    All very nice.

    However some discord and question are raised. For americans it seems you are restricted to certain stores, no problem.

    As soon as you pass a large body of water it stops. Again. Bioware is silent.

    I like to order the Bioware edition, but have no credit card. I strongly dislike the shipping, delays and risk in overseas ordering.

    All retail Dragon Age games come with two download content codes. The collection edition has a 3rd download content which can be purchased for $7.

    DAMNIT!!!

    I placed my order on Amazon last week, and they said it would be here tomorrow, and today I get an email saying that they're out of stock and my order had been canceled! :bang:

    Worse yet, the price has shot up $20 per copy from the "other" sellers amazon has listed... :flaming:

    I wanted to play that damn game now!

    Doh... sorry to hear about that, but yes, that usually happens with collector's editions. You're lucky if they don't get sold out shortly after the release already so if you want to be sure, you need to pre-order them.

    Or you buy em through steam, might not get a fancy box but you get all the content. Now if steam could just come to their senses and actually sell the games cheaper than the normal stores everything would be grand. Still cant see how they can charge as much for a digital license for a game as for the license and a cd, box, book, rent and wages. Digitally distributed media really should cost 30% less than the old way. No printing or distribution cost. Sick.

    If you pre-order or purcahse the SE digital download you are suppose to receive additional DLC codes for free items on top of the items that the standard SE comes with.
