If you’ve been holding out on buying an Xbox 360 for the last five years until it drops below $150, and, um, you live in Canada, you’ll be totally psyched to hear that the Arcade bundle of Microsoft’s console is currently on sale in the great white north for just $130. The Xbox Canada site lists the price drop for both Futureshop and Best Buy, though we also found it over at Amazon Canada and GameStop Canada . Get ‘em while you can! We’ve followed up with Microsoft to clarify whether or not this is a permanent change for our Canadian friends, and, of course, if we’ll be seeing a similar sale/price drop in the US.

Metal Gear Arcade , which has been sneaking under the radar since its unveiling last June, is playable at Japan’s AOU Expo this week. To mark the occasion, Konami has released a new trailer and two new screenshots of the Metal Gear Online -based arcade cabinet. The trailer is available on the game’s website . Konami has also provided a first look at the 3D glasses used to enable the game’s “Integral Vision” effect. It’s going to be totally worth putting on those goofy glasses, even after some sweaty guy just used them: not only do they create a 3D effect, the glasses also enable head-tracking.
