I didn't know they had VII in the store :o

Think I just might buy that along with some Rock Band songs, now that they FINALLY have PSN cards in Canada...

Metal Gear Solid 1 was recently released for PSN. What they need to do is release Metal Gear Ac!d one and two. =P

I was in EB the other day and I saw them in their lil' behind the counter cabinet...

Bought a 360 arcade for $150 and traded in 4 old crappy DS games and got $74 off... I still have them too cause I bought a DSTT and put the games on that lmao

Yea, seems as though only EB Games has them but that's all good. Wolfenstein 3D was a lot of fun to play again. Didn't think it would be so popular.

And yea Morreale, seems sorta obvious, just hinting to Sony that I would buy more if they opened up :P
