Actually i don't know I signed up on bungie for the alpha I think. Maybe I'll also get a beta code
For those looking for Wii U Pro Controllers, just saw this in another thread
http://www.play-asia.com/nintendo-wii-u-pro-controller-black-paOS-13-49-en-70-5eol.html
They come out to 29$CAD and if you get two, it comes out to 80$ shipping included. I don't know about the tax situation but it seems to be taxes included too. Which would mean 80$ instead of 115$ in Québec for example.

Yeah, I saw that today. Unfortunately I only need one, and while $30 is a pretty good price, if you add shipping it comes up to about the same as what it's sold for on Amazon. :\ Anyone know of a better deal anywhere?

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
I got one for pretty cheap from the Best Buy auction site if you have access to that. Around $30 shipped I believe and the controller was in mint condition.

Did anyone pre-order Sniper Elite from Amazon and get the DLC?
Anyone know anything about passport renewal?
I'm not sure why I heard that there's a form that doesn't require references if I'm just renewing.

I only found that form.

Your local Canada Post should have something called Simplified Renewal forms
Edit: you have the exact same form there. I should have checked.

That's the exact one that I used earlier this year, you need dem references AFAIK
Edit:Beaten, and I stand corrected
Yeah, I googled and it says I can just use my dentist and doctor or something lol. They don't need to sign or anything.
Someone posted this:
"If you apply under simplified procedures you do not need to have guarantors but only name two references who have known you for at least two years. Your dentist does not have to countersign your passport application but you may still add him/her as reference, since he/her knows you for longer than two years, and can certify this if being called by a Passport Canada Officer. The same applies to your doctor or eye doctor; they do not have to countersign your application but may only serve as references if being called and asked whether they know you. "

Note that the requirements for references have been relaxed in the last decade; you don't have to use a doctor/dentist/other professional now, it just has to be someone who's known you for at least two years and is not family. This applies to both application and renewals, as far as I know (I've served as a renewal reference before).
Got dang. Amazon is the gift that keeps on giving.
And taking away. Both their site and Canada Post say they delivered my copy of Atelier Rorona Plus but I have nothing still. Gonna wait until Monday to see if it magically shows up and then I'm going to have to complain, because it's almost TWO WEEKS since the game was released and this is fucking ridiculous.

That reminds me I got to renew my passport too.
You must've done it a while ago because my dad did it for my uncle when we all went to my brother's wedding in 2010.

The Nexus 5's you get from carriers are exactly the same as the ones you get from Google Play, in other words it will work with no problems.
Generally as long as the device is unlocked and on a compatible band it should work, most sim card packs will have that information printed on them.

Anyone tried using pre-paid visa to buy stuff on Amazon?
I never shopped online and I want to use that to get a few games that my local retailers are not stocking.
I heard that there will be a fee posed on pre-paid/gift visas, if the purchase I'm looking for is about $34 after tax, how much would I have to pay in the end including all shipping and fees?
Sorry about this because I realize that this is an incredibly retarded question.

I'm actually a horrible person. I now have 2 copies of Drakengard 3, Limited and regular editions, and 3 copies of Nier because Yoko Taro owns my soul.
For any other Windsor people that are interested, there's still quite a lot left. I saw Dark Souls 2, Ni no Kuni, FFX-X2 HD, MGS Ground Zeroes, a bunch of stuff. Still a fair number of movies left too.

I was in a rush when i grabbed my games, Did you happen 2 see anymore vita games?
Sort of off-topic, but tonight's episode of CBC News: The National has a quick story about videogames and history, using Assassin's Creed III as an example.

Nope. Not sure if its open to the public but I received an email invitation a couple of years back.
Let's hope they don't take 5 hours to get to the main segment.
No, I made sure to ask. Batman was the only one.

Damn, I was just in town! Bah, no sale for me.
I just get to pick through Guelph Staples for a game or two. None of the Windsor Staples have any PS4 games.

Really? Since when do they not let you change shipping address online?

The option is there, it just never works.

On the note of changing shipping addresses:
I have all my e3 preorders on Amazon, and am moving to Toronto in a month and a half. Will I be safe just changing the address online with Amazon?

Same with BB. Changing shipping address was stupid hard for no good reason.
Well, for orders that have no items are shipped at all MAYBE you can do it online.
But for items with partial shipped items (as with E3 preorders usually) you have to call, they won't let you change it online.

Well, as long as they have good deals it won't be terrible. Those prices are adjusted too high though. $64 is more appropriate.
Yeah I had to call in to get some of my old E3 preorders sorted out. And the first time I got a clueless dude who screwed everything up so badly I had to call in again, get everything cancelled and reordered.
I did get my discount, although it wasn't reflected on the site and I had to wait a few days for it to get refunded.
