I regretted not going in last year. There was a line up but no ads so I thought the people were nuts - but then I heard about the deals and regretted not popping in.

EBGames?
Since EB usually doesn't have a flyer, you're left with having to go in-store to find the deals.
Last year, there were all kinds of discounts on used titles, and a bunch of games at $0.99 (last year it was red faction, onimusha, and a bunch of others).
The question I have, is does anyone know what time EB opens on boxing day? For the life of me, i can't remember what time it was last year.

Yes, i believe all EBs do it. And i'm not sure if they put up any $0.99 GBA games, last year it was only xbox, gamecube, and ps2

Also, the question is still open, if anyone knows what time they open on boxing day? Reply With Quote

Yeah, having one close saves the trip. With me, walmart, EB, and Zellers are all within a minute or so of each other. So it makes my major boxing day hits quite easy.
I've been trying to track down if any deals have been leaked on EBgames for this years boxing day. Sadly, I haven't been able to find anything. Reply With Quote

Though my post is slightly off topic I figure I'd pass this info along anyway:
EB Games in the States and now that includes the former "Game Stop" stores as EB Games has bought out Game Stop, regularly have used games for as low as a buck. As well they often discount their used controllers and accessories to as low as a buck.
Whenever I am in the States on vacation, any time we pass a store we stop in and rummage thru the bins.
Usually we get rewarded for our efforts!

A bunch of random games at $10, that's all. And they were all old titles.
The only decent thing i seen was Act of War for the PC for $10. But i'm sure that game is budget anyway Reply With Quote

For anyone into videogames. Did you notice how HORRIBLE all the boxing day deals were this year? I couldn't find a single good one anywhere. (other then snagging Genji for $10 on Amazon.ca)
Last year I remember coming home with like 10+ games. This year I bought 2 Reply With Quote

I found a couple of GBA games I was looking for over at Amazon.ca. Certainly not zany deals, but some in the $9.99-$11.99 range, as well as NFL 2006, which I hadn't found on sale.
