I live like 20 minutes from anywhere and work from 12 until 9 on release days anyway so I don't get to play it until then, so Amazon works great for me, guaranteed release date shipping and no charge for shipping and no tax

Fair enough.

I did take GTA Release day off though so that's why I'm getting the redbox version Tongue

I have a free code for a day and then I get the game later on through Amazon :D

I have never heard of redbox before. Is it an American thing?

It's these big red boxes in grocery stores and stuff. You get DVDs or games or whatever from them.

It's a box that's pretty much the replacement for Blockbuster and Video Gallery and what-not, they're big red boxes that are put outside things like Wal Marts or little convenience stores, they have all the new movies and big name games (They have Madden, Diablo 3, Splinter Cell, Saints Row 4, Fifa, GTA this month for instance) and you just go through the point and click process on their screen and pick your movies/games and then swipe your credit card and it gives your movie/game

Movies are 1.04 a night
Blu-Ray's are 1.54 a night
Games are 1.99 a night

But if you sign up for their text club you get like 3-4 texts a week of free codes for movies and games. Danielle said they had something similar in Canada but I don't remember the name

Weird I have never seen anything like that and I have recently lived in Ontario and B.C. If something like this was being implemented in Canada it most likely would have started in Ontario.

Yeah that's where she's from is Ontario. It wasn't identical, it was an actual store and you went in and did it inside of a store but it was just strictly movies. I'll ask her later what they were called

But yeah they're great Tongue

If you ever get one in Canada try them out, I don't remember the last time I paid for a movie or game but I have seen pretty much all the new movies that have interested me
