For Canadians. I highly recommend you keep an eye on this twitter user https://twitter.com/Lbabinz Expand Spoiler for embedded tweet feed. Also I'm not sure if shoppers is going live tomorrow or not but keep an eye on this site (if like ps5 you'll select what store you want your system sent to for pickup). https://www1.shoppersdrugmart.ca/en/food-and-home/xbox-x

The Thread of Corporate Bankruptcies

I highly recommend taking your 2nd or 3rd choice retailer as your target. Bots are going to be all over this. Sucks but is the nature of a limited launch. So target the Walmarts & Targets before Amazon/BestBuy.

Television Archer S14 - The Final Season
chakoo replied to Spork3245's topic in The Performing Arts Centre
I dropped out during the noir season. I might jump back in for this one. I wasn't entirely sold on the dream seasons but felt they had their fun but by the noir one I didn't really care for the story anymore and wanted it to go back to being more like the early seasons. -

General Gaming PS5 Digital owners (or soon to be) let’s chat
chakoo replied to maddux4163's topic in The Spawn Point
I'm in canada, I never was in japan (just import a lot). I did have a japanese launch vita but i'm pretty sure I didn't get a 3G (memory is a bit fuzzy on that one, plus I sold it to a coworker a few years back because I had too many vitas and needed to cut back some). -
Sony PS5 Pre-order successes and horror stories thread!
chakoo replied to Mr.Vic20's topic in The Spawn Point
I did, I actually might have two on reservation now. Another Canadian retailer (shoppers drug mart) put up units for preorder last night though a somewhat messy setup but I was able to grab one and get a confirmation number. If this one does stick I will probably keep this one because the store has an amazing reward system. For my switch lite I was able to get $130/140 in store credit (which I can use at their chain of grocery stores). my other DE preorder is through Wal-Mart Canada. -
General Gaming PS5 Digital owners (or soon to be) let’s chat
chakoo replied to maddux4163's topic in The Spawn Point
Nobody needs proof that I like physical media (if you do, see the retro forums). Yet with that said I pre-ordered the Digital Ed ps5 for many reasons. 1) the cost was far more palatable after tax $563 vs $712. That’s more than a game for me. Sure I can afford the difference but I have other things I want to buy. Hell at $712 I probably would hold off and buy at a later date as I have tons of other things to play anyways. I don’t need a ps5 but it’s part fomo, part I always get a new system at/near launch. 2) Psn doesn’t charge tax here on digital games. So they end up cheaper at launch. 3) I actually bought very few physical PS4 games, Like less than 10. Yet I do have access to quite a few digital games. 4) PSN has had great sales on games all the time. I’m actually seeing better deals on psn than retail half the time. 5) My game/retro collection is getting too big and I’m getting low on space so not having ps5 games around saves me space for something else I can’t get digitally. Those are some of my reasons. When needing a ps5 with a drive comes, I will just sell my DE unit and buy the drive model but by then ps5 will be cheaper and probably a lot smaller too. -
Looks in decent shape but also looks to have some water damage at the bottom by the looks of thing. You two are going to have a blast with it!

Senate confirms Justice Handmaid One
chakoo replied to SaysWho?'s topic in The Political Re-Education Camp
Oh wow I totally got told off by a dead person who died to let a president who has been eroding the country’s laws with help from Barr put someone in who will continue to destroy this country. yeah no fuck her, she still bares responsibility for this. This damage will erode her legacy and she deserves it. -

chakoo replied to SaysWho?'s topic in The Political Re-Education Camp
So should we start taking bets on who trump nominates? I’m expecting a pretty vile choice because nothing matters anymore and he will want someone with their lips far up his ass like Barr. It’s amazing how fucking worse things can get with trump week after week. -

Sony Target is a go for preorders PS5!! Now!! Go!!!
chakoo replied to maddux4163's topic in The Spawn Point
Yup. Best of luck to all who want one. I have no desire to buy an S/X atm but I’ll try to help with keeping tabs on stock for Canadian board members that do when they go live. -

I look forward to the PS6 being as large as my TV itself. Since my unit is digital this might be the first console that goes behind the TV by default so I don't see it. -
Sony Spider-Man PS5 Remaster won't be Free Upgrade for current PS4 owners
chakoo replied to JPDunks4's topic in The Spawn Point
We can also stop acting like what is an exception is actually the norm when it isn't. Nobody seems to care that the Xbox 1 version of COD has no path to upgrade to the Series X version of the game unless you buy the Series X version of the game that gives you access to the XB1 version of the game. I do on a personal level think it's good business and keeps your titles selling to offer free upgrades in the first place but I don't discount that it's not cheap/free to make the update either so not every dev is going to run out and do it for free.
