Awesome that I still have my $20 coupon for pre-ordering Gears 3 way back when. Looks like amazon still has CE's in stock so if you don't want to wait for Walmart I'd say get them while you can. ;)


I would've done this but even with 1 day shipping the arrival date would've been March 9th. I'd hope I'd have my Walmart CE by then. Anyone find out any new information?

Nope, just called customer service and it was like talking to a damn robot. They knew nothing.

I just ordered off Amazon and will be getting it Thursday.

I just called them. It's on a vendor hold for me. They've already charged me the full amount, so I will just have to see how it goes.

I'm glad I thought to check this thread again... Would've been nice of Walmart to send out an email saying delivery was delayed. I'm on hold waiting on a rep right now to double check when they'll actually be sending it before I cancel my order. If they haven't even gotten it in I'll get it somewhere else. I'll give up the collector's edition preorder I've had since January just to take my business elsewhere. They can't be bothered to inform their customers of problems with preorders, I can't be bothered to give them my money. If they say anything different than what they've told others, I'll update my post but I'm not holding out much hope at this point.

Edit: I was told the same thing. The vendor put it on hold and there's nothing they can do nor do they know when they'll get it in. Cancelled my pre-order and ordered it from Amazon instead. At least they're up front that I won't get it till the 9th.

Same with me. I'm thinking they're waiting until they get more copies, but as we both know this is impossible. No more copies are being made. That's why I cancelled and went with Amazon.

Word is that EA pulled all CE stock from Wal-Mart, no stores got any CE

Yep just got off the phone and apparently they got discontinued so nobody who ordered from Walmart will get them. Thanks a bunch for letting me know ahead of time Walmart.

I've been surfing around and found out rumors about the CE getting pulled back and people getting their CE orders cancelled
I guess the retailers are off the hook
EA you're in the hot seat now


I talked to a Walmart rep and she says that I will get the item as early as Thursday or as late as Next Monday
i hope i get it this week so i could play it on the weekend

If EA did pull all the CE from Walmart then that's really messed up. They aren't making a statement against Walmart they are screwing the fans over because I have tried to make a deal with the Devil aka Gamestop and they are all out. This will be the last EA product I purchase from them ever!

Really hope this isn't true. Especially when I had the chance to get the ce from gamestop.com last night. But instead I was relying on the arrive on march 6th date from walmart. Mistake

This is certainly irritating. I am in the same predicament OP and will never shop at Walmart again, and if this bull about EA pulling the Collector's Edition from stock is true then I will no longer buy EA products (Mass Effect 3 included) and will be sure to tell everyone how much EA cares about their customers

A little clarity would be nice, since I have yet to find the game anywhere online and don't have a car to drive around hunting for one. *sigh* ****ing hate Walmart and EA. F U guys last product to purchase ever from you guys.
*EDIT* I cancelled one my Walmart order and found one for a cheaper price on Amazon fro xbox. Thank you sweet lord baby jesus never pre-ordering from walmart and never buying another EA game again.

I would be happy to settle for the regular edition and surely ea can send me codes for all the dlc. That is an easy solution for me.

I just got off the phone with Walmart and was told the same thing as yesterday. She said that the expected ship date for the CE will be on the 8th and that they have been receiving many calls about this. She said nothing about it being cancelled or about them not receiving any. I also got an email this morning that said: "We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Due to the distributor receiving the merchandise late, the games will arrive late. The games should be received by the distributor on the release date, March 6, and should ship within one business day. In addition, a $10 eGift card has been processed to the customers. Bonus codes will be emailed the week of March 12, 2012." So hopefully this means they will really be coming. I won't be cancelling my order, especially since the CE is so hard to find. Might as well wait it out.

Thanks finch. I'm going to wait it out also since it's the CE. One week of waiting won't hurt me.

Well good luck to all you guys that got shafted like me. I got feed up with this whole process from walmart/EA. Went out and got the regular edition and canceled walmart order. They will never see another dime from me again and If i hadn't been waiting for this game since 2007 I wouldn't have even brought it due to this stunt EA pulled. Last game I buy from EA for a long while.(sorry Bioware)

I also have the same problem. I pre ordered from walmart since gamestop ran out of CE. If this item hold is true I am saddened that this has happened to me again. This exact thing happened when I pre ordered the inFAMOUS 2 CE. I only got it from walmart because my mom works there. I will never buy a game from walmart again. Hopefully I will get the game soon.

Well, I got a hold of WalMart.com customer service at work today. Getting around the robo menus and actually getting in touch with a live person is a pain in the ass when calling WalMart. The customer service lady told me the item was "Put on hold" from "The vendor" and would not be delivered as was "guaranteed". She said "It's not our fault." I asked her how it wasn't her fault and she just kept saying "It was put on hold by the vendor." I asked her how every other retail outlet has managed to offer a delivery day guarantee and actually deliver it on the day promised and she said nothing. I also asked how it was a "Guarantee," she said their guarantee is "It's guaranteed to show up on the date specified, or  you are entitled to a 10 dollar WalMart gift certificate." I asked her when it would show up at my house - she said "Possibly by the end of the week, but probably not until next week." She then said she had no idea when it would actually ship, the only definite thing she could tell me was that it will not ship today and that the item is currently "On hold from the vendor." I told her to cancel my order immediately, she said it wasn't possible because it was in the warehouse and was in "processing." I told her to transfer me to a supervisor and after about 10 seconds of yelling my order was miraculously able to be cancelled.

During my lunch I drove to Gamestop and bought the regular 360 edition WITH the codes for the preorder stuff. The only difference between that edition and the CE is the superfluous physical stuff that comes with the CE (that I never really cared about to begin with, I only wanted the bonus in-game content.)

To those that pre-ordered from WalMart you won't get it today. You won't even get it tomorrow.... you probably won't even get it this week. You're better off cancelling and driving to GS and picking up a regular copy (and paying a little extra for the codes with it, ask about it at the counter.) 

I'll never order from WalMart again.

I assume it's both, at least the girl at the counter seemed to think so. The receipt itself is literally about 3 pages long and the information is on the recepit. On the receipt there is a section that says"  *Activation Code* Mass Effect 3 FromAshes XB3 DL " and then its code and another separate section on the receipt that says "Your code to unlock the N7 Armor, N7 Valkyrie Rifle and the M55 Argus Assault Rifle is" and then it lists that code. It mioght not have the dog and extra shirts or whatever (haven't used the two codes yet to find out) but honestly at this point I don't mind, as long as I have the game and some bonus in-game content. It's better than nothing (which is what I would have had I kept the Wal Mart order.)

I checked my order just now, and the cancel button for it is gone. I take that as a good sign.
