I live in Canada. In lots of retailers I've been to, new/semi-new releases all cost 69.99 for weeks, even months after release. Is there any store that sells them for 59.99 and doesn't sell out in the first day? Thanks.

I'm Canadian and almost everywhere I go everything is $59.99...except Quantum of Solace which is $70, but don't worry I bought it when it was $60 (unfortunately) :P

I would look for games on ebay as they're usually cheaper: http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&campid=5336266345&toolid=10001&customid=&ext=xbox+360+games&satitle=xbox+360+games

dude its a way of the times, exchange rate and the us economy, expect i but as a fellow canadian i find blockbuster sells the games new usually at par with US. Stay clear of best buy and future shop. Even Walmart has games cheaper than BB.

i got WAW for 59.99 when it came out and now its 70 at bestbuy (was 64.99 at time i got it), they may not have every game but enless u want some obscure game, thy will have it.

Im talking brand new not used, so that will answer what i assume to be ur next question.

ebay will still bone ya with exchange rate and shipping, ebay sucks for canada i think

I'm buying used from EB Games now because I really won't pay 70 for 1 game. Used it will be 55-60 which is.. better.

Games are $70 in and around Vancouver, BC now I believe. My friend didn't want to pick up RE5, but after a 12 hour co-op marathon, he thought it was worth it.

$hitty dollar, though. I bought Gears at about 80 (that's with tax), then a few months later, stuff drops down to 59.99. Then again, Best Buy has marginally better prices than Futureshop, and that's only if they have a deal going on.
