Heads up for anyone in the UK who predordered ME3!
« on: February 29, 2012, 08:45:03 AM »
Sorry for posting twice in one day in OT but I found this out and thought I'd pass it on for any UK gamers.

If you've preordered ME3 at Game or Gamestation of any edition they are no longer supplying the game. They will not fill pre-orders and you will not be able to buy the game from the shelf. EA will not supply the game to these stores.

From what I read of the article, basically the store doesn't have the ability to pay for the pre-orders, so distribution will be cancelled.  That's really too bad for those who want to support that game store.  :( 
I've heard a lot of good things about Mass Effect but I haven't seen or played the game myself.  My husband was talking about it the other day, so maybe I'll get to!  :)

Yeah bascially that's it.
You can still get it from quite a few retaillers. It's just annoying though as this is a week before release so of course now of course everyone is trying to find a new retailer to get the game for especially if they wanted a special edition.
You should try it out if you get a chance though, it is a great game. :D

THIS
IS THE
WORST
POSSIBLE
THING!!
what? why is everyone looking at me like that?

and there where times I thought Hasbro was bad....but seems EA is getting too big an ego for this.
Might be beacuse of finaces or might be beacuse of marketing, you know denie and the want gets HIGHER!
Still peeved I wont be getting my collectores edtion, oh well selvae
