Futureshop generally has better deals than Best Buy, their employees seem nicer as well.

No. Not here at least. BestButt is better for deals. Futureshop employee's get a commission. BestButt employee's don't.

Hey guys, I can't give specifics for certain reasons, but you need to check out Rogers on Boxing Day. Just trust me on this one.

Why bother? Those hoarders from RFD already took care of all of that. Apparently, the promo has been up since yesterday. There are even tales of people going in and leaving with 56 games...why? just to resell those on Kijiji, definitely not to play.

If your laptop has HDMI then I'm pretty sure the PS3 has an HDMI port. You would need a cable of course, I recommend this thread for your HDMI cable inquires. 

http://forums.n4g.com/Anyone-need-an-HDMI-cable-m872949.aspx

If your laptop has a VGA/DVI (which it most likely does, most laptops made within the last 5-7 years do) then you can get an HDMI to VGA or HDMI to DVI adapter. And please, don't use VGA.. it's embarrassing. VGA needs to die already.

No. That won't work. It would need HDMI in for it to work, not HDMI out. There is no laptop made yet, that I know of, that has an HDMI in.

Uhhh...... I think HDMI works both ways. Not sure.. don't quote me on that. I think you'd need 3rd party software/hardware to run HDMI in through your laptop (like a capture card) from PS3 or other source, since usually it's only used for output to another monitor/tv. 



[EDIT] Derp, what TMan said. Just ignore me, it's midnight and I'm sleepy.
