McKenzie is sold out unless you have a preorder.

What are my chances of getting it at 5PM tomorrow at HMV downtown, would it just be best to head off to North Hill and get it from EB?

Some d-bag in line in RD was trading in games. Set us all back a good 10 mins.

Finally got my copy. There is already a patch and tuner set.

Gonna be a fun night.

Not sure. I have my copy pre-ordered and paid in full. With NHL 10 I was able to go into North Hill EB and buy the PS3 version on day one at around 4 or 5 in the afternoon with no problems.

Are you serious? Did the crowd whoop his ass and yell at him. I am surprised the employees even let him do that, my EB Games wouldn't let him, they'd laugh and kick him out.

He was very loud and obnoxious. Kept dropping F bombs.

When he was trying to make up his mind about what games to trade in you could smell seething all around.

Walmart employees always seem to act like you've asked them to cure polio whenever you request them to do their job (at least in the electronics department).

Got mine from blockbuster in Cochrane at noon. Too bad I won't get much of a chance to play until Thursday.

Nice to see they finally fixed Stajan's name. Too bad there's no heritage classic jersey for Calgary this year.

Oh my god.

Just played my first HUT online. Outshot him 29-7, only won 2-1.

I tied it in regulation with 8 seconds remaining. The ref waived the goal off, but the went upstairs and the call was over ruled. Then 30 seconds into overtime he pinches, misses a pass and I spring Pavelski on a breakaway and score the winner.

This game is aaaawwwweeessssommmee.
