I was hoping someone could clear this up for me. My local EB game locations are telling me that the PS3 version of Dragon Age is coming out on the 17th. I was under the impression that the release date was pushed up to the 3rd for a simultaneous release with the other 2 versions. Is it possible that the Canadian version is in fact still coming out on the 17th? Or is it more likely that they haven't updated their systems. They haven't received the shipment yet either. It would be a pretty big bummer if in fact it is still delayed in Canada because im pretty psyched for this game.

Ok a few things here, buying at EBGames is wrong, stop it.
 
second of all, they're also ignorant because its releasing at the same date for all platforms in north america, and Bioware, being a canadian developper, certainly thought about Their own country when they announce a release date for their game, right?

" @demonbear:  Yes, that's why I figured, but they were throwing me off. I agree about EB though. It's just that there's no other stores, at least around me, that would actually know better. "

Come on guys, you only need a Walmart, or a Futureshop or a Best buy. Screw EBGames. If you have a good pc, Steam is the real deal. If not, amazon.ca is also great!

It might vary from location to location. I pre-ordered it back when I picked up my Uncharted 2 pre-order (they changed the price from 69.99 to 59.99 so I got 10$ leftover), and they told me it was coming out on the 17th. But just a couple of days ago I stopped by to pay off the rest of my pre-order, and they told me the date has changed and it'll be coming out on the 3rd. This was at Adams Center in Niagara Falls, if it matters.
 
PS: Don't bother buying at EBGames unless you have lots of credit, doing a T3GIF or some other promotion, or have a gift-card.

There's actually a Wal-Mart right by my place. I usually head to HMV though. If i'm lucky enough, they're usually selling the games before their supposed to due to some employee mix up. I found infamous a week early at HMV.

I recently stopped buying games at EB here in N.S. when I listened to the guy at the counter try and talk a trio of 5 year olds into getting the extended warranty on the new Smackdown game for the wii they pooled their allowance money for...
 
With that being said, like others have stated, the game will be out the same time here as it is in the states. Just grab it at futureshop or walmart or something.

EBGames is the devil. Personally I use Amazon.com. They guaranty the games arrival on the day of its release. Got UC2 in my loving hands at 10am the day it came out. Plus they gave me a 10 dollar credit for pre-ordering it wit them. In any case I am off topic so i shall stfu now.
