Anyone find FS-X in Canada ?

Thunder Bay, Ontario Future Shop. Got the deluxe version early this afternoon. Checked in the morning, they advised the truck was expected in mid-morning, to try back in the afternoon. Sure enough, salesperson advised they weren't sure if it was supposed to be held until later in the month, but the display said October 5th, when I picked it up.John Haley

Well, the EB Games in Ottawa all have the Standard Edition, BB and FS are still waiting for their shipment. If it was in London, Ontario, early this morning, and Toronto this evening, chances are Ottawa stores will have it (Deluxe Edition) by tomorrow afternoon.

I paid $83.62CAD for the Deluxe here in Whitehorse Yukon from staples!

Toured my local Best Buy, Future Shop, and EB Games in Winnipeg early this afternoon (or might have been late morning), nada.Went again 5-6pm to Best Buy, and there was the stock guy with a whole bunch of FSX copies on the cart, rearranging other games to make room for the new stuff. Don't think I was the first to do it, but I got it directly from the cart, before a single copy ever made it onto the shelf... :DToo bad, by the time I get enough stuff burned onto dvd's to make enough room for it, probably won't have time to try it out tonight.... :(

Note Detroit folks ... come and get em ... there were a bunch of both Standard and Deluxe on the shelf ;)A little choppy on my machine so far ... but i can definitely see the potential. Man i was like a kid in a candy store ... you should have seen my face when i picked it up off the shelf .. :)Steve

YES!!! FSX HAS ARRIVED IN OTTAWA! Only a few more hours, until I get off work 'till I'll get my greasy little hands on a shiny new copy of FSX Deluxe. I'm so happy.

It is in stock at best buy literally across the road from CYZD for $79

When I tried 2 gigs of ram I got error messages and CTD's in FS9, so I had to go back to 1 gig. I'am running a 6800GT and everyhing is set to default in FSX, but good for you that it's running well.Cheers from CYVR,

Ended up with OCZ ram...no troubles whatsoever. >Cheers from CYVR,Cheers from the turn into the CYVR Localizers....North Delta. :-)FaxCap

>Cheers from the turn into the CYVR Localizers....North Delta. :-)I'm just east of you--at the beginnings of Cloverdale, on the way to CYNJ. I wonder how many of us are here in the Fraser Valley? It might be fun to try to meet....
