One question btw...

If i start the game up. Do you have to login to your EA games account if you redeem your Cebeurs Network code?? If so, I will just use my new gamertag and i log in to the EA account i used here.

Oh well, I am going to sleep now. I hope we have more information concerning the delay tomorrow!

Let's hope Game Mania gets the collector's edition tomorrow, then. If not, I'm picking up the standard edition.

I wouldn't count on us having any new information tomorrow, but you can hope.

As a side note, you can get your Mass Effect 2 CE Owners group signature from the group discussion now (preview below).

Just got word from a friend that ordered his CE at Bol.com that het received an e-mail which stated that they (Bol.com) would receive the CE today (it's only 8pm at the moment) and they they would send it tomorrow.

Let's hope that they actually receive it and that it is also the case at other shops.


Well, I really hope so. And if they do, you will read it on xbw Image IPB .

Off-topic, but I think I'll go tomorrow (27) to my games shop to see if I'm lucky and they're already selling the game ^^ Everybody wish me luck!

Well I cancelled my CE and ordered a standard edition. One thing still puzzles me though. Why do the the standard game get released in the Nordic (Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway) countries on Jan 28 while rest of Europe gets it on Jan 29?

I know it is just a single day, but it is still strange. Guess there is some bonuses of localization.

Well, no answer today either. We are sure making this look good though... 27 pages, +650 posts. It's now blatantly obvious that we're being ignored on purpose, most likely due to a gag order from EA or similar situation.

The release date for Europe was originally Jan. 29th, but I guess they don't really care, seeing as the release date seems to vary by the country.

Because in some countries the release dates are always on thursdays.  Thursday this week is the 28th.
That's just the way it is.  The logic behind it was explained by someone else earlier in the thread.

This issue is driving me crazy. Even though I do want to get my CE and will wait for it, I can't believe they're feeling okay just ignoring us like we were unworthy customers. All we did wrong was like ME too much.

Ah ok then. Well I'm actually not the one that should be complaning since i live in one of said countries :)

Anyways i hope for all of you who are staying faithful to the CE will get this mess sorted out as soon as possible.

Yeah, there isn't much we can do now. I feel like I'm suffering for my honesty once again - pirates are already playing the game, have been for a good while if you were reading the forums last weekend. But since I refuse to pirate anything at all, I get treated like a block of wood that doesn't need to know anything.

Well, my regular edition is sitting as "packing" on play.com, so we'll see how long it takes to get to Belgium. My collector's order is sitting as processing (in store pick up), but I know FRS get stock on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I'm expecting to get a call Thursday still.

The most frustrating thing about all this is EA/Bioware's reluctance to release any official explanation/apology. Bunch of cowards.

Yeah i hear you. It's extremely silly that these things (artbook, comic?) aren't fixed well behind launch. Especially if one is a loyal Bioware fan like you and have both DA:O CE and ME2 CE. Silly EA..

This is my first time preordering a game. Does the shop rings you when they get copies in like before the release day or they ring you on release day to just remind you pick up your copy?

They are supposed to call you when they have it ready for pick up, as soon as they start handing them out.

Yep. In addition to Dragon Age: Origins and my Mass Effect 2 pre-order I've also got:
  • Baldur's Gate
  • Baldur's Gate: Tales of the Sword Coast
  • Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn
  • Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal
  • Neverwinter Nights
  • Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide
  • Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark
  • Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
  • Jade Empire
  • Mass Effect 1
So it's not exactly the first time I've bought their games either. You'd think they'd treat their fans a bit better when it comes to things like this, but the silence is probably by EA's command, so I don't blame BioWare if that's the case.

This just in: the standard edition of Mass Effect 2 has already been put on sale publicly in several places here in Finland earlier today. So much for the official street date.

Same over here. I can't help but feel a little screwed over.

Can't say about Denmark, but a while back I was told at a Gamestop shop that they expect to launch sale in 28th, so if I wanted a CE, I had to get there fast, for, as I was told, "you can't preorder a CE, they're like first come, first served basis"...Thought that was funny...Still, when the rumours about the delay started, I ultimitaley preordered from Game.co.uk...I wanted to avoid localization, and It was a lot cheaper too, waaay cheaper :)

THIS JUST IN:

My vendor (4evergames.nl) seems to be struck with a shortage from their distributor.

I am officially without a Collector's Edition now.
