http://www.computerandvideogames.com/33 ... ck-issues/ They really do deserve to die on their arse - if it's not £40-45 games, seriously overpriced/tragic 'trade-in value' games, it's the staff asking you if you need any help ![]() Gamestop will become an online endeavour only, FYI... If/when HMV bites the dust, I think the supermarkets will be about your only realistic alternative re. brick and mortar stores. I'm just wondering how it'll affect supermarket and online prices in the long run ![]() I could see eBay getting flooded with more games than usual... |

There does need to be some competitive pricing or some kind of exclusive deals for me to want to walk in to the likes of Game. Why should I have to drive to town, park up, walk my lazy ass to the high street all to buy a game. Fifteen years ago, when the internet hadn't really taken off, it was a great way to spend time - browsing through a computer store, trying out demos etc. If I'm walking past Game, why would I step inside? |

Banks throw GAME a lifeline http://www.computerandvideogames.com/33 ... -lifeline/ Once the leases are up on some of your UK stores, sell those n'all ![]() |

I bought Skyrim from Game recently... Then I went to HMV round the corner and saw it for £10 less than I had just paid. So I went to return it to Game and bought it from HMV instead. I don't think I've ever found a game in Game that is cheaper than anywhere else. I dont' expect it to be cheaper than Amazon or Play.com etc... but at least some other high street store. Also, why would I buy a trade-in game for £29.99 when the new game is £24.99?!?! (I have actually seen this). |

I only bought Skyrim from Game because they were selling it at around £24 last year - as opposed to the regular “might as well call it city quid” mark. |
