Welp, so much for 30 Day arbitration period.
Does PSVR work if you wear glasses?
Are they letting kids use PS VR? I want to take my 8 year old when it rolls into town on the 23rd.
12 years old is the cutoff age for the demo.
Canada Post is full of shit. Just go back to the bargaining table you assholes

Shame on me, but I caved and impulse bought couple of these...

I want to so badly but I just can't for a 500 mL bottle. If it was a Litre or a "buy 2" I'd be be down.
Mine was just taking parents' word for it. Heard the Rep say he wasn't going to argue with anyone over age.
It struck me the other day when I walked by an EB Games just how hard they've been hit by digital purchases. The store was practically empty apart from merchandise and Funko figures. For a second I thought the store got bought out and replaced by some anime convention vendor. Like, what the hell? Comic shops have more robust stock and variety of product on their shelves than video game stores now.Cross post from Toronto thread
So this sums it up I'd say. Me trying VR, my girlfriend not amused.

It's weird because it feels like this switch happened out of the blue while digital marketplaces have been a thing for a decade now.
Yeah, the digital market has been around for a while, but I think it's pretty much the most popular it's been compared to the days of yesteryear. Consumer culture in the West always wants things at the ready with minimal effort to get them. Combine that with digital sales that make it more appealing to buy digital than to venture out to your nearest retailer, makes for a big shift in the retailer space.
To my knowledge, when you buy a digital game on consoles it's yours to keep, but there isn't a way to transfer the license to another. I don't know the likelihood of this changing or if theirs any push to change it, but EB is going to have to find a way to survive the changes to come. I don't think many are going to be friendly to the retail space considering the upward trend with buying digital.

EB games has definitely been trying to preemptively add other revenue sources by adding other gaming culture related products, including those hideous funko pop figures. I'd genuinely like to know where else is there to buy video games reliably in Canada though. In my experience EB Games still has the best selection, and is pretty much the only place to get games reliably. The only other retailer that comes close is BestBuy, but it can be hard to find "older stock" there as well. Wall mart seems to only carry new releases, and is usually more expensive than the others.
Need that Disney 3.0 for 20$, but i need to add something to my cart to get free shipping with Amazon.
Any idea?

Can anyone tell me if there are any pros/cons to getting the wiiu version of disney infinity over PS4? Taking into consideration I have a 4 year old who may play at some point? Thanks!
I literally just bought the 3.0 on the PS4 over the Wii U version. My choice came down to one thing and one thing only; 2.0 on the Wii U was FAR AND AWAY WORSE than 2.0 on the PS4.
Thank you for the detailed reply. That's enough to make my decision. Was already leaning towards PS4 anyway ��
Picked up Dungeon Travelers 2, new with the calendar for $20 at EBGames. Solid deal if you can find it.
If you've got a Real Canadian Wholesale Club near you it should be $1.33
Anyone know where I can find the Interstellar Collector's Edition online?
Amazon.ca doesn't have it, and Amazon.com doesn't have any that ship to Canada.
Problem is that EB is never really *that* reliable in terms of finding old stock. Hell I found my sleeping dogs definitive edition at Best Buy and not EB, they didn't even have sealed copies of DA inquisition while Superstore and BB has tons of them for both PS4 and XB1
The London Drugs near me once even had Samurai Warriors 4 in stock long after the release, that shocked me.
Sign up for the free prime trial if you haven't used it yet and then you can also take advantage of any prime day deals

Added the Mulan Disney Infinity 3.0 figure to my cart and Best Buy wanted to charge $17.99 in shipping :/.
Will just reserve in store, but that's kind of ridiculous.
I just want the steel bookHorizon CE is now available to preorder in canada, incase someone is interested. If you have preordered at bestbuy during their e3 promo you should get 10x points.

It's really weird to me, though. I mean, in the past I would happily venture into EB Games and see if anything caught my eye. Now I'll walk past, see the stacks and stacks of Funko figures and not even want to step a foot into the place.Yeah it really feels like end of an era, I still remember those days where me and my friend had $5-$10 and we go to EBGames, browse through games to see what we can afford and most of the times, we wouldn't even buy anything lol
