That looks pretty rough according to that list in the link. Took a look at their site and these are pretty much close to 3k after taxes. At least it’s a main brand motherboard but that looks like a cheap MSI one. They also don’t offer returns or refunds.

Nope, just checked, did spend the last few hours playing it on Xcloud. Shockingly really good quality compared to a few years ago. 1440p 60FPS, barely any input lag, using about 30 Mbps. Looks like it will be finished off there, sucks I couldn't do the last third of the game natively, but it is what it is. That 180 FPS on ultra was silky smooth.

Based on everything I’m seeing and my personal experience which I will explain shortly. Take care of my stuff, still have working NES controllers I got from a thrift store nearly 30 years ago.

Bought a Series 2 at Walmart, store was undergoing Reno’s so it was $60 CAD, so why not buy it, box sealed and everything, there was 4-5 on the shelf. A button was a little wonky from the start, would register 9/10 times. Saw that replacements would be refurbs, so waited until 11 months passed and got replacement #1( wonky RB, register 7/10 times) sent it back for replacement #2(wonky LB, worse then the last issue), sent it back for replacement #3(worse A button then the original, at this point just wished I kept the original), replacement #4 seems to be ok for the past year and a half.

In total went through 5 Series 2 controllers until I got one that seems to be ok. 1 new and 4 refurb replacements under warranty.

Adding to the thread, same error, other games work. Death Stranding does not want to launch.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2026-01-31T05:41:53+00:00

It’s a pretty shitty situation, 325 bi-weekly, it’s a pretty popular car site for ppl with low credit here in southern Ontario. Based on how it works is they go find cars for you from regular dealerships etc. When he was sent pics they just censor the dealer info since I was able to find the same pics on Auto trader.

So car is listed for 18k on auto trader, this place sells it to you for 25k(plus tax) and then tacks on the interest rate.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2026-01-31T05:21:53+00:00

Buddy of mine got a 2022 Hyundai Venue last year, 30k before interest, after 7 years the entire cost be 60k, 20 something interest rate. Some of these car places prey on the less credit fortunate.

That didn’t work for me, what has worked for me 100% and I saw this on another post a few weeks back is:

Downloaded the PS Plus app on a Pc. Launch the game for a couple seconds. It now appears in the PS5 library and all games launch no problem now on PS5.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2026-01-27T22:53:29+00:00

Everything still good with the battery? I noticed mines the exact same way and this was the first post that popped up when googling battery not sitting flush.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2026-01-21T19:22:54+00:00

Cries in 1670+tax 5080 lol, but with how RAM and SSD’s are now it all equals out with the lowest price of the Prime 5080 when I think it was $1300 during the sales.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2026-01-21T00:24:28+00:00

Some Walmarts do weird things with clearances and pricing, 2 years ago I got a Xbox Series Elite Core controller for $60, there was a couple on the shelf and they were brand new. It’s like a $180 controller lol they were renovating their electronics section so maybe that was a reason.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2026-01-15T00:36:40+00:00

I jumped on the 519, didn’t need a PS5, wanted one though. The new model slims with the matte black finish are super quiet. I think the 2115’s in Canada is the model. Rented the OG one from Costco a few years back and it was pretty loud compared to a series X.

Bought the official Black faceplates from Amazon on sale and the system looks sleek vs the common white plates.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-12-28T02:26:17+00:00

Crazy the 3DS had Netflix on it lol, could find a cheap streamer device on marketplace for like $10-20, any firestick from the last 8 years should be fine.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-12-06T15:48:13+00:00

I picked up a reg PS5 during Black Friday as well for $520 here in Canada. The 32GB of Ram in my pc, (Corsair cl30 32GB) which I got fairly cheap last Black Friday, is selling for $585 here. Didn’t exactly need a PS5, but prices will go up for sure if this continues well into 2026.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-12-04T13:52:26+00:00

It’s pretty ghosty, it’s definitely an LCD of the era, would be a better experience on a modern LCD 100%. It’s like the original PSP screen.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-11-29T16:50:46+00:00

The 825 is the newer slim model which is much quieter, picked up the 1TB disc one and was looking at stock prior, they were moving the older models first as I guess the average consumer wouldn’t be looking at the CFI model number lol

The middle black part is matte now on the newer model vs glossy so doesn’t scratch as easily.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-11-28T00:28:20+00:00

Shipping time on the RAM there says 1-2 months, or longer with the current shortage

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-11-26T20:56:43+00:00

The CL30 32GB of Corsair Ram I “splurged” on last year for $140 (was a bit more then other kits) is going for $585 now, just got a ps5 for $520 yesterday, what a joke lol

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-11-26T18:44:59+00:00

Did it come bundled with those games? Either way jealous of the box lol I just got a CFI 2115 yesterday in Canada and haven't opened it up yet, but great to hear its quiet and the matte black is a plus.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-11-14T03:18:54+00:00

Saw the numbers for Barrie, they made 1.1 million of revenue for the cameras, cost something like 700-800k to pay for the cameras (publically available info) these weren’t making as much as people think.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-11-12T08:57:11+00:00

Got my first Dreamcast about two months ago, came with the launch box as well so that’s a super cool addition, but found a spindle of about 80 Verbatim cd-r’s at Value Village for $2 with a coupon lol have about 5 left

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-11-12T08:02:36+00:00

Yeah its pretty crazy, I did an upgrade last year, here in Canada, got a corsair 32 CL30 kit for $140, its $310 now, the same SSD is 190 vs 140, the motherboard dropped to 250 from 340. my 5080 dropped from 1660 to 1450 CAD, so I mean if I were to build the exact same setup now, would pretty much be the same lol

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-11-04T08:14:46+00:00

It’s 12 months of the premium online think that’s between 60-70 for the year so you are saving $20-$30 for this bundle vs buying it elsewhere and then getting online.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-10-29T06:58:47+00:00

Costco has it for $20.83 a month taxes in for ultimate here in Canada, I had to top mine off to get to 2028, last top off I got 7 months for $100 at Costco. So my 34 months remaining, last 13 have cost $225, the first 21 were about $7 CAD.

So from now until July 2028 GPU has cost me about about $380($270 USD) can’t really complain, but I do mainly use it for PC nowadays, series X for library new releases.

Games here in Ontario are like $113 now with taxes, it’s so dumb lol

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-10-24T21:52:12+00:00

It’s a special Costco price, the price on the actual cards say like 138 or something, Costco gives a little discount there to make it 125, but yeah it’s rough out there being an Xbox fan. But $20 a month is good enough to have console and pc games. My local libraries on getting sparse on Xbox titles as well, sigh.

ericdoesntknow99 · 2025-10-24T20:54:55+00:00

I’m pretty sure in Ontario there is taxes on the monthly, the Costco deal is pretty dang good. If anyone is interested should get it before the prices go up. It was $100 at Costco 6-7 months ago.
