My preorder with Futureshop just got shipped today, so hopefully by Wednesday I'll have it in my hands. Lucky for me, Wednesday is a bank holiday, so I'll be home sweet home all day!

Way better. Spec Ops alone is worth the purchase, multiplayer isn't as bad as people make it out to be with the perks, it is the same except for the 4th streak you get a "care package" which can be a variety of things. It is much different though, I really suck at MW2, but I am pretty good at MW1, it's weird.

And I have done 4 parts of the campaign and it is pretty cool so far.

Definitely liking the game.

Is it a holiday in Calgary? I was thinking for once there was an advantage to working at a financial institution .

I think it does ship from Mississauga. I'm about 30-45 mins drive from there, so I'm hoping it comes tomorrow. I got the e-mail saying it was shipped out. We'll see. I'm crossing my fingers!

blah, couldn't get out of work last night at midnight. I thought the Marlborough Walmart was still 24 hrs, but they must've changed, now 7am-midnight. I'm about to call them in 10-15 mins to see if they have any...

Anyone know if there is better place to purchase the game in terms of pricing?

So far I'm seeing Best Buy, Futureshop and Toys R US have the PS3 version at $59.99. Anyone know what other places are selling it for? (EB Games, Walmart, Super Store, etc.) I imagine that they are all similar but thought I would double check.

Thanks
