Highlight of this week's Canadian PSN deals is easily the Rockstar sale, including GTA V on PS4 for the equivalent of £22.75.
I created a Canadian account a few nights ago for Firewatch, and took about 20 minutes from scratch. Here's how:
1. created a brand new Gmail address
2. created a brand new PSN account using my browser, with some random Burger King in Toronto as my address, and verified via the new Gmail account
3. signed up for a brand new account on PCGameSupply and verified via text
4. bought $20 CAD on PCGameSupply (via PayPal) and waited a couple of minutes for the code to pop up
5. set up the new PSN account on my PS4, and set my machine as primary (it actually prompts you to do this)
6. went onto the PlayStation Store, and redeemed my code against Firewatch
Up'd + respect for putting how to set up a Can. account!

Anyone else think it was 21 games for £22.75?

Not stupid at all to anyone with a basic understanding of hardware architecture.

Thanks for the GTA trilogy heads up. Looked and it was $25-30 on the weekend. I would of got GTA V, that's an awesome price. But the save file won't be compatible with my current one.
Finally made my Canadian account a few days back, I'd held off using the 'two's company, three's a crowd' analogy beforehand (already have UK and US). But the $2 CD to £1 did it for me.

To me it emphasises why it's worth holding on to your older consoles, especially the PS3! The games are never going to be compatible on PS4 and from what I can make out whenever PS5 comes out that won't support them either because of how complex/incompatible the last gen system was.
Funnily enough I've actually been oohing and ahhing about a solitary red 500 gig with two controllers bundle I've seen sat in a shop close by to where I'm located in Austria but I can't justify the €299 tag, if it was €199 I'd have snapped it up straight away.
I go in there and/or look on the retailer's website daily to see if they doing any kind of deal as I will be down there in a shot. I just hope being patient pays off because if someone else grabs it I know I'll end up regretting I didn't get it, even at the higher price it's sat on now.

Should go down again though. The Canadian Dollar continues to rest heavily with that of oil, therefore like oil prices it will go down. Has only been a few pence difference to be fair.

Thats what the rrp should have been from the start especially as they are awful ports.

My save file is from a UK disc copy. I wouldn't think that would work with a Canadian digital copy of GTA V. That's unless I've got that wrong. Can anyone confirm either way?
