Amazon looks like it will only let you purchase one PS4 as a limit.

Wish the pre-orders were up at Best Buy or Future Shop right now.

I would pre-order the PS4 right now, still might get the XBox One at launch since some of the games impressed me but don't want to support them right off the bat after their BS.

That was an epic show by Sony. Crushed the competition, went right for the jugular.

Jesus, Amazon.ca is already sold out (try to add it to your cart).

When it comes up on BestBuy and Futureshop - jump on that. Hell, you can probably make money on it you want to flip it.

Well, that was a great day of video gaming fanboy news! Cool press events and games to see all day. One of these days I'll have to get a pass and get into E3.

Nice to see the ultimate winner today though. The gamer and consumer.

My god, that part when they announced the used game portion and no online authentication, and the crowd was giving a legitmatte cheer and applause, that was just awesome. Screw you microsoft.

And then the $399 hammer. My childhood favourites of KH and FF, man, they blew it out of the park for me today.

I was initially thinking I would wait several months for the first price drop and to see how the two systems are received before buying one of them.

Sony delivered the smackdown today so much that I might just preorder the PS4!

Pretty funny that one of the most highly touted features is something we've had since the dawn of gaming.

I hope the Xbox one fails miserably. Consumers need to send the message loud and clear that draconian DRM is unacceptable.

Wow, so happy to hear about the used games and the price point. Can't wait to get my hands on one.

Come on Microsoft, even Ubisoft recognized DRM did nothing and only served to agitate consumers in the end and Ubisoft was one of the most anti-consumer companies for awhile.

Wiki edits are going nuts right now.

Need to go to sleep but with the way these PS4 pre-orders are going I am concerned Best Buy or Future Shop are going to throw them up online randomly at midnight and they will sell out

Looks like amazon.ca and ebgames.ca are already sold out.

Amazon.com will ship to Canada but I assume Best Buy and Futureshop are going to get hit hard tonight/tomorrow.

www.xboxdone.com will get you there. $9 cheapest shipping and they properly charge you GST - you shouldn't have to pay any additional duty. There will be the conversion exchange and the shipping time though.

Maybe do that as a placeholder. You can always cancel if you happen to get a bestbuy.ca or Futureshop.ca order in.

At worst there is also gamestop.com. Though they are only selling bundles it looks like.

I'm really really hoping with the pace of the pre-orders Sony can make these things fast enough for launch. I pre-ordered 2 PS3s at launch back then and didn't get one of mine till two weeks post-launch.
