I suppose if you can read japanese and are interested in the CE edition you could always get it from amazon.jp.... just saying.
The version listed on Amazon JP is the Asia version (so for Hong Kong etc. rather than Japan) and in English. However they don't always like shipping games overseas, so you may have to use a forwarding service like Tenso or Big In Japan to have it shipped to you (you don't need to use a full proxy - you can pay for the item yourself with a UK credit/debit card and have the forwarding service handle the shipping).
You can switch the Amazon JP interface to English for ease of use as well.

In short. They don't deserve to be paid for this mess. It's the kind of thing that justifies piracy as a moral stance.Teleraine wrote...
Goos *pat's on shoulder* the Digi would be better then nothing and why cut yourself outta a great game experience cos the suits are making it hard.
EA owes me an apology and a replacement. Am I gonna get it? Am I hell so why should they get my money? Especially through that abomination origin. Ugh I'm just too angry to be excited about the game any more

Just a reminder to folks.
If you want the CE edition for PC you can still order the Digital Deluxe edition from Origin which is the same as the CE and has all the DLC, warfare pack and the Origin exclusive Shotgun too.
The downside is thats its not a physical copy so the artbook and other extras are all digital too if your worried about that.
As you said..it's not physical...so please tell me...how exactly is it the same?
Might add...it's virtually the same price too, anyone wishes to be ripped off even further by EA...go ahead.
Well you can always print it out the digital stuff if you want it physical... lol but the point is in the DDE you get all the content so an extra £10 really if you consider from ashes dlc will take the standard edition to around £45. It seems i'm left with no option but to get the DDE since my pre order was canceled and i found out too late but there's one huge bonus to getting the digital game for people in the UK, you'll be able to pre load the game on Friday and once it's released in the USA you'll be able to unlock using VPN or a Proxy 3 days before the EU release.

Depends if it's region free or not....
As far as I know, there are no regions for PC games. Also if youre gonna go foreign, try an English-speaking are to get English, you know, stuff. I've been suggesting http://www.mightyape...ition/10768520/ for a while (with delivery total cost of £78 approx payable by PayPal/Bank Transfer). And also, if anyone's wonderin, I don't work for mightyape lol. I was just about to order from there before the awesome, awesome wormeater told me abt blockbuster having restocked. Once again, kudos to wormeater.

I considered picking up an additional SE ontop of my CE.... or shopping around for a CE with N7 pack.... but the per order exclusives will be up as 99p DLC in no time at all.... and i'm sure the CE exclusive weapons are better anyway.
Plus I got my CE for £55 on Amazon so
I ordered mine from Gamestop.ie before this all went down anyway. I also think that the N7 Warfare is most likely going to be available on whatever platform marketplace there is for not many points. I'm using saved reward points @ game to buy some MS Points myself.
And yes, I think the 4 weapons in the N7 Arsenal which is CE exclusive are problably more useful than the 1 weapon and armour which come with the pre-order. I'm just happy I'm getting my CE (and dog tags

Errrrrrmmmmmmm, if you pre-ordered from Shop.to you have the option to buy the "N7 Warfare Pack" for £9.85, really EA/whoever thoguht of this! I now have to pay £10 extra if I want to get something I was going to get for free 2 days ago because I didn't choose the right retailer to order from? VERY unimpressed whoever thought of this one, VERY unimpressed!
It's stuff like this that really doesn't do EA any favours when it comes to people thinking of them as money grabbing so and so's either, I rarely rage about anything but this is absolutely ridiculous!
Actually, you don't have the option to buy it for 9.85. It's just the way ShopTo's system handles pre-order bonuses. It will be added to your pre-order for no additional cost.
As I have stated about 6 times in the last 6 hours... <_<
Well this is a 98 page thread that I didn't want to have to read all the way through and I've never ordered from Shop.to before so how would I know that?
But now I know, that's cool, thank you! There really isn't any need to get snarky!
I am sorry pal - just that I've had to deal with my friends complaining about the same thing at college all morning so I was just kinda sick of it.
Sorry for being an **** and glad I could help
You're forgiven
Thanks again for letting me know, I can now let my rage die!

Anyone want to make any guesses as to whether Amazon will dispatch early with first class postage? fingers crossed they do, because GAME was planning on dispatching 2-3 days before the release date.
I ALWAYS used to get games 1-2 days early with GAME. Amazon usually gets it to you for release day.

I paid Amazon the first class postage for my copy of Skyrim and it didn't show up until the Monday.
I wasn't best pleased.

If you ordered from Amazon with first class P&P, it should hopefully arive on release day.tiger-tron wrote...

You can check your Estimated delivery date by going here, logging in and clicking the "View Order Details" link.
Under "Not Yet Dispatched" you should see something along the lines of: "Delivery estimate: 9 Mar 2012".
That or there's also the heading: "When will your items arrive?" which also contains something along the lines of "Not Yet Dispatched: 1 item - delivery estimate: 9 Mar 2012".

There are regions stll for the PC platform. My query about this was mostly based on the japanese amazon because the Japanese are always a little different when it comes to things like that... *Cough*Mother*Cough*

Same here, only found out about this about 15 minutes ago, been searching for somewhere else to pre-order the N7 Collector's for PC and so far I've had zero luck!Caeda wrote...
Damnit, I ordered my CE last year from Game, I've been at work since yesterday where I got the e-mail saying they are no longer going to stock it, I go to purchase another CE and everywhere is sold out of the PC CE.
I just wanted the art book to be honest, the digital copy really doesn't interest meEvery site I've checked appears to be out of stock on the PC version of the N7 Collector's Edition. Is there any chance at all now?
This really isn't good for GAME or EA/BioWare, why have they left it until just over a week before the release to make this announcement?
Umm ... I have a suggestion. It WILL, however, cost about £20 extra. You
can pre-order through mightyape (Google it) and pay through PayPal/Bank
Transfer. It's more expensive and kinda long but, well, you ARE trying
to get an EA product lol.
Seems this is just a total fiasco on the part of GAME (who didn't even bother to notify me that they'd cancelled my pre-order) and the fact that both GAME and EA have left it so late to make the announcement that GAME won't be stocking ME3 is just ridiculous!

Remember that CE owners will already be getting a wealth of DLC, including the N7 Arsenal pack which has N7 Versions of SMG, Shotgun, Sniper Rifle and Pistol, along with skins and physical paraphernalia. The Warfare Pack only has an additional suit of armour and assault rifle. I think we can wait to see if we'll get these or not, the poor peons who only ordered the SE are getting bugger all, so let EA make sure they have their trinkets first before looking at us.
It has nothing to do with that, people who are now pre ordering the N7 are mostly (if not all) people who have been shafted by game/gamestaion, so it would make sence to make these people the priority for the content they were expecting to get in the first place. I think it's great that people with the SE are getting some extras for free but the people that have been effected by the game/gamestaion debacle should be first in line.
Actually it has everything to do with this. Remember, GAME didn't only have the exclusivity for the N7 CE, it also had exclusivity to the pre-order bonus. More people will have pre-ordered the SE from game than Pre-ordered the CE from game, therefore my point stands. Technically you helped me make it, as there are more SE pre-orders who are shafted by game than N7. True, all 100% of the N7 Pre-orders are effected, but that doesn't mean there are more of us.
Also, bear in mind that I never said that N7CE shouldn't get it, I know that I want it myself and am waiting to find out if I shall, I just said that lets wait and see if EA only cater to SE people, or if they are merely catering to them before us.
Also, I'd like to point out that, as much as I am not the biggest fan of EA's methods, they are currently trying to correct a mistake that lies wholly at the feet of GAME. If GAME weren't certain that they'd be able to come up with the financial packing to get credit from EA, they should never have reserved exclusivity.
And I don't refute any of that, but as you said, people who are ordering N7 have most likely been effected so it would make sence to prioritise these customers first. Im not against people who ordered SE getting the DLC, quite the opposite infact but as I said they have there priorites backwards.
I'm not saying that though. I'm saying that although 100% of all N7 pre-orders are affected , if there are twice as many SE pre-orders which are affected then it makes sense to give them the priority as there are more of them. Sadly I don't know the numbers so I can't back it up, but I have a feeling that more SE people got shafted than N7 people.
We just got shafted harder.
Anyway, I know you're not saying they shouldn't get it, and I'm not saying that we shouldn't get it. I think we both agree that EA should just make it simple and give it to everyone.
It would make even more sence to prioritize people who started to pre order from 29/02/12, as it's a pretty safe bet these people were effected. It just irks me that I could be loosing out on somthing that I was set to have to people that clearly wern't bothered by it at all. But yeah, I do hope that it ends up with there being enough codes to go around for everyone.
I think the Issue is that the Pre-order we had was with Game/Gamestation not Ea so i dont think they are Honour bound to the Agreement you had with someone else. Ideally they would do as you said they would just give all long term Orders Priority but as it is they arnt doing that. So i think They should Give everyone the DLC and nobody Misses out on at least that bit.

With first class you'll generally get it the day after shipping.
