Bethesda, are you watching? THIS is how you do a Collector's Edition. That video just persuaded me to get it.
Same! But I did want the giant dragon statue. :p

EDIT: Does anyone know who will sell this in the UK?

just cause im a total fanboy of this franchise, i'll mostly likely buy this. Assuming they have a PC version <.<
They do, the article even said so. ;) Gamestop would probably have the CE for PC if you have a Gamestop near you.

OT: I've already got the CE pre-ordered.

They do. I have both the x-box 360 and PC collector's editions pre-ordered. I am thinking about getting red of my x-box 360 though so I will pry have to cancel my 360 pre-order. I can't wait for Mass Effect 3. Hopefully Skyrim and The Old Republic will hold me over till then.

What?! Liara is a bonus character?
I thought she would be back as a normal character.
I am disappointed =(
Oh, they wouldn't tease people like that. You missed the part about it being alternate armor for her, not her as a character (she's already been confirmed as a normal companion).

Gamestation, Game and Gameplay. All a rip-off. £69.99 for PS3 & Xbox 360 and a passable £59.99 for PC... in Gamestation or it's £69.99 as well on the other sites : S

No It looks like she is a normal character, she just has an alternative costume in the collectors edition. As for the bonus character...it would be nice to have my favourite thief back in the team...

I recently got a 10 dollar off coupon from Amazon (you gotta love the people at amazon. Over 25 bucks? Here's free shipping! Oh you bought a book? Well here's a free coupon for an mp3. Wow you've been a long time customer so here's 10 dollars off just about anything sold by us just because we like you) and so I cancelled my regular edition of ME3 for the collector's at 70 bucks. I thought I couldn't get a better deal that than. It'll be the first time I've loved a game enough to spend money on a collector's edition. This is gonna rock!

I still don't know if I want the collectors edition or just the standard edition. Most of the stuff in here doesn't really interest me. The one thing that could convince me to go for the collectors edition is the additional character and mission mentioned at the end, but Bioware doesn't seem to want to say anything about that.

Bonus character?! BEGIN WILD MASS GUESSING!
Sorry, BSN has been guessing since E3 (back when the bonus mission name was leaked as ''The Prothean'') so the fanbase has came up with 3 options:
1. A Prothean expert: probably on Mars(this game's Freedom's Progress) but is probably unlikely because Liara's already confirmed.
2. A Collector: A survivor of the ME2 finale(maybe away from the Galactic core at the time) that might actually be on your side now that the Collector General is gone, maybe not though, considering due to excessive cloning, a Collector's lifespan is only 2-3 days.
3: A prothean: This is the most popular because and the end of ME1 we never found out what happened to the Protheans after they built the Conduit, so a theory is that they moved some of they're life-support pods onto the Citadel, hooked it up the the Citadels environmental systems and have been in stasis ever since.

Agreed, though doubtful since she was a DLC character. If, however, she makes a comeback...

1) Liara has the role of 'Prothean expert' covered, even if she changed her job a couple of times since ME1.
2) I don't think this will happen. The Collectors were Shepard's enemies in ME2; even if they could communicate without Harbinger's influence, Shepard would shoot them on sight. I would use a certain squad member as an example of this, but it was captured instead of being destroyed because people know so little about the race.
3) After the Reaper invasion, the Protheans' total numbers were reduced to a dozen or so, stranded on Ilos. Vigil never said anything about them using the Conduit to reach the Citadel; the only influence they made on the station was to re-program the keepers before they died of starvation.

Uh, they did use the Conduit to get to the Citadel. That's how they got there to re-program the Keepers before they died.

Definitely, I was going to get it when I saw it was $79.99, but then I saw how much it cost in the UK and thought "Fuck that." and pre-orded the standard edition instead.

I'm pretty sure is the first look at Commander Shepard's silly little robot dog.
Awww, it's cute!

Can it call me Mistress like K-9? Please?

For that matter, can I name him K-9? Pretty please?

They announced this back around...June? Yeah, I preordered it then. So what if I'm a fanboy?
Yeah, me too. And why is this news all of a sudden? I've known ALL these details back then... Even the mystery char. I'm also pretty sure i know what it is. Back when it was first announced, one of the perks was a 'Prothean', of some sort. It was quickly taken down off the gamestop perk list, but it was there. So that's prolly what it is. If i had to guess.

This may have been said already, but you do realize the chick on the back of the box is Female Shepard, right? I don't intend to be mean about this, but the text in the video right next to that photo tells you who it is, and The Escapist ran stories a while back about fans voting for what FemShep should like like via Facebook.

Again, not trying to troll or anything, but this is an error that should maybe be fixed.
