Game station [the only other major games specialist in uk], has been bought out by GAME-
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/gaming/a460 ... tores.html
So that leaves one [unless small ones with a lot less shops like CEX are included].

Why are they allowed to get away with this? game station was far better than GAME,it was the same when they bought out EB as well.
Game central said there is a new shop brand[?] coming to the uk later this year called play-n-trade,they're opening up one shop and then opening up others around the country.
GAME used to be better than it was as well,am remember when they used to sell graphics cards,but they were as useless with them as pc world are with pcs.

:( GAME stores are a rip off too, you can get anything much cheaper just about anywhere else... if there's anywhere else left that is!

i used to prefer eb, was much lighter and less confusing inside, game is dark and depressing and overloading and hasnt changed!

If I buy new games, I buy them on the net as they are far cheaper than high street stores.

I buy used games in Game, Gamestop etc.

I still buy games from GAME mainly, but only because I get GAME gift cards and my mum has a GAME card.
