Canadian Gaming Deals and Discussion Thread 5: Much Ado Aboot Shipping

This is just a desperate ploy by Firestorm to hang onto this thread as we unite to oust him. It wouldn't surprise me if he goes to a mod to get this thread locked for a couple weeks to prevent us from taking over. Then, when the bloodlust dies down and infighting among us threatens the rebellion, a new thread quietly goes up and we start posting in it without remembering what we were so angry about earlier. In fact, we thank our lord and saviour Firestorm for making a new thread for us, and count our lucky stars that no other Canadian GAFers took over with their pro-American sentimentality ("I wish we had US prices" and cross-border shopping are so anti-patriotic) and lack of thread-making experience (Juniors are just not ready).

Has anyone ever bought used games from GameAccess? I want to know what condition they come in, any ugly stickers on the discs/boxes, scratches, etc?

Yes, bought a 3DS game. Basically what I did was rent it, make sure everything works as intended, and get a cheaper price. Then buy it off of them. They will ship you the case including all the manuals etc. There's no stickers or whatsoever.

Do we really even need a new thread? I don't know why threads get locked after 20k posts anyway.

Something about threads that are too big slowing the site for everyone IIRC? I think that was the reason back in the old days. On topic, if Firestorm can't make OT 6, who is up to the task?

well looks like i'm done!

But seriously though I'm feeling really under the weather and not up for looking at what needs to be changed and whatnot. You can make the new thread. After 7 years maybe it's time for change?

I'm not sure if anyone elese is interested, but the Collector's Edition for Tales of Zestiria [PS4] is now available at EBGames.ca. I can now cancel my Amazon.com pre-order!

https://www.ebgames.ca/PS4/Games/721013/tales-of-zestiria-collectors-edition

It's $159.99, which isn't surprising given our dollar. Still cheaper than importing it from the US [since Amazon.ca sold out extremely quickly]. I'm not entirely sure if I'll keep it or not, but at least I have a pre-order secuired within Canada now should I decide to go ahead with the purchase. I've heard some very mixed things surrounding Tales of Zestiria, hence my hesitation...

None of that amiibola garbage here please. There's a reason it was spun off into its own thread.

Xbox 360 Wireless Controller (PC) for $47 @ Amazon.

That's a deal, right?

I might jump on it. I upgraded to Win 10 and although there are workarounds for DS4, I always get bothered because the UI is not Playstation UI (and why would it be?).

I think it may have been 39.99 a few weeks ago?

edit- Yep
