Default Where can Canadians download games?

Hello!

So I'm intent on spending this Sunday doing as little as possible and would love to dedicate the day to a good adventure game.

None of my area stores have anything good in stock and I really wanted to just download something that I could play instantly.

Unfortunately, the only place I'm aware of that a Canadian can do this is our wonderful Adventure Shop but I've played most games there (except Darkness Within, which I've heard such mixed reviews about).

Any other Canadian-friendly sites? Thanks!

Can't you use Gamersgate.com or Gamesplanet.com?
Of course there's also Kheops..

Yes! I think I posted this prematurely. I think I had GamersGate confused with GameTap. Now it's just a matter of choosing which game to download. I saw Belief and Betrayal and Overclocked and got all excited until I realized they're not available yet.

Now I'm debating between Jack Keane, Destination Treasure Island or something else.

If it's a matter of a game to play on a lazy sunday, then I can recommend both of them

DTI is available at the Adventure Shop, you know.

Yes. I noticed that. Anyway, I settled on Jack Keane, which I've just taken a break from. It's a nice change compared to recent games. I downloaded it from GamersGate, though they're selection is pretty limited. I'm just hoping Overclocked is available there soon.

I'm posting too late for this Sunday, but all of Telltale's games are available to download from most countries, Canada included.

Link!
