Use Google Hangouts and call a different EB Games in Canada.
I was going to wait for a price drop to begin with.. But now.. I don't even know if I'll bother. And I'm a big Platinum and TMNT fan.

EBGames is offering $17 for PS4 MKX, I happened to work nearby one and I wanted to check some trade in values anyways
I didn't even realize it was a full priced release. For some reason I was under the impression this was going to be $40.

The delivery estimate went from Day 1 -> June 1 -> No estimate...
I just came back from eb games so I'll return my amazon copy when I'll get it.

I believe the $40 USD PC version on Battle.net had it too, at least for pre-orders. I haven't actually checked to see if I got it, though.
Yes, all digital pre-orders came with Noire Widowmaker.
I don't know if that skin is still available for digital orders for free redemption.

Yeah thats for sure, I had the origins edition pre ordered for PC with express shipping and its showing as Friday for delivery.
I love amazon for their prices but going with Best Buy this E3 might be very tempting for those must play titles.

TIP
Protip for anyone who pre-ordered Overwatch Origins Edition from BestBuy LONG AGO (like when they had it for 30% off).
Right now if you pre-ordered Overwatch from BestBuy you got metal plate as a bonus: http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product...ot-available-for-purchase-68129/10422587.aspx
If you call and state you pre-ordered it and didn't get a metal plate they'll ship you one in the mail. It's a kind of cool bonus, so why not?

I'll call. Live Chat didn't help me and I'm still pretty annoyed they didn't send me the early access code until half the early access period was over -.-
Edit: Canada Post shows Overwatch as delivered in Burnaby but I live in Vancouver. Nobody was home so it probably shouldn't have been delivered as it's Do Not Safe Drop anyway so this will be interesting?

hmm $15 for Final Fantasy Type-0 HD new. good deal?
it's been $10 before. up to you if you wanna wait. I start buying stuff at the $15-20 point so I would have jumped in if I hadn't bought it already.
if you're looking for thoughts, I haven't even touched it yet. can't be that bad and looking at it from hours spent to finish, I can get $15 out of it
I'd love to pick it up at that price. Where can I find that?

Yeah the low consensus in the multiple tmnt threads seems most common. It was hard to tell at first. Some messages have devolved into console wars style arguments "platinum best dev ever look at w101 and starfox GOTY!" versus "everything plat does is awful!".
Game is a tough sell in a month with overwatch, uc4, doom.
Thanks!
It's pretty good. Especially at that price. Make sure to get the patch first though if you want to avoid the headache inducing blurry cam.

How bad is Intelcom Courrier Canada Inc?
Worried that they're not even going to attempt delivery.

Absolutely
I didn't know what to expect when I borrowed it from the library, and considered not even playing it because I figured I wouldn't like it much. However, I was pleasantly surprised by it. It's a solid and enjoyable game, and I had fun with it.
The story was a bit too crazy for me, so I skipped it all. I'd never done that before. But the gameplay was fun.

Horrible if you are not home, great if you are.
"Selling", you can't add to cart still and its been like that since Friday...

Why am I tempted by this so much. I really shouldn't. My 970 is handling VR just fine for now.

I think that I am catching the Overwatch fever. However, I don't remember the last time I bought a game at full price...
Edit: Um... A sealed PS4 copy for 75$ near me on Kijiji.

Yup I do it every year when my sub is about 2 expire.
If it's still available and for PC, I'd love to take it
The origins goodies are just a code you redeem in your battle.net account so PC works. The Noire skin is a PS4 code so either Lone or Dream that is still up for grabs. Something I will PM you the code as soon as I am off of work.
Cheers! Thanks! Haha you've made my day.

Dream can have the Noire skin.
