The biggest for me is the lack of content that will be avaible in canada.Very soon americns will be able to download full movies like the 360 however this service for the time will only be for the states.

Not sure how to respond... Possible lack of support for paid downloadable content pushes it into the 'I can't believe others want this system' category for you? Fair enough, I suppose.

Can't find it on their site, can you post the link please.

man.. it's not that hard

here it is

and i imagine they will allow you to checkout with one if you are one of 10
that hour

Poolshark, about the 12 lining up at Wal-Mart...

Does this mean all 12 of them will be related (since it's such a small place)? If so, be the thirteenth in line and use that "1 per family fineprint" to threaten the manager...

;)

thats part of the email i rec'd

Just thought I'd give a head's up, since I haven't seen it mentioned here...

HMV stores that already carry Video Games should be getting a couple PS3's each. (it's up to you to figure out which HMVs in your city will have them)
They didn't take pre-orders, so it's first come first served. I know staff members aren't allowed to get them with their discount, but I don't know if that means they won't be buying them at retail prices. It may be worth a shot to hit up your local HMV. I'd do it, but I can't be bothered to get out of the house at 8am. Too early for a late-bloomer like me.

i called the local hmv on robson to see if i should go line up and the guy said not to, they dont expect em tomorrow. i called around my local hmv's that carry games, none of them could confirm they are getting any of them tomorrow. the stores that carry games said they should get a few, but dunno when.

The Toronto Superstore (HMV) should have them tomorrow, according to a very reliable employee there. At least one manager here in Calgary said that he was anticipating 2 units, but that was on Monday. I forgot to give him a call today to find out if they arrived yet.

Guys, is Future Shop selling them online at 8:00AM like Best Buy is?

Hey at least you can SEE the sites now! I can't even get them to open up! :p

Couldn't even get to Bestbuy.ca at this end. Future shop loaded.... logged in hoping that would help. Never saw it go anywhere but "Sold out"... gave up after 5 minutes.

Anyone out there get one on-line??

Saw this a lot at Future Shop:

"Thank-you for visiting FUTURESHOP.ca. The site is currently undergoing scheduled system maintenance to improve the quality and speed of your online shopping experience.

I actually got so far as 1 in my shopping cart with the green checkmark for shipping before I got the same message. Really, really frustrating!:mad:

Zamu.... now that would have sucked!!!! Bloody hell.

Had one in my shopping cart from future shop then the site crashed, now telling me item is not available and needs to be removed from my cart.
