Aaagh!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Ok with that screaming out of the way. I preordered my Collector's edition the day it became available to preorder at my online retailer. Think it was over a year ago.
 
Now it's a week away for Europe relase.. And I get a mail from them saying;
 

We regretfully need to tell you that the Collector's Edition have been delayed to all retailers in the Nordic European Region for a week so it will not be available till February 4th. The regular version will be released on time so if you wish to change your order to regular edition, please let us know.

1. Buy the regular edition and sit on it till the Collector's release  and then sell that to Gamestop, losing perhaps 10 bucks or somthing.
2. Buy the regular edition and cancel Collector's
3. Just fucking wait another week.

Man up and wait a week man.

Sometime I just hate to 'man up'... ;(

dude ....tough choice ...erm

I'd just get the regular edition.

"Nordic European Region? Aren't you guys too busy drinking ale, singing about heroic tales and pillaging villages to play video games?"

Awww, man!!
Didn't need this right now. I'm so hyped about this game that i can't possibly wait one week extra. Maybe I'll just get the regular edition, but really want that comic though...

What countries does this affect? 
 
Whatever, I pre-ordered the regular edition

Yup, got the e-mail yesterday, and I ordered the regular edition. It's so ugly, BUT I HAVE GOT TO GET THIS GAME THE SECOND IT IS AVAILABLE. Seriously!

Those Fjuckers.

Well, this sucks krogan balls.

" @Venatio:  As far as I know it affects Norway, Denmark, Sweden and Finland, which are the countries that is considered 'Norden'. Well Iceland as well but I have no idea how things lie over there. *smirks*   And I'm still incredibly torn.. I mean it's already five days after the American release and I have to wait another week for the Collector's... It's heartbreaking. T.T "

So... basically Scandinavia. "

Duder thats fucked. If you hadnt hyped yourself up for the collectors edition it wouldnt be so bad. But once you got your mind set on these things a week suddenly becomes a LOOONG time.

 Norden and scandinavia is different... 
scandinavia is just Norway, sweden and Denmark. 
Norden includes some smaller nations, as well as Finland and iceland.

 Scandinavia is a region in northern Europe that includes Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Finland is often considered a Scandinavian country in common English usage, and Iceland and the Faroe Islands are sometimes also included.

Obviously didn't read the article, so I'll quote it.

"The larger region that some English-speaking nations refer to as "Scandinavia" is known by the countries concerned as Norden, or the Nordic countries " 

 

READ IT YOU TOO!

I hope this delay won't affect us here in Iceland, but I'm not holding my breath.
 
thankfully I have a pile of discount games that were cheap as fhuuuuu so If it's delayed I'll just play those (and of course try to avoid all dem spoilers).

I got the same email, preorderd from Webhallen. I'll just wait, i wont be home the weekend its supposed to come out anyways so it doesn't affect me too much. 
 
Imo vänta, I know you're aching to play it but it's not a game that you need to start playing on launch since it's not online! 
 
Cheers 

Preordered it at platekompaniet this monday, going regular if its delayed :/

Fucking bitch.. 

Anyways, so what will i lose by buying the regular one then?

@Depth 
Comic, tin case, artbook, bonus DVD and some ingame weapon & armor  i guess

I got the collectors edition because of the armor and weapon. The armor is freeking cool. 
I also think it's stupid for the game to be released on different times in different regions, I mean it's not hard to make a game retail on a certain day, just ship it out earlier.

" @swoxx: Not to mention the much prettier box art. :3 "
