You dare seek to overthrow the Fire Lord?! GET HIM.
it sucks to be paying american fibre prices for a fibre connection that is literally just neutered to ~1/9th of its performance
but its been 8 times more reliable for me the last several months then their internet 1XX that was just cable lines was last year. last year during the summer during the daytime streaming video was just "nah bro"
Even better than the first one.
I will wait for the 40$ price point since I have so many games to play.
Also, not sure if it's been mentioned, but Tales of Berseria is 40$
It's a real deal, as we understand it in this thread, in that what we're getting in Canada is only 25 per cent as good as what they get in the States.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Its also that price at EB.

Might be a permanent price drop for Berseria? I feel like it's been slowly dipping lower and lower over the past few months.
I believe it is.

Oh jeebus, is this a permanent price drop? So many games...
I'm curious about Besaria as well - I heard it was one of the better Tales games?
And Wal-Mart, noticed it earlier today. So it looks like a permanent one.
ive had it for a a while and the speeds are nice but the modem they give you likes to change the NAT randomly. a lot of the time when gaming its set to strict which causes problems online. anyone know what settings to use to get this modem to stop screwing around with the NAT?
If you're talking xbox/ps4, just throw the IP into DMZ. Best to give your console a static IP though, so it'll stay put in DMZ.

Good luck with that. They keep pulling the "it'll be fixed after it ships" BS. Just reorder it.
Berseria is my favorite Tales game since Vesperia. Characters are great!

You can get an idea if it would be worth via this interactive site from CBC to give you an idea what you'll see.

Thanks! I just switched back to Shaw for the 150 deal and kept randomly getting strict nat warnings while logging into warframe with the wife.

Isn't it 2:19?
Much better. That's practically night time.
The site must've messed up because it said 13:19 the first time I went there and now it says 14:19. Fucking CBC, shut them down!
Give em more funding so they get the times right!!!

It's a solar eclipse, not a lunar.
Optimal time for eclipse is 2:19 pm in Ottawa.
Just 50% though.
They are quite hard to find used in good condition nowadays, and the market is flooded with unreliable fakes. I sold like $800 worth of 360 games (~120 of them) and the first thing the guy at the store asked me was "You don't happen to have any PS3 controllers do you?"

Shipped from Mississauga, supposed to show up today so I was ready to take my negative comments back but then they attempted delivery but no one tried my buzzer and they didn't leave an attempted delivery notification so... Purolator gonna Purolator.

Call and say you were home and nobody bothered to even ring your bell, make them come back. They screw me with that BS every single time too

I tried, she gave bs excuses for why they didn't bother to do anything and told me I could pick it up at their shipping depot (nowhere near me) tonight or the best she could do was get it shipped to a location near me to pick up Monday so I'm doing that.
Like in the grand scheme of things it's not a big deal so whatever, but it's just annoying that Purolator manages to do this every time.

Pro tip for future deliveries. As soon as you get a tracking number, you can call them and arrange for alternate delivery location.

Super furious I missed the cheap PSVR bundle on Amazon - still hard to swallow that cost
Traded in a Dualshock 4 today but they wouldn't take the USB Wireless Adapter for PC, so now I have no use for it. Guess I have to sell it online, but I'm so over that hassle, esp. when it's only for $15 or whatever I would get.

I'm assuming EB won't accept a Dualshock 4 that's missing the rubber on one of the sticks?

I'll keep that in mind, thanks!
I can't say for sure but the one I traded in with my PS4 was like that and they took it no questions.

Lmao can you not call them to get this fixed? Also holy shit that must be caked in labels by now.

People talking about trading in busted controllers makes me wonder why anyone would buy a used controller from EB. lol

Yes. They also sell digital Switch games which you're better off getting because its taxfree whereas the eshop charges tax. Dont know if they'd have digital Isaac but I bought digital codes for Snipperclips and the BotW season pass from EB.
It comes with a warranty plus I bet a lot of the busted ones get refurbished before going back up for sale.

If you've been in an EB in a mall, you'll know the target market - Parents who generally don't know any better and are looking for deals.

USPS customer service is terrible. Can't even e-mail them without providing a US zip code. Called them and can't even navigate to get to an Operator.
I'm gonna let the Shipper handle this.

So I'm having trouble with Play-Asia. I bought an item that never shipped using my credit card through paypal and eventually they cancelled the order. But instead of a refund they sent me a money "payment/transfer" on paypal so it never went back onto my card and I now had to pay fees because of that.
Should I give play-asia some time to fix this or just get paypal/credit card company involved?

Which deal? I saw one on .com, was there a .CA bundle on sale as well?
