I'd just point out that GAME owns Gamestation, too.

If the company goes down there will be no dedicated game outlets for a while, unless somebody new enters the market.

Whilst "normal" game releases wont suffer here you have to think that special editions and the like will fall in sales whilst there is no dedicated gaming stores.

I cant see tesco or asda stocking many (if any) of the Star Wars 360's for example.

Most Tesco/Asdas don't stock much outside of the top charts. Though that may change with Walmart buying some GAME assets.

I mean, it doesn't matter much, thanks to the Internet... but there was something I quite liked about walking into a game store, just thumbing through all the old games, picking up a bargain for a couple of quid.

When I get dragged into town/malls to go "shopping", GAME was my only escape!
