I've been overcharged at Zavvi, hoping they sort that out soon :/ xx

EB Games AUS represent, still got them in-stock online. Ninja Gaiden doesn't have a big following here, though I hear NG3 is no longer "hardcore" and has been toned down in difficulty to cater for more "casual" gamers and the use of the Move peripheral

365Games still has the Xbxo360 version;

here is the response to the email I sent to tescos:

Thank you for your e-mail enquiring about the 2 different listings for Ninja Gaiden 3 game.

Having checked this with my Business Support Team, who have advised that the version listed at £64.97 is the Collectors Edition and the one priced at £43.97 is the Standard Edition version.

I hope this information is of help to you, and I would like to thank you for taking the time to ask me about this.

Take care and enjoy the rest of your day.

Kind regards

Ive got mine on order with Amazon as they appeared to be the cheapest, £62.17.

A bit off topic but i ordered Kingdom Hearts for 3DS from Amazon today for £24.99 just as it appeared as a bit of a bargain. Its not a CE or anything but maybe something will be annouiced nearer the time of release.

I think the NG series has always had the same trend of releasing limited quantities of their CE/LE. Once they're gone you won't find new stocks at the retail stores or online stores.
Though I don't think the reviews will really affect CE collectors as it's the quality of the CE that essentially determines the choices we make, and in saying that, they could've included a steelbook to sweeten the CE

Is the following higher in Europe than North America?

Why is only the Euro version limited in number compared to them?

In Canada, the CE is only available thru EBgames online. With the mixed review, I am not surprise the CE is not sold out. I will wait until price drop.

I agree with them... in a way. I've played through the game for a while now and yes, it is pretty bad. You get trapped in an area, you beat hordes of weak enemies and you exit the area. The camera doesn't help either with all the zooming in on all the brutal kills doing more harm than good.

For a Ninja Gaiden game, it's terrible. But for an action game, it's mediocre at best. But to say that it's one of the worst action games ever (or according to IGN, a 4.0/10), is just stupid.

I'm extremely disappointed though. This used to be the game that makes you want to throw your controller at the TV. Now, it seems to have lost its identity.
