Syndicate pre-orders cancelled, 20% discount coupons delivered

Origin has begun cancelling all Syndicate pre-orders by Australians, due to it being banned in Australia. Sharing the sentiment of EA in their official response to the refusal of classification, the e-mail from Origin states "We’re sorry to inform you that we’ve received notice of the Australian Government’s decision to not give a rating for our upcoming game Syndicate, which means EA isn’t allowed to publish and sell this game in the country."

As a token of "goodwill" they've also included a coupon to score yourself 20% off of your next purchase on Origin. Unfortunately, it can't be combined with the already 30%-60% off titles that have been discounted for their Holiday Deals.
