I can grab a new copy of Super Mario Galaxy 2 for 7 days and bring it back for store credit? Awesome.

 

[Kazerei]

Ahh, GameStop. The only reason I still shop there is to take advantage of their deals.

 

[Onion_Relish]

but i take it you cant return for full store credit something youve been playing for a couple months now
i would really love to get full store credit for la noire and make money on it

Obviously not. It's buy it now, and return in 7 days.

 

[Maddog]

Do it with Portal 2 for PS3 and get Free Steam copy.

 

[vulva]

anyone know if there are any coupons for an m11x or alienware product on dell's website? I'm looking at those badass US prices and wish I could get in on them. I've been using an m11x while on vacation for the past two weeks and really love it. Hoping I can get one at a more reasonable price than 1k.

Thanks for anyone in the know. I love you.

Pilotwings and Nintendogs are $10.97 at Costco

Oh Costco, you so crazy

 

[Ondore]

So what are the odds that a random Costco's going to have 3DSs in stock on say, Saturday?

I was at my local Costco today and they didn't even seem to be carrying any 3DS's in the gaming section. Maybe they were sold out, but they've always had plenty every other time I've been there.

 

[AAK]

HUGE DEAL:

Ridiculous... too good to be true. Will be gaming this month!

 

[survivor]

How long is LA Noire? I'm considering the deal just for this game.

From the other thread:
http://www.howlongtobeat.com/gamebreakdown.php?gamename=L.A.%20NoireCrowdsoruce average: 15h? Sounds about right.

 

[Keyouta]

Is there any service for game rentals in Canada as these is gamefly for the US. If so, is it worth trying out?

Boring...don't bother

I have been using GameAccess.ca for a couple years now and have nothing but good things to say about them. Excellent service!

 

[Neki]

HUGE DEAL:

Gamestop is doing a "Why Rent" promo for the month: Return the game in 7 days for full store credit:

I wonder if I can return my DW3 that I bought at launch for store credit, lol.

I'm thinking of LA Noire, that looks really good.

 

[C-Jo]

I have been using GameAccess.ca for a couple years now and have nothing but good things to say about them. Excellent service!

I used GameAccess for about three months and I thought it was a terrible, money wasting service. I spent literally half of every month waiting for games to be shipped one way or the other. When I actually got a game, it was like the 8th game on my list, and not something I wanted to play all that badly anyway.

Living in Vancouver + shipping to and from Quebec + Canada Post sucking balls = useless to me.

 

[radiantdreamer]

I wouldn't return the Amazon one. I'm sure you'll find someone who'll kill for it in Vancouver. Make someone happy and sell it to them at cost (or for a tidy profit)!

Damn too late!! D:
I didn't think of that.

I did a search on vancouver craigslist, and most people are asking for below cost, so nevermind. At least ask for cover costs. :\

 

[Max]

Does anyone here have any experience with http://gamebot.ca/ ? Looks to be a pretty organized website

I'm looking for a cheap ODST

Hmm, never heard of them. It's a little weird how they don't explicitly say if it's a used or new price until you click on the game. ODST is $20 at VGP, by the way. Not sure if you were looking for cheaper. http://www.videogamesplus.ca/product_info.php?products_id=15807

 

[lupinko]

It depends. If its Canada Post the answer is yes but in some regions FedEx and UPS only take Credit Cards.

FedEx accepts CC, Cheques and Cash, don't know for UPS.

Oh wow that's great thanks for the link

You could try www.dvdlink.ca I've been using them for just movies for a while now and they're pretty good, haven't dabbled into the game side. At first glance they're significantly cheaper than GameAccess.

Ok CanadaGAF. We need a shirt on the NeoGAF store pronto!

 

[ShaneB]

Ok CanadaGAF. We need a shirt on the NeoGAF store pronto!

I had an idea, but not exactly a photoshop pro, so couldn't really spit it out.

Basically the canadian flag in NeoGAF colours, with the GAF logo inside the maple leaf. Nothing fancy, just how I like it. Or not even the flag, just a Maple Leaf with the GAF logo inside it.

 

[Stumpokapow]

Ok CanadaGAF. We need a shirt on the NeoGAF store pronto!

I can get behind this idea.

 

[RaySpencer]

I think we should make something subtle and classy, Ive got no ideas right now, but I will think on it, we can pool ideas, maybe even make a few.


Damn Pony GAF has the best art design so far.

 

[Firestorm]

I have a shirt idea I might throw in the ring as well. Let's make a couple and if we can submit all, submit all and if not pick the best for Evilore to put up.

 

[shira]

Milk bags, eh, and some sort of maple leaf. Oh and poutine

 

[AlphaTwo00]

I'd buy one.

 

[Lostconfused]

I know right? Whatever my dislikes for ponies might be, that is one brilliant design and hits on every level.

I am definitely all for a canada gaf shirt. Maybe something about not being able to keep politics out our gaming topics or any canada related topics for that matter.

 

[Firestorm]

Could just have a map of Canada with the Canadian cities with hockey teams labelled showing missles flying between them to show how every argument ends

I guess that means no Toronto.

 

[Kazerei]

Same idea as the top banner in this thread. *shrugs*

EDIT: See post #708

 

[darkvir]

Pilotwings and Nintendogs are $10.97 at Costco

Oh Costco, you so crazy

Just got back from Costco, Pilotwings $34.97...

 

[AlphaTwo00]

Or have all cities aim missiles towards Toronto.

 

[AlphaTwo00]

Price was hit and miss per region and store.

I've seen Kirby Epic Yarn for $24, even though it was reported to be $10.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

I love it. Great design and clever.

Except for one thing. I know why the gray is there. But it really clashes with the red, and doesn't look good. Maybe if the background was darker, and the gray was white?

 

[Takao]

My brother got dinged for $78 in customs on Wednesday. It was UPS, and it had to be CC or Cheque.

 

[Firestorm]

Hahahaha I was going to post that then backed off

I love that shirt design. Would love to see it on a black background or something with white bottom.

 

[erpg]

Man, if this design comes out, I'm going to be forced to spend 50$ on nerd gaming forum t-shirts.

ahhh, good to know, thx.

Looks like a Pokeball :>

I'm allowed cause I'm in Toronto (well, close enough).

I do support the leaf logo. Is that high enough resolution?

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Looks like a Pokeball :>

A little, haha, but I would be more willing to spend money on this one then the other to be honest.

What does everyone else think? Maybe keep the red and white, but on a dark grey background? I like the way it looks now though.

Btw, not sure if you created the design, but great job, seriously. I would never have thought to do it like that.

 

[Roto13]

I just saw a used copy of Jump Ultimate Stars at Game Centre on Yonge in Toronto for $25. Notable because Jump Ultimate Stars is an import game and therefore rare in Canada. I wouldn't be able to buy it until next week and I'm sure it will be gone by then anyway.

 

[Kazerei]

Here's a lower contrast version.

The idea isn't really mine, I got the inspiration from the top banner. But I thought it could look nicer, so I tried making it myself.

EDIT: See post #708

 

[Fuzzy]

I don't get it, we don't even have a team.

 

[Lostconfused]

Canada Post's website told me that I would finally get my copy of Catherine today. Turns out I am a naive sucker. Now I have to figure out what else I am going to do over the weekend.

Both grey and black background look nice. I still think black looks best though. The red and white really pop on the black, and it isn't immediately apparent that it is a neogaf t-shirt which I like, but still a neogaf t-shirt.
