Default Re: Gears of War 3 Epic Edition & Limited Edition possibly canceled in parts of Europ

Austria will get the Epic Edition, it is just gamestop.at-exclusive; you can preorder it at the local stores (since this week iirc) - the Xbox AT-team has confirmed this on their official facebook-site.

The Ltd. and the Epic Edt. won't be released in Germany and the Benelux, but (e.g.) in France. In France it is game.fr-excl. (http://www.game.fr/Product/Default.aspx?SKU=102475); a shop, that doesn't send anything to locations outside French territory... buuut this is, where I'll get my copy from. I live in Germany, but the relatives of a friend's girlfriend live in France and will send me a copy (I hope the DLC will still work).

Actually I've never had such trouble ordering a Collector's Edition before, a real torture... this shop-exkl. deals (e.g. pre-order DLCs, editions, gimmicks) are one of the most terrible developments in the industry today...
......... not to mention the general problems of DLCs, online/MP passes, DRM etc..
