Fallout 4 if the first Fallout I quit on. I put 60 hours in before finally realizing I hated it.
YMMV though. Lots of people liked it.

Ha. Also had that happen to me yesterday. Only it was Canada Post. I quickly got over it...

You can't possibly hate a game with GRANDMA PLAYS THE NUMBERS :-(
Same. It's a very weak game imo, it just happens to have the best gameplay Bethesda has made yet (which is admittedly a low bar)

It's the most refined Bethesda game without doubt. Its also the first one I quit after 15ish hours. I'm just so bored and done with the formula

I felt like I was playing Skyrim again (pick up everything, explore everywhere, crouch to see if there are enemies nearby), but I had such a massive inventory of random trash in my inventory and I had no idea what weapon to use.
I want to go back as I've played maybe 8-10 hours myself, but I prefer other games in my backlog right now.
Had the same issue. Contacted Amazon Live Chat Saturday morning, had a new code by Monday morning. I've never bothered with their phone line, there's never been an issue their Chat reps haven't been able to resolve for me.

Well fire emblem SE arrived from bestbuy and the box is fucking trashed. Anyone have experience with bb customer service in regards to this?
I also got a copy from Amazon and it's pristine. Would I be better talking with them about the trashed box? Both copies are for a friend and I who are collectors. Not happy at all with this.

that would be a bit scummy, lol
either way they might give you a coupon or something. yes it would be easier to deal with Amazon than Best Buy.
Good luck with that since the SE is so limited, but I think if you blame Amazon and talk to them, they might give you a partial refund.

Amazon: Most likely a 10-15$ credit,
Best Buy: An apology
Still waiting

I'm on the green line atm so where should I stop?
Still waiting here too. I didn't preorder the first time it was in stock but snagged it the second time.
Complain to the ones who fucked it up, so hopefully they see the mountains of complaints and take better care next time.

Yeah, I put in an order on the off chance I decided it would be a good Christmas/birthday gift for my daughter, but I don't think I want it.
Don't make Amazon pay for Bestbuy's shitty packaging
Take it to bestbuy and request a new copy or à partial refund

A small raccoon of mine picked it up
Interesting second tip: You cannot redirect shipments to Amazon delivery points. You have to manually add a new personal address with your name but the delivery point's address details, and then edit.
I backed out and went with just the standard edition from Best Buy. They haven't shipped either. Pretty odd to see some sort of hang up on a less-popular 3rd party title like this.

Thanks for the input guys. Will take it to bestbuy and see what they can do.

I was talking about the $10 off $60 paypal deal.
Hey guys, is this a decent laptop? Not really planning to play games on it, mainly for browsing the Internet + watching videos

For what you're using it for, pretty much any laptop will fit the bill.
Yeah I got it on the second restock as well.
I was only really buying it for the amiibo as I have the XB1 digital version already. Otherwise I would've just cancelled it by now.
Yeah, it's not available anymore and it is not a deal. It lasted for a week I think.

Anyone can tell me if Fire Emblem Fates is playable in French? I am selling my copy at cost and the buyer wants to know. I don't want to open it to test it out! :/

Nah, it would be specified on the box.

Thanks! I checked other cases and yea it's pretty clear when a game is playable in French!
Nice to see this deal back. Gotta maximize that PSN wallet. Thanks to that old Staples deal, and this PSN deal, I'm basically getting $115 worth of stuff for $80.
Uh oh, haha. Which MS store?
Do you need touch? You could probably find a cheaper one without it. For the things you listed you could buy anything unless you have other requirements
Eaton Centre here in Toronto. It was Reading Week last week and I didn't feel like going all the way downtown just for it. You snooze, you lose, I guess.
I had the same thing happen to my Fates preorder. It said 'preparing to ship' for 2 days and 'shipping today' from early in the morning to around 10pm. The good thing is that it said it would arrive on Thursday after finally shipping late Saturday night and showed up on 3 days early on Monday.
10pm? That seems late. But that's good, cause I'm hoping to get it Friday rather than Monday. Stupid Saturday release..
Thanks, took Sunless Sea!

Unless you wanna play VF, you really shouldn't (especially not for SF!)
And that's my 2 cents.

DEAL:
Looks like Best Buy really wants to get rid of Rainbow Six Siege Gold Edition (base game + season pass).
It dropped from $109.99 to $79.97, then last week it dropped to $69.97, and now the PC and PS4 versions have been dropped another $10 this week to $59.97 for both PC and PS4.
PC:

PS4 (this version seems to be selling faster) SOLD OUT:
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product...spx?path=6062bfb0b94624cde3d82247dfd0f3f1en02
the regular edition for all versions is now on sale for $69.99 until march 10, but I don't know why any of you would want that, unless you want the xbox one version (the gold edition for that was priced at $9.99 and quickly sold out). If any of you purchased the game at $69.97 (like me), call customer service and they should refund you the difference.
EDIT:
PS4 version is sold out online now. Might still be available near you locally.

I have a much easier time for SF with Octonal gates versus square ones
Well at least doing Shoruyken in SFV yesterday was painfull, I sucked hardcore
Oh well, I'll just try to get used to the TE2+ stick (my first one ever, it really feels different from my RAP Hayabusa).
