BioWare won't produce any additional copies of the Mass Effect 3 N7 Collector's Edition prior to launch, meaning anyone wanting one better head over to GAME and pre-order it now.

After Amazon.com sold out of its pre-order allocation, fans looked to BioWare for help, hoping the studio would be able to manufacture additional units. Sadly, this can't happen.

"Sorry, there simply cannot be any more physical CEs made before launch," wrote BioWare community coordinator Chris Priestly.

"The items included in the physical edition cannot be made in time for launch. Sorry, it will not happen. This is why, back in November, I started warning people that the CE would run out."

The good news for UK gamers is that GAME is still taking pre-orders for the N7 edition, so get order now if you don't want to miss out.

Mass Effect 3 will be released March 9 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. The demo hits February 14 for those eligible or three days later for everyone else.

ME... h?
I've decided to delay purchase of this title anyway. Putting off the inevitable might help soften the blow of disappointment... the latter being a thing I've come to expect from Bioware.

Can it wait for a bit? I'm in the middle of some calibrations.

Heh, I actually cancelled my pre-order for this recently. Still haven't played ME2, or finished ME1, so it was just gonna sit on my shelf for five years before I trade it in unplayed anyways... SHOULD I reorder?

The three exclusive pieces of ingame content are the robot dog, Appearance Pack, and N7 Weapon Pack.

... not enough to justify the extra £30. Despite having a really nice cover in cmparison to the vanilla. But the money saved will buy another game!

Be interesting to see how much EA sell through this 'major European retailer', and whether their 'fears' were justified...

I think I pre-ordered this baby last November after seeing the CE trailer:

Pre-ordered this edition when it was first available on GAME. I know I am safe. =)

BOOM, just ordered mine earlier today. I went into a GAME store on Saturday and they told me that they had sold out completely. Managed to find it online though.
