Probably really late but, Spec Ops: The Line is free with the purchase of any 2k game on sale @ Humble.

$11.89 for all 3 BioShock games and Spec Ops. That's too fucking good.

Or you can buy Civ3 for like $1.25 or something and get Spec Ops

I decided to try my luck and went to every Target I knew of in Brampton and the Square One location. I was hoping to find Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire, but of course, no dice.

I did end up getting Final Fantasy Theater-blah blah Curtain Call and DKC Returns 3D, which was a pretty sweet find out of all of the Disney shovelware. I saw an Ocarina of Time 3D at Trinity Commons too, but I don't care for that game.

I never give out my number in the kijiji ads, because who wants crazy people having any of your personal information to harass you. They don't even get your e-mail address unless you respond to their online messages, so I just ignore all the crazy messages and ridiculous offers and respond to the people that have a clue.

Ugh, lesson learned when giving out numbers. I've had several creeps flirting with me, trying to hook up, etc. through texts weeks after I've sold something to them. :/ And some people spam my inbox, forcing me to block them.

I still choose to sell on there because I've had a lot of success, despite the influx of lowballers. It usually turns out to be a good deal for me as I don't have to worry about shipping/Amazon/Ebay fees or the inevitable lost package.

Any good deals on a PS4, used or new?

My bro's looking to pick up another for Bloodborne and Dark 2 coop.

TLOU PS4 bundle for $399 and you can save $20 on Bloodborne. http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/playstation-4-playstation-4-500gb-the-last-of-us-remastered-bundle-3000594/10305409.aspx?path=79c360165983bdeea1fc6476f6901f35en02&SearchPageIndex=1

 

[Exist2Inspire02]

I was at the FutureShop on St. James Street (Winnipeg) and they had 'The Walking Dead: Season One' on Vita for $9.99

Also Toys R Us had Lumines on sale for $9.99 as well. Not sure if the latter is a good price or not, but figured I would mention it.

 

[Roto13]

Lumines has been cheaper on PSN during the occasional sale. It's worth $10 though. It never leaves my Vita.

Spoiler

Because it's my only physical Vita game.

Heard this morning that Futureshop is closing it's store across all Canada. Merging with Best Buy.

wtf?

 

[Darth Chocula]

Whoa, that would be crazy, checked twitter and some people claim it's an ASAP closure/transfer to Best Buy. All I can say is... I hope my $20 off a title with my purchase of Bloodborne is still valid for April :|

 

[firehawk12]

Where did you hear this though?

If you have a smart phone try using text plus. It's a WiFi texting app that gives you a different number.

 

[jet1911]

Radio station in Quebec city. The 3 stores here are closed.

 

[CuthbertAllgoodz]

Radio station in Quebec city. The 3 stores here are closed.

Seriously? I was going to return something today...

Edit: It would make sense here, two of them are a minute from Best Buy (Not Beauport location, but Capital and Laurier)

 

[LordAmused]

Seriously? I was going to return something today...

Yup, seems like mainstream medias are reporting the news here in Quebec now...That doesn't sound too good.

 

[grumble]

What?! I'd really like a confirmed company report, I wonder if this is a twitter thing like Jackie chan dying.

I have gift cards!

 

[The Elite]

If true, I am so glad I did my E3 orders last year through Best Buy.

I may be fucked for my $39.99 FFXV and MGSV though.

 

[CuthbertAllgoodz]

Aww shit did not think about that. I still have a bunch of games through FS like FFXV, MGSV, Witcher 3, KH3...

I didn't even think of that. Derp.

I have Zelda coming from FS... and with the delay... i should probably order another copy from BB this june

edit: SMTxFE too

Spoiler

shut up, it exists!!!

 

[The Elite]

I would assume Best Buy will honour Future Shop giftcards if this happens.

FS gift cards technically work on Best Buy's system. I know, since I use Future Shop gift cards on Best Buy's website all the time and vice versa.

 

[CuthbertAllgoodz]

Well, no answer at Futureshop after letting the phone ring for 2 minutes...

9 here on the week-end.

 

[ohlawd]

what the fuck

My Wii U E3 orders are with FS.

 

[nobodyshero]

what the fuck

My Wii U E3 orders are with FS.

...me too

 

[i-Lo]

what the fuck

My Wii U E3 orders are with FS.

Given they're rebranding, the status of the orders should remain unchanged but be available under the BB domain name once the shift is done.

 

[Fularu]

http://www.am980.ca/2015/03/28/future-shop-stores-close-across-canada/

Website works just fine for me here.

Hopefully they move orders over, I'm sure they will but still.......horrible year for Canadian retail

 

[The Elite]

I would have ordered that MGSV limited edition if I had known there was a chance that my FS E3 preorder would not be honoured.

We will have to wait and see.

[Lexxism]

Damn. I totally forgot my FF15 and KH3 pre-orders from FS.

 

[BigJonsson]

Vaughan Futureshop is history


FS gift cards better still work at BB.......

 

[Tuck]

FS closure is effective immediately? Thats weird.

 

[N° 2048]

Some Futureshops have signs at the front door saying "Re-opening April 4"

 

[Fularu]

Probably as "best buy"

What's weird is that you can still place orders on the Futureshop website

 

[No_Style]

Damn. I totally forgot my FF15 and KH3 pre-orders from FS.

I have FFXV, The Division, MGSV, Mirror's Edge 2 and The Last Guardian (PS3). D:

Probably as "best buy"

I actually take it as a good sign. It hopefully means that they'll collapse the FutureShop and BestBuy backends together.

 

[nobodyshero]

Wait, I just realized I have a game I need to return there. Will best buy accept it?

 

[Fuzzy]

What will happen to my multiple filler orders of The Last Guardian and Agent?

 

[BigJonsson]

Mass Effect, Rise of the Tomb Raider PS4, FF15, MGS5, Division, Star Wars: Battlefront......

 

[Fularu]

Well they just stopped working. Now whenever I try to add something to my cart, it redirects me to the front page.

I have to assume that refunds and gift cards will have to be taken to Best Buy. It makes zero sense for them to just fuck people over like that

 

[DaBoss]

I think you guys should take a screencap of your orders or something. Just to be safe.

 

[Fuzzy]

How long until all retailers close up shop in Canada and we're left with online only? 15-20 years?
