Dirt 3 has a $300 CE Bundle

April 7th, 2011 Michael Pica

Gamestop USA recently added Dirt 3 to their pre-order list. The Xbox 360 and PS3 also have a “Ken Block Gymkahana RC Car” bundle version of the release. The real shocker is that it’s listed to cost a whopping $300 for the bundle.

Currently a company called Traxxas makes a Ken Block Fiesta RC car. This is a high quality car made for RC Car enthusiasts, and it retails for just under $300. So Here’s hoping that the car in the GameStop Bundle is the Traxxas model… either that or it’s a typo.

Either way Dirt 3 is due out on May 24th so we wont have long to wait to find out.

Crysis 2 Nano Edition Delayed

March 22nd, 2011 Michael Pica

I wasn’t surprised when I saw an email from EA in my inbox this morning, Crysis 2 was due to ship today and I ordered the Nano Edition from the online store. Unfortunately I discovered that rather than a shipping confirmation it was a notification that the game had been delayed due to manufacturing issues.

Thank you for purchasing the Crysis 2 Nano Edition.  Unfortunately, manufacturing issues have caused a delay in delivery on this item.  We do expect your copy of the Crysis 2 Nano Edition to ship soon, and will notify you once it has shipped.

We understand the impact this has on you, and to help compensate for the inconvenience we are providing you with a coupon good for 75% off your next purchase* at the EA STORE (http://eastore.ea.com): *********

Thank you for your patience.  If you have any questions, you can contact our Customer Service department at http://support.ea.com.

*Coupon expires May 31, 2011. Discount is valid on one copy of one product from the EA STORE at www.eastore.ea.com only.  Value of discount will be deducted from product list price at time of purchase. Valid only in U.S.  and Canada.  Cannot be combined with any other offer, Gift Card, rebate or other discount coupons. Limit one offer per person. Subject to availability. Customers are responsible for shipping, handling and applicable sales tax. Offer may not be substituted, exchanged, sold or redeemed for cash or other goods or services. Void where prohibited, taxed or restricted by law.

No word yet as to how long the delay is, though I would suspect it would be short considering they waited until the 11th hour to let people know (which I assume means they thought they might make it in time). Either way the offered 75% off  from the EA store is a HUGE discount which, at least in my opinion, makes a good mea culpa.
