BioWare PreOrder Madness: It's Official And its Ugly



BioWare stepped up to the plate on the first major day of the San Diego Comic Con and hit a home run only to watch it come back .... sort of.

The big news that everyone knew ahead of time making it not so big but still epic in its own right was great.  BioWare showed its many different options to pre-order.  Everyone that ordered the CE or the Digital Deluxe would receive an early access code for well.... early access.  They even took the time to explain the differences.  If you had even more questions you could just hit their FAQ.

However and this is the ugly part for those paying attention.  From what we have learned those that ordered from Best Buy or Gamestop online have not received their codes.  If you made the decision to order from EA Origin or Amazon online then you where in the clear.  As of 7pm Central both EA Origin and Amazon appeared to be sold out of the CE.



While this is a great day for BioWare its a struggle for a small portion of their fans. Fans that paid $160 or more with the hope of playing the game 6 days early as promised.  Now they can either sit there and stare at an empty inbox or watch the lovely 'Choose' trailer posted for all to see:
