Looks like you live in a pretty populated area so you should definitely keep close tabs on it. The town in which I'm picking up DIII has a population of like 8 thousand or something like that and the dude at Gamestop told me to be there at 11:30 for the midnight release. If you live in the middle of Toronto you might be camping out a couple days if you are serious about it.

I don't think its going to be that crazy, lots of stores are gonna carry the game. Double check with your store, they will know approximately based on previous big title launches. MY EB is doing pre ringing (processing payments) before midnight so they can just handout the games at midnight.

So my brother and I just found out our CE orders got cancelled.

Gohastings.com is cancelling all pre orders because they took way too many.

I am beyond pissed.


They didn't even send an email, just checked my order status and noticed it. Made a phone call and was told everyone was getting cancelled.

Wow, that's pretty terrible of them. Sorry to hear that.

I dont think this CE is going to be as rare as many of you seem to think. This happens with ALL games that have a collectors/special/tournament/whatever edition. People get caught up in the hype, scramble to pre-order thinking they'll all sell-out, then two months later, you can buy them clearanced out from Best Buy for like $40. Not saying this will drop that much, but I doubt it will be such a hot commodity that you will never ever ever be able to find one again if you didnt pre-order.

I learned my lesson with the Mortal Kombat tournament edition. I bought two of them for $200 a piece (they were supposedly limited to something like 2500 for PS3 and 2500 for Xbox). Planned on opening one and selling the other. They were sold out EVERYWHERE prior to release. Then, the game came out and a month later they were readily available to anyone that wanted one (and in most cases, at a discount since stores didnt want them clogging their shelves). You know what wound up happening to my second TE, its sitting in the front hallway under the bench still in the shipping box. $200 down the toilet.

The D3 CE looks alright, but I just went ahead and bought the regular edition from BNet. If I can find a copy of the CE a month or two from now, awesome, if not, no biggie.

You can find one if you want it bad enough but you're going to pay a premium for it. I'm just glad I went to my local Gamestop and pre-ordered by CE like 5 months ago or w/e it was.

I'm in the same boat. Not really to worried about it, although I'd like the wings and dyes, the rest of the crap is well.... crap imo... so $40 for some pixels is a bit steep.

Some people are having issues with gamestop as well and this guy says he pre-ordered last year October.

Edit: Or maybe his method of payment flopped though he says it didn't. /shrug

I'm abit concerned.

It's Thursday...I ordered from Amazon. They said release day delivery.

It cost me 99 cents.

However, as of right now, there is no prepping phase going on. I can't believe they'd offer over-night or something for only 99 cents. I surely thought they'd opt to do like SuperSaver shipping and just ship it a week before release and have it there on time.

Worried it wont arrive Tuesday, or they'll pull a Gamestop and cancel it on me at the last moment.
