postwhoremaniac is going to PM tons of copies at Best Buy! lol

[Firestorm]

Before Americans start getting hopes up:
FS means Future Shop.
Future Shop is a Canadian retailer.

Picking up Lost Odyssey for sure.

[saiftk]

Dead Space at 10$ is awesome....Hope I get it and it's not all gone.
Edit: Damn its for 360 only... :(

[musdy]

Dead Space is great at that price!!!

[game_fanatic]

I wasn't a fan of Dead Space when I tried the demo, but for $10, I think I'll have to get it; I'm going to trade-in my copy of Lost Odyssey soontimes at EB so I can get decent credit for it, the rebuy it on Friday; might as well get Fracture too, demo was pretty cool!

edit: Just a couple quick Q's: Are these new or used? Is it a week-long sale? Possible PM with BB? Can we buy now and get price protection later?

[craig64]

**** I am dead broke! AAAHHHH. I want both Dead Space and Lost Odysee!!!!

[Zeitgeist]

Wow I was just waiting for Dead Space to drop to 30 before getting it. This is much better.

[PuppetYuber]

no love for PS3 owner :(

[phanta]

i hope its gonna be like that for a week

[Encrypt]

hmm I wonder if Dead Space and Lost Odyssey can be used at eb for trade 3, might have to buy them and flip them at eb

These are going to be new copies.

[onemorechanc]

Thanks for the heads up jonkaho -- I've been eyeing some of those titles for a while now. Hopefully they will be in stock ...

[neksus]

Def. gonna pick up Dead Space. And another copy of Lost Odyssey :)
Couldn't hurt to switch my discs with new ones and flip the old discs. I even have a nice leftover RB6:V2 dual case for it instead of cramming them all on one spindle!

[thelaughingman]

ah! looks like the RFD effect might kick in for this deal =(

Hopefully I can grab a copy...

[phanta]

if you want to price match this how do you do it

[ichit4k4_set0]

Whats the TIV for these games at EB?

[onemorechanc]

Whats the TIV for these games at EB?

You can have a look here:

http://tivs.ca/

Of course, those might change pretty quick based on this sale ...

[Lone_Prodigy]

Amazing. I would suggest the following:

-in-store pickup NOW (they'll hold it for 3 days)
-pick it up on Friday when it'll scan in at the sale price
-if you're PM'ing, order it NOW from BB, pick it up and PM while you're buying it

[gamer602]

hmmmm

why friday?????
FS flyers ALWAYS starts on THURSDAYS

[jbo2891]

Really?!?! It's always been Friday in Ontario as far as i can remember

[Lone_Prodigy]

Uh, no they don't. They get posted here on Thursday though. ;)

[Griptor]

Wow I was just waiting for Dead Space to drop to 30 before getting it. This is much better.

Me too! I really hope I can get a copy of Dead Space.

I'll go in the early morn' when they open.

[Firestorm]

I just ordered it for in store pickup. I'll pick it up on Friday and it should scan in for $10.

Maybe in BC, but in Ontario, flyers start on Fridays.

Edit: Bought Dead Space and Lost Odyssey, going to get price protection on Friday, and hopefully pick up another copy of Dead Space so I can do the T3G1F at EB, since I have two games that qualify, but not a third.

[neksus]

lol Firestorm way to point him to the RFD forums for tivs :razz:
Also, sales always (without weekend only exceptions or more than one-week promos) are Friday-Thursday. For at least the past 4 years, anyway.

[snuter]

Thanks OP! Got my copies waiting for in store pickup till Friday.

[JGonspy]

I guess I need to get rid of my copy of Lost Odyssey ASAP. Dead Space seems like an instant purchase though.

[No One]

Jesus Christ those are awesome deals. Getting in on Lost Odyssey and Dead Space for sure.

[MrGone]

Sweet christmas!

edit: Oh crap, Dead Space is out of stock locally. Nooooo :(

[Griptor]

I just ordered it for in store pickup. I'll pick it up on Friday and it should scan in for $10.

Does that really work? I'm gonna do that...

[foxmcloud]

guys... why don't you just go buy the games RIGHT NOW and go back with them friday for price adjust
you won't have to rush to buy it friday

they have a price change policy...

just a small advice

too bad I own every games on the list :(
my friend works at EA so I got Dead Space for $20 like a year ago

[Afrodiziak]

Damn I have every game there except Thrillville and that looks horrible :( I think I might go to EB and unload my copy of Lost Odyssey tonight while the TIV is still decent.

[j940651]

can wait to see the TIV for DS & LO!
that's a real profit if it's close to what it was listed at.
like hoard-worthy.

(hoarding is wrong)

[Afrodiziak]

I actually just called EB games because I'm running in to do a Trade 3/Get Free for Prototype and one of the games I'm using is Lost Odyssey. It's TIV right now is $15. Expect that to drop to about $4 at some point next week. lol

[lustyhitter]

Well, maybe I can buy Dead Space for the Xbox 360 and then see if I can trade it for the PS3 version with somebody here or elsewhere. I'll go to FS after my doctor's appointment at 9 A.M. Friday.

Dead Space is down to $40 CAN at RCSS and elsewhere so TIV is down.

I bought Dead Space on Day One; it was O.K. Didn't finish it but kept the saves. Now would be a good time to finish it.

[Opopanax]

Awesome find, I've been meaning to pick up Dead Space for a while now

[supergrover99]

Yikes Dead Space is out of stock in my area and lost odyssey seems to be out of stock anywhere close to me lol... I guess everyone is going for price protection friday :P

[foxmcloud]

all the games are still available at all my locations...
they'll probably restock on friday

[Kekumba]

Will try and go grab Dead Space. Great prices for all those titles, though.. too bad I have most of them.

[Princess Zelda]

Did a in store pick up order. Thanks Jonkaho.
Kekumba it's sold out in Orleans and Merrivale Rd today. I've been watching the stock all evening. You may want to get it soon or do a in store pick up.

[antlp89]

Dead Space was my favorite game of 2008. The demo didn't do it enough justice, imo.

[matsam]

Crap, I got all excited thinking this was for PS3 also...

[MrGone]

I really hope so. I'm dying to get my hands on Dead Space

[Grease_Bits]

Worse comes to wores, you could always just get a rain check.
Myself, I'll be there early Friday morning for Dead Space and Prince of Persia.

[kathos]

Fuckdammit, hoarders picked up everything already all local stores are showing ZERO stock :( you assholes.

[seed84]

wow i hope no one from windsor see's this or im screwed considering i have to work friday morning. That's a incredible price for dead space

[Corizzle]

Probably will have to hope that I can get an order in for Friday and hope the website doesn't fully sell out, I can't go on Friday and I don't trust that my local store can keep them in. I'd rather pay $4 and know I will get Dead Space and Lost Odyssey

[Kekumba]

If you can get rainchecks on sales I'll totally do that. I think I'm in for Prince of Persia, too! $20's a great deal on that.

[johnnyRingo]

Dont know if its just in the states but my local Target has Dead Space for $30.

[arnoldrimmer]

Thanks for the heads up on this one OP!
I was able to get Dead Space and Lost Odyssey for pick up for me and my sister-in-law.

I think I'll also try for a copy of Thrillville. I've really been wanting to try it.

[CrushEm]

Bruuuuuutal. I JUST bought Dead Space at EBG 2 weeks ago for $30. A lil cheaper with that edge card but damn. One of those "if I had only known". Great game for a great price.

[ichit4k4_set0]

So, you cant trade the same game 3 times and qualify for trade 3 get 1 free? I'm definitely not a hoarder since I never did any of those tricks. I just dont get how you can benefits from this offer unless you trade in all your games. None of those I have I believe qualifies.

Meh.

[neksus]

Lost Odyssey + Dead Space + Bolt = $30 cost + taxes = new pre-order
Just sayin'

[No One]

Fuckdammit, hoarders picked up everything already all local stores are showing ZERO stock :( you assholes.
Yeah, Lost Odyssey is coming up empty everywhere now when it was in stock everywhere yesterday. What rubbish. Guess I'll have to price match.

[mr_bungle]

For those who don't know this ad got leaked early, and it starts Friday.

Sorry if someone has posted, I haven't seen anything on it yet. I don't live in Canada, but I sure wish I could be there this weekend, I would love to have another copy of Dead Space and Lost Odyssey! :)

[game_fanatic]

You can't even do an ISPU for Best Buy or Future Shop now, either.

[Guy Legend]

Those are some nice deals. Even the XB360 hardware is discounted to $269.99.

[UjnHunter]

I'd paypal someone if they would be able to pickup a copy of Dead Space (360) & ship it to me. PM me. Thanks.

[Josef]

FYI, there is a Canadian forum in the Regional area.

[j940651]

Lost Odyssey + Dead Space + Bolt = $30 cost + taxes = new pre-order

the TIV for Bolt is from february.
jus' sayin'.

[butters1290]

are the canadian games compatible with U.S. 360s or are they another version?

[jbo2891]

[Scienyde]

They're the same.

[onemorechanc]

... I would love to have another copy of Dead Space and Lost Odyssey! :)

I don't understand this ... I've seen a number of people post that they want more copies of these games (and Mass Effect etc.). Why? Aren't they all single player games? If there is no co-op or multiplayer, then what is the point? Or is it just secret code for hoarding? I'm not trying to be sarcastic -- I really am curious.

[ProfNut]

EB Games is going to be flooded with Dead space and Lost Odyssey copies... lol

[musdy]

Looks like Guelph has been cleaned out of Dead Space!!! :cry:

[playing mantis]

I wouldn't mind getting Dead Space, too bad I'm in California LOL.

If anyone picked up extra copies, CML for trades

Thanks!

[TronB]

Dang, all my close (and even not so close) Futureshops are already out of Lost Odyssey. Is it uncommon for a restock to happen during the week?

[pmp1986]

My Futureshop had no Lost Odysseys guess I'll try to PM @ Zellers though don't they usually call the store you're PMing with to check stock?

[butters1290]

well then will this work for online orders too? if so i'm def pickin up dead space!

[j940651]

some relevant EB TIVs as of: 3:00pm est.
Dead Space 360 -$15
Lost Odyssey 360 - $15
Bolt 360 - $5

[Corizzle]

well then will this work for online orders too? if so i'm def pickin up dead space!

Yes, $1.99 per game added for shipping though. For me it's worth it though as I live far enough away that it would cost me roughly $8 in gas and I only want Lost Odyssey and Dead Space.

[dancrane212]

Thanks for the heads up, I'll stop in at FS for Deadspace and HMV for some Blu-rays

[Frendo]

For anyone who does not want to wait for rush tomorrow, the Walmart in Whitby has Lost Odyssey for $10, it's still on the shelf. At least a few copies there, so get it tonight if you want.

[Grease_Bits]

Looks like Guelph has been cleaned out of Dead Space!!! :cry:

DAMMIT!! I was planning on being there at 10am to make sure I'd get a copy... oh well. Hopefully PoP is still gonna be there tomorrow morning, other wise thank god for rain checks :D (Guaranteed I just jinxed myself on the PoP being there tomorrow).

[supermodestmouse]

if anyone can get me a copy of deadspace (360), I'll pay you an extra 5 plus shipping!

[CHW]

I was able to place an order for Dead Space and Lost Odyssey for $9.99 each (plus $4 shipping) on the Futureshop website. They're listed as "out of stock" so it might take awhile, but I'm not really in a hurry.

[chrisryans]

I put a web order in too since I'm too far away from an actual FS. Hopefully it doesn't take too long to come in stock. As long as it's before the TIV goes down, I'm happy heh.

[Allawishes]

My local store is out of Lost Odyssey, so I just went and ordered them both online.

[JGonspy]

It was strange, because when I ordered the game online, the main page for Dead Space said it was shipping the next day, but the actual order said it was out of stock. I'm not too familiar with ordering stuff online from Future Shop, what exactly does this mean?

[Zeitgeist]

I had the same issue with Dead Space.

[Griptor]

I've had that happen before, too. I don't know what it means exactly, but I do know that my order didn't take long to ship even though it said out of stock. Maybe a bit longer than usual, but not long.

[Opopanax]

It's probably just that with something like this, they know they'll be getting new stock in asap, so while they may not have it now they should by tomorrow.

[jbo2891]

I tried ISPU at a store that showed in stock on the website around 7 am this morning, but i recieved an order stating my order was NOT filled @ 10.


man they put a limit on online ordering...i wonder if its PER store or per account :D

Knowing that everyone thinks of you as a shameless hoarder and all round waste of thread posts on this forum as well as RFD, I must ask...Do you post things like this on purpose or are you truly unaware that you are a douchebag? Because you are on a whole new level of ignorance if you are oblivious to how you come across to people.

[telepathy]

i dont think an ignorant person would say such a thing. You know, who actually needs more than 2 copies of a 360 game? Are they stocking up for christmas or something?

[Lockescythe]

hoarders would want more than 2 copies. So yeah. I like 2 per person.

[onemorechanc]

I was able to pick up "Mass Effect", "Dead Space", and "Lost Odyssey" at my local FutureShop (SJ, NB). They had quite a few copies of all the games there.

Thanks again to the original poster.

Sorry if you misunderstood, it's actually ignorant for that guy in particular based on MANY of his posts, mostly on RFD. If you knew the kind of person you were dealing with here, you'd understand where i'm coming from.
My main point is that it's ignorant for klepto to do it because he already gave himself a bad rep and each post he makes just further shows his intentions.

Here's an idea of what i mean, he's got a couple posts on this page:

As much as I hate to see someone get picked on, I think he pretty much deserves it. I wouldn't be surprised if it (posting things like you mentioned, or worse) wasn't on purpose and he really DID have no clue. Something is seriously wrong with him. I wouldn't even know what disorder to pin on him though! Sorry bud, but you need some help and you should strongly consider going away (and not even lurking)!

[Afrodiziak]

I don't see anything wrong with people buying 1 or 2 copies for TIVs but over that is a little excessive.

[Brian9824]

If anyone could pick up and ship me Dead Space and Too Human send me a message. Can send paypal.

[Gold_guardian]

Fruitcake! Lost Odyssey sold out on the online store now so it won't let me order it and it's not available at any of the local stores near me so I can't go pick it up either!

Thanks for posting, I was waiting on an in-store pickup email to see if I got Dead Space waiting for me but I figured I would just place an order online while I still can.

There might be some come available if people cancel their orders if they PM at a different store.

[Grease_Bits]

Save me a copy of Prince of Persia. :)

There were about 5 plus copies in the xbox 360 section and on my way out I saw a little display full of the games on sale in the flyer (Didn't look too hard at it to see whether it was all Bolts or a mix of everything). Note to Guelph shoppers, apparently one guy came in this morning and bought 4 copies of Dead Space, and the rest of them were on hold for ISPU. So no chance at Dead Space at all. Though they guy did say they were expecting to be restocked by Monday so get your rain checks on. Out of stock of Lost Odyssey too.

[musdy]

I just got back and got Prince of Persia but like Grease_Bits said they were OOS of Dead Space.

[WillGabriel]

I in-store ordered Dead Space, Too Human, and Lost Odyssey to West Edmonton early this morning and they were all in stock at the time... but Dead Space is now listed as out of stock and I haven't received my confirmation email yet. Fingers crossed...

Damn hoarders...

Fail. I just got an email as well saying "You lose. Try again later." I'm going to try the same at Best Buy and just price-match, assuming they'll do that on a pickup when FS has no stock remaining.

[pmp1986]

Just PM'd Lost Odyssey at Zellers without any issue. My local FS had no copies

[CaptNink]

I ordered Dead Space for store pick-up at the Langley Future Shop. Just got my 'come pick it up' e-mail - I'm good to go.

Thanks to op - this is one of the best deals I've ever scored!

I was just in there and they had absolutely nothing. A few copies of Mass Effect, Bolt, and some PoPs. The girl working there told me there was about 20 people waiting outside this morning for them.

[foxmcloud]

went and all games were available but they were getting bought pretty fast

[scourdx]

I saw few FS employees hording the Dead space. I was at Futureshop around 10:05 and not 1 single Dead Space.

[JnJosh]

apparently sale means, they dont have sufficient stock! good thing i pm'd 2xdead space, and i got the blu ray for 9.99 too heh

[MrGone]

In-store pickup worked very well. Thanks for the post jonkaho! Frightfully good deal, sir.

[Princess Zelda]

Thanks Op, picked up Dead Space and 2 James Bond Blu-rays and Cast Away. Kanata had lots of the 30 Blu-rays this morning. A Display at the back of the store.

[Dr Banzai]

I saw few FS employees hording the Dead space. I was at Futureshop around 10:05 and not 1 single Dead Space.

Me, too. Was there (the one on 120th st and 72nd in Surrey) at 10:30 and there was no Lost Odyssey and no Dead Space. PoP was there for 19.99, though.


Durn.

[boba_fett300]

Got my DS from BB for $6.99 with PM.

[Lockescythe]

my location was out of LO before the sale even started, also Dead Space is gone too. Everything else still has a few also my location (queensway) also has a few bonus games at 9.99.

All locations will have Enchanted Arms/Superman Returns 2 pack and project sylpheed for 9.99

Queensway has Soldier of Fortune, Kengo, Bulletwitch, Kameo and Kung Fu Panda at 10$ each. Gone when gone, obviously.

[pika]

The Futureshop on Winston Churchill had none but the Bestbuy across the street had some copies of Fracture and Too Human, I got a copy of Fracture for 7.90 total. A worker at FS said that there was a single copy of Dead Space or Fracture(one of the two) at the Heartland location.

[ragnar14]

Fail. I just got an email as well saying "You lose. Try again later." I'm going to try the same at Best Buy and just price-match, assuming they'll do that on a pickup when FS has no stock remaining.

Boo, I got an order canceled email too. I guess I shouldn't have waited till midnight last night to order, but I didn't want to order it till their site reflected the real price.

Oh well, I don't really care about Dead Space. I'll wait until it price drops again somewhere else. And I don't need to be bothered going out to FS today.

[j940651]

I visited Vaughan, Mississauga and Burlington franchises before finding one copy of DS at my LOCAL Hamilton store. LO and DS were gone everywhere. People lined up in the morning like boxing day at some. Not a ton of people lining up but enough kleptos buying several copies of each game and snapping pics of them, and you only need a handful to close out a store.

And if you're "Dan" from Cambridge, the copy of DS I got was the one you had reserved. My local CSR was a good sport when I told her about my day looking.
Sorry Dan. Blame the kleptos. I'm playing mine.

[Griptor]

Thanks jonkaho for the thread, and thanks Firestorm for the pick-up tip!

In Kanata, the guy said most copies of Dead Space were ordered for pick-up, and the rest were cleaned out quickly this morning.

The only games that are left, from what I remember, aren't worthy...lots of Spiderman's...

[maigoyume]

For those in the lower mainland

All the FS's in Vancouver and Richmond have been cleaned out

Oh and the Cambie BB as well

Couldn't even score a single copy :(

[lustyhitter]

My buddy in London was able to get Dead Space. He went to Best Buy and not only did they price match it, they took another $3 off! He got Dead Space for $6.99! Lucky.

I hope that if they ever do a PS3 or Wii sale like this, it might be a little easier to pick up the games in the store.

[Opopanax]

No copies of Dead Space left at Coventry Hills in Calgary, luckily I ordered in store pick up this morning.

And for anyone looking for PoP, try Superstore. I saw a special edition there for $18 the other day.

[zoro69]

I hope that if they ever do a PS3 or Wii sale like this, it might be a little easier to pick up the games in the store.

Sadly it wont be if there is "TIV"

You can order Dead space on FS website. They have 93 copies left and I believe it ships to US as well. Give it a shot.

[Grease_Bits]

Nice. 1.99 is cheaper then gas money.
Edit: Ah never mind, they don't take the Store Credit Card online dam! Guess I'll just wait until they restock.

[uutf]

Ugh. All over town and no cheap Dead Space. Lower Mainland FS's are cleaned out, and so was the LD I attempted a PM at. I did score Fracture for $8.99 after a PM w/ BB.

[Zeitgeist]

No dice for Dead Space at any of my FS stores. So five minutes before closing I went into Wal mart and they actually PMed it with zero hassle or anything. I even got to use my soon to expire giftcard. Excellent day.

[rtooby]

There was about 10 copies of DS left at the dt Victoria store around 5pm. I didn't see any LO though.

[game_fanatic]

Man, what a day. Before work I headed to my local FS, picked up Fracture, Prince of Persia, Battle of Britain, A Bridge Too Far, and all 9 Bond steelbook Blu-rays (accidentally bought two copies of Live and Let Die). Headed over to my local BB before work where I had a copy of Dead Space on ISPU, picked that up, price matched, and 10% of the difference taken off as well! Don't fret yet my friends, this is after all the first day of the sale. PMing is the key! Cheers.

P.S. At the end of the day, my wallet was $180 lighter :'(

[cm matty]

i picked up my copy of dead space and lost odyssey this morning (i ordered them on wednesday). the girl working said there were a lot of orders for dead space last night that she filled this morning. i think i got the last LO in the store. traded them in (along w/ ninja gaiden 2) for batman: AA (which will be switched to left 4 dead 2 at some point).

great deal for everyone. if you need a game for trade 3, this helped, and if you want an amazing game, this works even better. dead space was in my top 5 from last year (possibly top 3).

thanks again for the heads up.

Yeah Dead Space and Lost Odyssey were totally cleared out at the FS downtown and at the Cambie BB. They might restock though: the sale's on for a week.

[Traced-Velocity]

I'm hoping to do a PM of Dead Space at the Coquitlam Best Buy tomorrow.

Anyone been there and remember how many copies there are left?

[collector42]

Thanks OP! Managed to pick up Dead Space yesterday and went for the difference today. South Edmonton was wiped out, or they hid the stock. By 8pm I could not find any of the 9.99 games left. bought some bond though...

Man, what a day. Before work I headed to my local FS, picked up Fracture, Prince of Persia, Battle of Britain, A Bridge Too Far, and all 9 Bond steelbook Blu-rays (accidentally bought two copies of Live and Let Die).

Look at it like this: you picked up 2 copies of the best Roger Moore Bond movies, making it 2x better than anything else you did today XD

I was there earlier and they hadn't marked down any games. My copies of Bolt and Thrillville still say 34.99 on them so it could be they were there somewhere but they didn't stand out.

[Corizzle]

When I picked up my order of Sing It and Fracture I noticed they had put away Sing It: High School Musical 3

The box art is almost the same so the clerk was probably confused. I'm not really complaining as it's still $44.99. The clerk adjusted the price to $19.99, don't think she even realized it was a totally different game.

[lt_homer]

Mass Effect 9.99$
LOST ODYSSEY!! 9.99$
DEAD SPACE 9.99
Too Human 9.99$
Fracture 9.99$
Stranglehold 9.99$
Thrillville off the rails 9.99$

You're unlikely to get a bite. They're prettymuch sold out everywhere, and we're getting a TIV of ~$25 from EB on em with the Trade 3 deal up here. So yeah, you'd need somebody genuinely nice to fluke out and find copies who would be willing to give em away. Now if they were actually readily available...

[imcrazy]

Was able to grab a copy of LO this morning. Thanks for the heads up op. I've been waiting forever for this game to drop in price. Now if only Folklore would drop too...

[telepathy]

Yeah, forgot to say thanks OP

Also, how my day went (cause everyone wants 2 hear *sarcasm*), is how i managed 2 PM dead space at BB, where one of the service clerks was thinking wtf w/the FS flyer & tried to confirm supply but failed to use their website. Then manager on duty also showed up & went wtf is w/this shit & tried (& failed) to call the nearby FS to confirm stock. They eventually gave up & just gave them to me for $6.99 + tax. Sadly, i rly wanted to PM Lost Odyssey but apparently some dick came & cleaned them out of them before i got there (damn waking up late). So i ended up taking a 1 & 1/2 hr trip to gloucester to pick up my copy that i was going 2 use to PM but failed.

Morale of the story: Reserve everything like a prick so no one can get at them before you. At least that's apparently what a lot of hoarders did. I really wish some ppl left some copies of games around so they could at least be PM'd.

[Firestorm]

I picked up the LO I ordered two days ago =)

[CHW]

So do people really just go buy new copies of these games, open them, and turn around and trade them in at EB/Rogers/BB for TIV? I admit it's somewhat tempting, but it seems like a waste of a perfectly fresh new copy of a game...

[maigoyume]

Yeah Dead Space and Lost Odyssey were totally cleared out at the FS downtown and at the Cambie BB. They might restock though: the sale's on for a week.Buddy of mine works at landsdowne FS and even he had trouble getting copies. I'll keep you guys updated if anything shows up. Having access to the inventory tends to help :)

You could swap it with a crapped up box you have at home so that one of your games looks nicer on the shelf! :lol:

[WillGabriel]

Great success! I did in-store pickup at West Edmonton Best Buy and they gave me a price match on Too Human, Dead Space, and Lost Odyssey for $10 each. There was a manager and a trainee there and they just checked prices off of Futureshop's web site - no stock checks.

I assume that they'll just match Futureshop no questions asked for smaller purchases--since obviously they're sister retailers and have a close relationship. You might run into troubles if the clerk is an ass or if you're trying to buy something big like an out-of-stock TV or computer.

[dancrane212]

All my stores were cleared out. Thankfully a new FutureShop is opening tommorow or the day after, and it has all the games in stock. I put a "pick up in store" order in for 2 copies of Dead Space*and I just recived my "You got it" e-mail"

*Just to clarify, the other one is for a friend not for TIV.

[Shazyzang]

I'm hoping I can get Dead Space, Prince of Persia, Mass Effect, and Lost Oddyssey today, but it looks like chances are bad.

[musdy]

Success at Wal-mart for Dead Space, didn't call FS to check stock.

[game_fanatic]

Well looks like the TIV for BOTH Dead Space and Lost Odyssey dropped below $8 today, so those wanting to actually play the games shouldn't have any problem buying one off of RFD/CAG/etc.

[Shazyzang]

I went today and got PoP for $20, they had nothing else. I tried a Toys r Us price match on Mass Effect since it was all they had, but they had to call the store and I couldn't get it for $10. I'm gonna try bringing the flyer to every game store I'm near, I think I'll be near a Zellers and a The Source tomorrow.

[poiuiu]

Well looks like the TIV for BOTH Dead Space and Lost Odyssey dropped below $8 today, so those wanting to actually play the games shouldn't have any problem buying one off of RFD/CAG/etc.

I'm glad this happened sooner rather than later, cause I made sure I beat the hoarders around here and grabbed a few so fellow caggers here (especially those who can't get it due to said hoarders) can enjoy Dead Space (no LO unfortunately). Hell, I sold one to EB manager friend already and smiles all around.

Anyways, to the rest of you CAGgers, I have 4 copies of the game; send me a PM if you want it. Depending on shipping, it'll be 15 or 16 bucks.

Other stipulations to make sure these copies are for those who want to play it rather than returning them to Walmart or whatever inlcude:
Me putting a thin cut on the security sticker/s to split them but nowhere else on the game; other than that, the game will be new and sealed with original folding wrap.

For anyone interested, just holler; also paypal only. I'll give details if anyone is interested.

And no, before you lynch me, I'm not a hoarder; I genuinely grabbed these for caggers who actually want to play the game.

[thegamecubist]

Recommended this for a friend...I already have the games that interest me . Hopefully he can find them, or, at the very least, get a price match at Zellers or EB or something.

[Kekumba]

I have all the games (minus Dead Space), but I noticed the $9.99 shelf of games at Future Shop today (Kanata) was pretty empty. I also noticed another guy looking around for copies of them that might be scattered about (at least, I think that's what he was doing).

[Afrodiziak]

I knew this was going to happen. I'm actually surprised EB jumped on it so quickly.

[Lockescythe]

LO finally will not be 54.99 used at eb anymore then?

Because that was seriously ridiculous. Everywhere was selling LO new for 40 and EB still had the dang thing at full price.

[seed84]

so with the tiv dropped now hopefully the rest of us who actually want to play dead space and lost odyssey may actually be able to get a copy if fs restocks this week

[j940651]

it might still be tough while DS is worth $18 at BBV.

Hah, Lost Odyssey is out no matter where I look, except for an RCSS-- but they wouldn't price match. Damn.

Probably not, EB's TIV don't correlate directly with their selling price the way that FS or BBV do it where it's directly related. They take some games in for $25 and sell them for $29.99 and others trade in for $1 and sell for $29.99

[Furashu]

can i have a copy to trade into goozex... im #1 in line for dead space .lol

[Lone_Prodigy]

LO is actually $44.99 new at EB.

[j940651]

$19.99 used at BBV

[Talus]

Anybody having any luck with pricematching anywhere besides WalMart? My local WalMart doesn't carry most of these $9.99 titles.

Try Zellers I was able to PM there

[Talus]

Great, I'll try that! Thanks!

[Talus]

Ok .. that worked. I picked up all 3 games I was looking for at Zellers :) Too bad I already bought Mass Effect and Dead Space ... but there was NO way I could have waited this long to pick those up!!

Thanks!

[scourdx]

Looks like FS is restocking their games. Check out your local FS for copies.

Yeah that's what they told me when I stopped in there to get Dead Space today, the women that runs the gaming dept in my local FS is really knowledgable actually.

[Afrodiziak]

Quick question: I bought a copy of DS at Walmart for $40 but I didn't have the FS flyer with me. If I go in with the FS flyer will they refund me the difference back? It's still sealed

[Talus]

I imagine they would. Otherwise, return it for a refund and then buy it back with a pricematch.

I know FS has their price match guarantee for 30 days, but I'm not sure about WalMart.

[Bencherstyle]

damn.. i would jump on Prince of Persia for 19.99 if it was on the ps3.... perfect price of that game... aw well, ill just pick up prof. layton for 29.99 FS and wait on POP untill x-mas :)

Hey guys, I picked up two copies of Dead Space today from Futureshop. I'm keeping one for myself, and am willing to sell/trade the other one for the same price I got it for to those who couldn't get in on this deal.

Go to Start -> Control Panel -> Keyboard I think it is. Then check the key you have set to switch to french keyboard and set it to none. Or remove your French keyboard.

[Xfactor19990]

would someone be willing to pick up Dead Space, and Mass Effect. Ship to colorado, how much in USD?

[Magentis]

A couple days ago I looked all over but nobody had LO in stock. Had to pick up something at Staples and by chance they had it on sale for 20$. Good enough for me :)

[gamer602]

you know, staples has a pm policy...

[telepathy]

anyone interested in a copy of dead space around ottawa can ask me since i picked up 2 copies. 1 for myself & 1 to trade off to some CAGer. Would trade it for one of these games if you are so generous:

Star Ocean 4
Infinite Undiscovery
Last Remnant
Battle Fantasia
Guilty Gear 2 Overture
Lost Odyssey
Dead or Alive 4

After taxes and shipping, it'll be over 20 bucks US anyway so you might as well try to find a cheap copy for yourself.

[TripleQ]

Looks like they are restocking periodically online and in stores.. some local stores have DS and/or LO available to pickup today.

[chrisryans]

My Dead Space and LO shipped today, now they'll sit on the shelf until I finish up Fallout 3, inFamous, and Valkyria Chronicles haha

[Skinkybob]

It helps when you know people who work at Future Shop... of course, it also helps if you bother to go to the right location where they've put aside the game for you...

[dave17]

well this one cheesed me off pretty good. I checked the online availability a few times this week and finally found it with 2 remaining yesterday so I put it in my shopping cart. by the time I enter my credit card info and try to process it there were no copies left. blurgh!

I could be wrong, but I don't think the online stock # changes until an order is placed. Two people got their CC#'s in quicker! Does suck though, thinking you have the game, only to lose out on the checkout page.

[Skinkybob]

This has been quite an ordeal for me. My friend gave me a text when Future Shop received new copies of Lost Odyssey, and he put one aside for me, but I ended up going to the wrong Future Shop. Once I got home, I went online and ordered it for in-store pickup from the store it was supposed to be at. Unfortunately, the order was not filled, I'm assuming because they had one copy left and it was hidden away for me somewhere. I saw overnight that they seemed to gain stock again, so I placed another order, and when my friend got there this morning, he found the game he put aside for me and filled my order with it. Now I'm trying to find Dead Space...

[scourdx]

The Futureshop online order isn't great. I placed an order for Dead Space and it still said they are shipping once they have them instock. I ordered it last week when the website said they have 100 copies. I waited for almost for 1 week and nothing. So I cancel the online order and go to store and pick it up.

[No One]

Looks like I won't be gettin' Lost Odyssey.

[Skinkybob]

Well, I went to Future Shop and got the copy of Lost Odyssey my friend left for me. I also picked up Spider-Man 3 for no reason in particular. While I was browsing, I noticed that they also had Dark Sector for $9.99, so I picked that up, along with a used copy of Burnout Paradise for $15. All in all, I'd say it was a pretty good trip. I've also got a copy of Dead Space waiting for me at another Future Shop. :bouncy:

[thelaughingman]

For those with rainchecks, start hunting for the game soon! I just came from my local FS and they claim that the warehosue is totally empty and has 0 Dead Spaces in stock. Which means the game is going to be OOS by the time the remaining Dead Spaces make their way to your Futureshop shelves!

[waterboy99troop]

you guys are lucky if you got LO from FS... my store ran out last thursday (someone web pickup'd the last 4 copies) and never got restocked... i can't even get it for myself... i'll just have to make do with my staff-purchased used copy (which is still ~$20)...

[Afrodiziak]

If you did get a raincheck and if you can't find stock within the next 30 days, make sure to renew them. You can keep chaining them together until stock actually does start hitting stores again.

[Shazyzang]

When does it end?

[TripleQ]

When does it end?

Yesterday.

[uutf]

Whew, I PM'd the last copy of Dead Space from the Georgia and Granville London Drugs. I did it before FS opened so they couldn't call. It was a gutted display copy, but I really can't complain for the price. I just noticed that the flyer says prices in effect June 5 - June 11, so I guess I got lucky. Huge thanks to the OP!

[broccoli]

I was lucky to pick up a copy of Dead Space in Hamilton today.. the only copy sitting around, and it had the 9.99 sticker on it still, so I got it for that much..

[ducksoda7]

After doing PMs at different Wal-Marts, I managed to get 3 copies of DS. One for me, one for a friend and one to trade in for EB's T1G1F. Unfortunately, EB JUST changed their TIV for it from $15 to $7. Fortunately, though, the guy working there was super cool about it and accepted it anyways. So, looks like everything worked out perfectly. =)

Hey duck, this is kinda OT, but I noticed you said you lived in Winnipeg in another thread.

Did you do the T3G1F at EB, or is T1G1F a different promotion? I ask because I went to the EB here on Kenaston to see about doing T3G1F for Infamous, but the clerk told me that while EB does still do that everywhere else in Canada, they can no longer do it in Winnipeg because of the by-law. Just wondering if you might be able to shed some light on this.

I sort of mistakenly typed T1G1F when I meant to type T3G1F, but even that's wrong. In Winnipeg, it's now called T3G1 for $.99. It's the same exact promo, but now they charge you $1. No big deal.

Secondly, you have to check out different EBs, because some of the employees are completely clueless when it comes to how EB's promotions work, particularly at Kenaston. Check out the ones at Empress and Polo Park. The employees there are pretty cool guys and know what they're doing, especially Rob and Harrrison from Empress. Also, if you're unable to do it at one of the two locations, you can try the other one since they're really close to each other.

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. =)
