The Sears at Pacific Centre is pretty bare for games.

The downtown HMV still has terrible deals. Blu-Rays are 10% off, and discounts are all over the place. Games range from 15% off (new stuff) to 50% (old stuff at $40-60 regular).

Agree that it's pretty much useless but if you want the Canada Hockey Gold 2010 Blu-Ray set, they have it for $10 each which makes it a pretty nice souvenir of the Olympics. They have the DVD set at the same price.

I wonder if Rayman will be a rare game later on, since it was clearly sent to die. It seems like something they'd avoid printing many copies of anyway.

Staples deals are up. If you're looking for a PS3 or 360, it's relevant.

Also KZ3 & LBP2 for $19.99 each ($20 off)

BTW, I've compiled a round-up here for GameDealsCanada. If anyone wants to scrape all that and post it here, feel free. I haven't had the time to format it right for GAF like I did last year. :(

Too good to be true.

They'd better have big copies of that pasted on their doors tonight, because I'm sure there are a few Boxing Day crazies who'll be loading up on rage-o-hol for just this kind of situation.

I'm wondering if it is worth it to upgrade my GTX 460 768mb to a GTX 560 1gb at $159. That price is hot.
Click to expand...

You could probably hold out a little longer for the new nvidia cards to come out since the gtx 460 is still pretty good, and if you waited til then and still wanted a 560 the price will have come down a little farther from that as well.

Having trouble deciding... I want a new TV.

Should I try and get that 32" RCA for $195 at Loblaws, or the Dynex 32" at Best Buy for $199?

IIRC the gtx560 is just a 460 OC'ed so no.

Thanks. I'm just going to wait a few more months. My 460 is serving me well enough.

All I want is two things: a 2500k and a Asus Gene-Z mobo. NCIX looks like my only hope of getting a deal. If not, then I order the 2500k from Futureshop and use my gift card.

Click on PlayStation 3 then scroll down and you can see the deal under Staples. He's not saying it's up to buy right now, just that he's posted the Staples deals on his site.

I clicked on the 360 tab. I'm so out of it. Thanks

Yeah, Dynex is the Best Buy/Future Shop house brand.

http://www.hdtvreview.com/Dynex-DX-32L200A12-hdtv.html this is the Dynex TV

I can't find anything for the RCA but:
32"
60HZ
720p
3 HDMI inputs
1 PC input
LCD

Is the info that Loblaws' site has.
Click to expand...

Ah, well, I guess the best bet would be to look at them in store to see if the picture is good, since on paper they look fairly equivalent. I know I went out of my way to get a 32" that did 1080p, but it was probably more than the 200 dollars they're charging now.

Edit: WTF, EB's website didn't update at 8pm. I want Rayman and Devil Survivor Overclocked dammit!

My god I'm waiting in a massive checkout line to get American Dad Season 6 for $9.99 and a couple of random cheap blurays to qualify for free shipping. I'm only at 16%
