Preorders are $10 off at Futureshop right now, which means $24.99 Pokemon BW2.
Serebii has list of differences. Exclusive Pokemon and Unova Link Keys (Black key makes game tougher, White makes game easier) are the major ones. There are some changes to the overall look too.
That helps a lot, thanks. Is the story the same for both games? If not, I might double dip. The terrain/layout differences look really cool. Most of the White ones look cooler, I may cancel Black.

Is that the only reason they decided to make two sequels instead of one mega sequel?

Did anyone pickup Journey CE in Canada? Does it have the same reversible cover art as the States?
Ratchet and GoW do, so I would assume that Journey does as well.

Any deals on Persona 4 Arena? I see that on EB's most wanted trade in games, I can get +20% from Dark Souls and Red Dead, what does that mean though?
Ottawa friends!
I now have free advance passes for an advance screening of Pitch Perfect in Ottawa (Orleans) on Sept 19. Anyone wants? Every pass admits two, sending out blocks of 4. PM me with thy business address and someone's name who I can send the package to the attention to.
Vancouver is still available too! (for the Park/Tilford Cineplex, same date, North Vancouver)

Hey thanks for the heads-up! Ordered a Black version for me and a Blanche (french) version for my niece. It's our annual Pokemon meet-up where we play together the first hours of the game.
EDIT: Also ordered another Blanche for my wife, hehe.

Thanks, I hope this is the case, glad Sony is giving us some of that double-sided love now.
Let's say DS and RDR get you $20 total, you'd get another 20% on top towards xx game.
If you're in Toronto and want it on 360. I'll sell you mine. Spent 1hr on it after release haven't had time for it since lol.
It's a little different than previous generations. Usually the third pillar games (Crystal, Emerald, Platinum) are remakes with extra content. With Black / White 2, the games are actual sequels that carry on the story. So in that way, even though it's the same generation, it's an entirely new game.

Do you know if you can battle 6v6 online (with auto-levelling to level 100) this time? Sucks that infrared was the only way to do it in B/W.

I'm in TO, but I'm looking for PS3 version.

I haven't opened mine yet, but it looks like the cover on the back is blank? I just assumed that since we get the bilingual special, we'd get the crappy cover.
Ah, so do I need to play Black (or White) first?
Not sure. I`ve put a lot of hours into BW2, but haven`t touched online battling, trading, or the Subway at all.
It`s probably not required. BW`s story is really pretty quality, but it`s not like you`re going to be lost in BW2. You will just have less of a connection with characters you come across. Original BW are very good games though and definitely worth playing through.

That Best Buy coupon will let me justify picking up Lego Batman 2 (the gimped version) for my Vita, I guess...
Thank you. I just replaced my E3 $30 Paper Mario order with a $25 one.
Glad even though the fine print says it doesn't work on pre-orders that it really does.
preeeettty sure Best Buy never intended for us to be getting $15 off all of our pre-orders right now, haha
Yeah, I also re-ordered Sly Cooper to save an extra $5 off of my E3 pre-order. All my other pre-orders were cheaper because of tsilon coupons.
yikes, I guess that would explain it...
so there are just no restrictions at all? ~_~
