entertainment. But again: My sympathy for you guys in the UK :-(

This is nothing to do with Bioware.. EA distribute the product with the retailers.. Bioware unfortunately get some of the back lash as is customary.. Im sure this is 50\\50 to blame on Game\\EA, however I would like to see the war pack available to all...

I don't understand, has the game already sold out in such a short span of time?

How on earth is that possible?

All webs have been sold out for the last 3 hours, but the news only broke out 7 or 8 hours ago.

Can someone please in the UK confirm in this thread they've been able to pe-order ME3 collectors edition today Wednesday 29th of February through Amazon UK, for example?

Did you receive a confirmation email?

Thanks.

People managed to react pretty quickly. It's actually only in the last hour that Gamestop.co.uk and Blockbuster.com sold out, though they were added a bit later on.
