I usually look online by searching through their catalogues.
I found out the library system (four locations) near me had video games and searched the three other libraries within 30 minutes to see what they had. I get them from two different cities' libraries from time to time.

I'm starting to feel like we aren't going to get NES Mini here
I think Nintendo wants lines on the 11th (or 12th) for it, because they're not talking about preorders and we've got like three weeks left.
Speaking of libraries, you can usually also get items (games or otherwise) delivered to your location if you book them online. So if another library in your city has an item that your nearest one doesn't you can just ask to have it delivered and they'll call you to come pick it up when it gets there.

Does this mean game of the year edition is imminent?
i thought all of this stuff was common knowledge
it's so weird to me that people don't use their libraries! such a great resource. you can even "borrow" ebooks now, in addition to graphic novels, blu-rays, tv seasons, etc.

Doubtful, as NOA has already confirmed that the Canadian MSRP is $79.99.
Worth picking up at that price? I enjoyed Fallout 3 but never played any of the other Fallout games.
The hype for the game was massive and in the end the game couldn't live up to it. If you liked the past two Fallout games you will like this but it's kinda samey and really has nothing mind blowing to it. Definitely feels a lot more "we've been here before" and safe. Plus your sorta put on a route where your character is suppose to be good, the choices are pretty lackluster.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Books are scary. Libraries 2spooby4me
Gunplay is better though.
gunplay went from trash to acceptable, it's not that impressive

Fallout 3 is the GOAT.
Amazon.com hasn't shipped my order yet, but I've been trying to cancel it since yesterday. I decided I'd rather keep the $200 USD than buy the Pokémon N3DS XL right now.
They said it's expected to shop on the 28th but with that I figure I still have time to cancel.
There doesn't seem to be a contact Amazon option about it?

Have you tried the mobile version of the site? I've heard that sometimes you can cancel stuff thought that when it won't work on the normal version
I sound the email Amazon option as I turned on my laptop.
I tried cancelling on my laptop and on my iPhone, and that's using both mobile and desktop versions and still no go. :/
If it ships I'll just keep the order but I would rather have it cancelled now and not deal with it.

Titanfail 2 beta was absolute shit. They ruined everything about the MP and I played the first one a lot.
Fallout 4 was fantastic, imo, I put over 500 hours into it and @ 19.99 that's a great deal.
Meh. Felt off. Felt more like a worse copy of TF1 than a sequel. Up against CoD and BF1, don't think it has a chance much. If you have a super low price like below 39.99 or less, keep it. Otherwise you'd probably be better off cancelling and picking it up later for a cheaper price.
No. You missed the $50 deal last week (?). Walmart has it for $60 online.

I wasn't sure if they were still $50 or not, so I didn't say anything. I sold my unused one for $50 yesterday, but I paid more than that before the price went up to $74.99.

Apparently they fixed it, but honestly they put so much effort into the singleplayer that I'd be happy to play it just for that.
It helps that it was one of the 50 dollar games that was on Amazon's list last summer.

I cancelled a colouring book order, forgetting that if I ordered something else with the money it wouldn't be enough for free shipping. That's my brainfart for the day.
There are three I want to order (Color Your Own Spider-Man, Star Wars: Rogue One and Buffy the Vampire Slayer -- which I cancelled for now since it was still just full price and not releasing until January) so I'll order them all together.

I think I'll buy Titanfall 2 and keep it for a week. If I love it, I'll keep it, and if not, I'll return it for my money back.
Same with Battlefield 1.
Neither game has cemented itself as a must own for me, and since I didn't like Battefield 3 or 4 I don't expect to want to keep 1.

IIRC EB Edge members have the ability to return games.
Wait what
Do they then resell those returned games as "New"? (or what they claim to be New)
If so then even more reasons not to shop there.

They have a satisfaction guarantee, which varies in length.
When you return a game, you get your money back in credit and the next purchase is a final sale so to speak, as it's a one-time thing.
I haven't done it much, but it's a nice option to have. I think they return them as defective or other sometimes, but I don't know what the proper protocol is. I assume they eventually go back on the shelf as used games.
For returns on games that have been sold in less than 7 days (under the EB Edge satisfaction guarantee) they are not allowed to be resold, they are instead sent back to head office under "defective." As OCDChewie mentioned, if you return a game under 7 days of purchase, you get full credit towards another game however the credit has to be spent that day and cannot be saved to your account, and the game that you buy with the credit is final sale.
Depending on what head office those with those "defective" games, it either sent back to stores to be sold as refurbished or sent back to the publishers.

That's kind of weird.

So basically they lose nothing by that offer and in fact get a "free" used game that they can resell. lol

I bought a copy at EB when it was $40 new, on sale. It's still sealed (with their sticker) and I haven't had time to play it. Well, energy, I should say.
I've been trying to sell it on Kijiji with no luck. I'll eventually get to it even if I do sell it (I'll buy it cheaper down the road), but am not in a rush given my backlog.
I already beat the game once, on another system. The only reason I rebought it was to play the expansion.
