This is so unfair to your customers and I believe this could have been handled a lot better by you guys. A simple solution for the Game and GameStation customers would have been to send copies of their pre-orders so it is still guaranteed for them. This could have been done through Origin.
Now I still have to go and probably ebay it from somewhere for more than double the amount. I'm sure none of your dev team might read this, and people might say I'm moaning, I don't care. It's very disappointing.
Anyways what's done is done. But my faith in this industry is starting to fade. As something as simple as this cannot be handled properly.
Good day.

Anyway... In the end, EA is going to look like the saviour of this debacle because all the in-game content is available on Origin's Digital Deluxe Edition. I suspect that's the content a lot of potential PC CE buyers are after anyway, And some of those who'd prefer to get a boxed copy but no longer have much of a choice will be swayed towards the Origin offering.
I still feel like a bit of a shmuck by not jumping on this before it was too late. It'll be interesting to see what EA says about the N7 Warfare packs tomorrow considering they'll be totally sold out by then.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. They didn't release the Terminus gear for ME2.Teleraine wrote...

so amazon is handing away M-55 argus rifles and im just wondering if its just the rifle or do we get the armour like we would if we had still had the pre-orders from game?
I thought that was standard for all pre-orders?

As I pre-ordered the PC version of ME3 N7 CE from Gamestation:BearBoy wrote...
Just a quick question for some: those who pre-ordered from Gamestation or Gameplay (which are subsidiaries of Game in case you were unaware): have you received a cancellation email?
I've pre-ordered with Gameplay. However, I have not received a cancellation email and the status of my order on the website is still 'Ordered'. I don't expect to be getting the game from them now, but this is a little curious still. As the Gameplay website will be vanishing tomorrow (to be subsumed by Gamestation), I was wondering how the Gamestation site has handled these 'cancellations'.
At around 3PM today I had an email from them titled "Gamestation: Important Information About Your Mass Effect 3 Pre-Order!"
Since then my order has indeed been canceled. I did not get an additional email about the pre-order being cancelled, if that's what you were asking?Gamestation.co.uk wrote...
Thank you for pre-ordering Mass Effect 3 from Gamestation.co.uk
We're contacting you with news that, unfortunately we are not in a position to supply you with your copy of Mass Effect 3. As dedicated gamers, we know how disappointing this will be for you, and we apologise sincerely for the inconvenience that this will cause.
Your order XXXXXXXXX will be cancelled and no money will be taken from your account for this item.
We value you as a customer very highly and want to demonstrate that to you by giving you a voucher code worth £5 off your next purchase at Gamestation.co.uk
Your voucher code is XXXXXXXX
We are very sorry for any disappointment and inconvenience this may have caused.
For more information about Mass Effect 3 please visit www.Gamestation.co.uk/masseffect
Personally I redeemed the £5 voucher plus all my Gamestation points and got myself 800 MS Points for a few pence. I will not ever be using them (or Game) to pre-order a game from again.
Hope this helps.

I'm so annoyed and sad. Having anticipated this game for so long only for this to happen now. I pre-ordered the N7 edition on the Xbox 360 and also did the special £5 pre order. And now I read about this news late and can't even find a single collectors edition anywhere, all sold out.

And maybe this will teach publishers NOT to give GAME Group any exclusives again, ever!

The likely impending failure of Game as a retail outlet is merely symptomatic of what is occurring in the retail sector in general. A great many retail stores have collapsed in the past year and many more will follow this year as the UK economy continues to contract and stutter. I live near several 'shopping malls' and the daily and weekly traffic to these has flatlined hugely since the end of the post-christmas sales period. Online retailers may be part of this problem but don't discount the imbeciles in Whitehall, for as long as they remain in government, the economy will remain depressed (to say nothing of the population) and unemployment figures rise.

"The Ashes". The rest of the CE DLC is exclusive.nonlethalbizzle wrote...
Does anyone know how much of the dlc included in CE will become available for everyone to download after after launch.
By the CE exclusive DLC I mean: The Squad Appearance pack, Robotic Dog, N7 SMG, N7 Shotgun, N7 Sniper Rifle, N7 Pistol - none of this will be available to you if you get the standard edition.
