Hmm has anyone else noticed that the Mass Effect 3 N7 Collectors Edition for the 360 has disappeared from the Game/Gamestation websites?

They stopped doing pre-orders for it last week, day after I paid my deposit. AFAIK because of high demand.

I'd still consider it a collectors edition,in fact any game thats not the bog standard retail version.

Its a lovely edition that zombrex one,the pen is a lovely touch. I sent my 1st copy back due to it arriving dented,my 2nd copy was in perfect condition.

Perfect condition until i somehow managed to jam it a drawer,slightly gimping the plastic coating and pen box.

Copy no 3 will be getting ordered soon.

On a happier note i finally found Rayman Origins CE at a decent price(29.99 fae Play.com) and promptly ordered it. Amazon have it at the same price if anybody fancies it.

Nice one :) . I gave up looking in the end and shelled out £50 for a brand-new copy on ebay :cry: . I try not to buy LE's for everything (just my favourite games) but the Yakuza series is one that I adore so I had to have it! At least it has the free DLC redemption codes I suppose...

Can't say I ever saw this one in the wild when the game was released to be honest.

I was tempted to preorder this one because of the art book, but it's disappointing that it's only 70 pages compared to the MGS one which is 250 pages.

Bugger!! That's lovely another one added to the list!

Thanks to Morkin's eagle eyes I secured a preorder of Mass Effect 3 N7 Collectors Edition (360).

I also preordered this:

I was interested in this because it apparently comes with the full DOA5 demo (4 characters instead of 2) but I think I'll just wait for the full game. I'm not a big enough NG fan to justify another huge box for the sake of a demo even though I think the games are really cool.

i ordered the MGS box - i'm a bit concerned about the size of it now i've seen the unboxing. Do these things have to be so big! Looks pretty cool though...

I picked up a brand new copy of Driver LE from Game for £22. Bargain!

Rodarkone: Did the Fear3 LE you have come out in the UK or is it an import? That was one fantastically creepy package!
