I tried getting tickets at exactly 11am and I kept getting bad requests and errors, and now it's sold out. I passed the attendee info page and it error'd out past that.

What's the position you are applying for? What's the worst that could happen? They say no? At least you will get the interview experience. I've sent exactly 52 resumes since March, and I did not even get one call back. It's honestly a bummer.

Well don't feel bad, after I had tickets reserved for 30 minutes their page gave me an error and now they're gone

I reserved two tickets using the same name but used different phone numbers and emails. Do you think they'll be nitpicky about that? Lol
Did that because none of my friends would give me a solid answer as to whether they'd actually wanna come or not. I think the thought of them going to a theatre to watch a press conference seems a bit ridiculous, but free swag might do some convincing.
If none of them are interested, I would be more than happy to give one of those tickets to a fellow gaffer. If anyone's interested let me know and I'll try to get back to you asap.
Oh Calgary btw

Yeah, did the same and the page was very fast to respond!

haha Oh Calgary!
I got mine when the first wave of reservations got cancelled, and I don't think they will give you a hard time if you have at least one of the names right!
Edit: Sorry for double posting like an idiot
Not much of a deal because the game is free on Games With Gold right now, but if you want a physical copy Amazon has Sunset Overdrive for $9.95. http://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00KCVGAUQ/

I can't even register for PS Experience because the website keeps telling me that my ZIP is invalid. 😡

Scroll down and choose Canada instead of the US, there will be two small flags at the bottom!

Disagree with that characterization. Excellent game.
I play solo and most times some randoms will join my mission. No bugs ive noticed on xbox one, aside from minor matchmaking issues. The loot system is not "the game of menu management", its actually super quick and efficient.
I really enjoyed it for 25+ hours which is unusual for me, as i normally get bored at the 10 hour mark.
Enjoyed the division, doom (ps4), forza 6, ori, halo 5, ratchet. Havent cared much for anything else this year.
Really really had a ton of fun with it.

I'm more surprised that I was able to get PS Experience tickets for Toronto pretty easily and smoothly at 1PM on my phone. I even got my confirmation email in a timely fashion. Last year and the year before were a struggle with the website shitting itself, and the emails just not showing up for 24+ hours.

You should make a thread.
It's an IS-03 (I'm IS-02 right now) (it's the communications category) as a Web Project Officer. Exam and interview went ok. Always tough to know if you did good with these, and I was the first to go for them for a new position. I'm also not that chatty, so my interview time was on the short side.
Had to evacuate the building right in the middle of the exam too. So that was a thing.
Also, don't give up, this was a job I applied for in October.
Why is there no Ottawa for this?

Dead Island Definitive is $3.30 on Steam right now. Not sure if its because I own the first, or its just a really good deal.
It's a loyalty discount for owning the original.

Oh okay. Still a damn good deal even for a loyalty discount imo.
Oh yeah, definitely. Wasn't expecting to get it for that price.

What makes it even more definitive than the original PC version?

They ported it to the Dying Light engine. It does look quite a bit better!

Did anyone preorder Mirror's Edge CE?
I have a preorder with EB Games but they just sent me their flyer and it says CE doesn't include the game!!

1 day after ordering i got a label number. But didnt receive it for a week (in line with estimated delivery date)
wait what? I have a preorder with Bestbuy. WTF.
EDIT: oh lol. Bestbuy just added the price of the game on top of the CE price.
It was supposed to be a combo item with the CE part and the game as separate line items. You might have been able to get just the CE part by itself by mistake.

We learned this a few weeks ago.
They really should have a sku with the game. It's a good idea for digital peeps though.
Honestly, I'm not sure why I still have a Mirror's Edge preorder. Is this game going to be good? There is zero hype.
I'm in the same boat. I enjoyed but didn't love the first one. I'm thinking of cancelling, but the sweet old E3 deals are hard to pass up.
I haven't heard much about the new one other than some mixed impressions from Gamespot and a 30 minute video featuring a super angsty NPC. It seems to be open city-ish with location based missions ala Assassin's Creed, but I'd love to hear impressions from someone who actually played it.

I guess I'll do the same, I'll just keep my 4 years old $40 preorder!
Ugh was hoping it would be $10. Will wait for a sale on PS4.
So guys, noob question about cell phones...
I'm with Videotron right now using a MotoX Play that seriously suck (the model is fine but my phone keeps crashing and Videotron won't replace it cause they can't reproduce the intermitent issue in store...).
My brother in law offered me his old Bell iPhone 6.
So could I use it? I assume it needs to be unlocked?
How does that work with my contract since I still have over a year to go with my MotoX? I just keep paying for the MotoX for the rest of the contract like nothing has changed unless I want to pay the 230$ balance?

That can't possibly be real. Where is this being offered?
Rogers site is showing me 100mbps down and the basic TV plan. I'm in Ontario.
The internet package itself is priced at $150 and the TV package is $80 + PVR rental.
From the Rogers site:
No mention of gigabit though, and the channel selection is lousy. But still that's a pretty good price. Bell has a similar promotion going on that starts at $97.90/mo for two years.
It is only available by calling their customer service. You mention the plan and ask to look for it. That's how some were able to get it.

Got this in my email this morning
Kinda makes it sound to me like codes again, but that's just a guess. Hope not as that seemed more trouble than it was worth. Although as long as they do 30% off and not 20% like last year, I can deal with it.
Guess we will see on the 10th.
Bring on the Amazon deal match. I feel better ordering from Amazon now that they seem to have their own courier service, at least in Toronto.
I hate that I don't like soda as much as I used to right now. I drank a bottle or two a few weeks ago and it just did nothing for me.
Same deal at 7-Eleven too, much cheaper than the grocery store.

I played the beta for a bit but stopped as I didn't wanna ruin it. The missions are great if you enjoyed the first game. However I'm not a fan of open world and wish it didn't have an open world. Also not a fan of the progression system and hoping that it doesn't lock a bunch of bullshit in the main game. If you have an E3 promo pre-order I wouldn't cancel.
