I have £7.50 on my reward card, guess I should start looking for things to spend it on.

I have £7.50 on my reward card, guess I should start looking for things to spend it on.

I have my ME3 CE PC version pre-ordered at Gameplay.co.uk...
They still claim that there's nothing wrong with Preorders until April, but this recent news have me very wary. If they don't follow through, i'm basically screwed out of the CE, as there none to be found

Amazon and play.com are getting all of the stock that was allocated to game, so they have the n7 edition of ME3. Pity I have no cash.

Yeah, but Play has it at 80€ (PC verson, PS3 and 360 at 95€) and Amazon.co.uk still hasn't put it up. Fnac is stocking them as well, might go and change my pre-order to them.

Read this this morning and immediately ordered from Play
GAME's prices online aren't too bad, especially when you consider the great delivery (day before) and reward point discounts. Luckily, they have put my SSX copy in the post, but I am think I am going to save my reward points for the inevitable closing down sale in the coming months
But I really do think that this is the end, they can't really keep going if nobody trusts them, and they can't even stock the biggest release so far this year!

Thanks for the find
. Hmmm, it's almost the same price as on FNAC (with delivery rates included), so I might get it here (at least i'll get it on release date that way as well).

I can see gamestop buying it out before it closes, try to produce a better business model too as this one obviously isn't working. Grainger Games on the other hand is expanding, if Game falls, Grainger will be the main suppliers for high street games shops in the north.
Maybe smaller independent games retailers are the way to go.
Hmm, pie.

Well, where I live atm, the only other places that sell games are supermarkets, which have about 20 games, and HMV, which is also in dire conditions, so I do hope that gamestop keeps dedicated high street stores alive, but as far as I can tell, they have similar models, sell used games!
So I just received a reply to the email I sent last week to Gameplay asking about the status of the ME3 Pre-orders. They aren't stocking them as well.
Thankfully I cancelled with them yesterday and have pre-ordered through FNAC.
