    Doncaster is the store i work at is a standalone store 🤙
    People are buying less physical games and game makes more profit from toys and merch. They have moved into sports direct because they are part of the fraser group and also no need to pay additional rent with them being in sports direct. I just wish game wasnt tucked in a corner and be more at the front of the shop.

    The GAME in Stevenage is still a separate store, and yes it has games on offer, as described here. A small selection of Switch, which is what I collect for. Mainly PS4, a big selection, and some X Box, I don't have either console, probably would be worthwhile if I picked up for trading? Might be worth mentioning there is well stocked CEX about 2- 3-mins walkaway. There is a Sports direct it's literally two doors down from the Game store.

They got absolutely rinsed the first day it was 50% off when I didn’t realise it was a thing (no posters saying 50% off), but I did get a stack of stuff still later in the week.

    I picked a couple of decent bargains while I was at my "local" one the other day. Tiny Tina's Wonderlands PS5 (chaotic great cover), Blood Bowl 3 and Dark Pictures Little Hope for £12.
    Not the best bargains to be had, but I'm going to hit up the same shop next Friday when I ain't skint lol, and just see if I can get myself some okay priced games.
    I've conceded to the fact I won't be getting any of the proper titles like GOW, GT 7, FF7 Rebirth, you know them kinda titles, so I'm happy to to just take advantage of "fair" prices.
    I have been hearing on Hot UK Deals that some of the shops are genna restock, since they still have 1000s of games left apparently, so they'll have them shipped from their warehouses, but no idea when, guess you either have to pop in their shops every day, or just chance it when you can and hope for the best.
    Like I said though, I'm happy with whatever that is on offer, as long as I'm after the game. Hopefully everyone else can get in there before the resellers do, including myself 😂👍🏻🤞🏻.

      £12 like you said is definitely a bargain for sure, £4 a game especially for a PS5 title and a couple PS4 ones.
      Only evidence I've got that the restocks might be true though, is the other night I saw them add RE 4 remake back into stock on their site in the PS5 section. So when they eventually cycle through all their stock, hopefully a couple of the heavy hitters make their way to the shelves again 😂.

      CEX muscled them out of the market due to a few reasons.
      1. Better Trade in System- Way better than GAME when they had one, and you can trade in a variety of stuff, even PC parts.
      2. Variety- So much to choose from in CEX from PS1 to PS5 and much more, and a great way to build a collection
      3. They don’t focus on merchandise- From games to electronics, where people can use them on a daily basis, unlike board games etc.

      It seems that GAME is simply getting smaller and smaller until the point of extinction. I think it’s mainly down to the lack of retro and now the lack of trade ins, thus people go to CEX.

      Another thing, a tonne of scummy tactics to make money. The biggest scummy example was Game Care. (Insurance for consoles and discs.)
      It was borderline useless and they made a lot of money from it during the 360, PS3 era, due to the red light of death.
      I don't want get into all the ins and outs. However, just know this.
      That sales assistants got nothing for it. (Once in a blue moon, you got a free game.) You'd get nothing exept for keeping your job. As you were targeted to do it.
      Game, if they had kept the model of Gamestation with retro. Game could of been a completely different store right now.
      Maybe, even could of cornered the market before CEX had a chance to think about it.
      I'm glad they didn't, trust me.
      I shudder to thing what they would be charging right now. Trust me when I say, it would of probably of been double the price and sod all trade in credit. It's the truth, as that is what they always have done. Screw over the little guy.
      Regarding Mass Effect, man that was depressing at the time. People were spitting nails at us and we had nothing to do with it. As Game at the time said they would pay EA after they got ME3 and sold them. EA called their bluff and said p*** off. Then pulled all future releases until Game paid EA what they owed. Then the dominoes started to fall, mostly all the big names wanted there money and Game just didn't have it. Pre-orders couldn't be sold and Game went into free fall.
      I was there at the supposedly last day of Game closing down. I was going to be made redundant. Then another company bought them at the last minute, paid all the debt and we all had our jobs. With barely any apologies from up top. It was back to normal the next day.
