Forums - Gaming - Anyone else loathe GAME?

I will never go to Game again, When i got my WiiU i wanted to get a copy of ZombiU. I went to Game to price it up, and they had it at a whopping £54.99 WTF!!! I eventually got it from Grainger Games for a more respectable £40. Im not surprised they got into trouble recently, they ripped us all off during the boom years so this is Karma for them.

Whenever I buy a game new, sealed in box is a demand. It'll have to be very cheap for me to go with a new copy of a game, that has been opened.



Yeah i much preferred gamestation but they are gone now, so i just go wherever is cheapest. Blockbusters is probably one of the best shops for games in the UK now, they rarely run of stock for any game. Like, i tried to get Max Payne 3 after Christmas, but no one had it until i checked Blockbuster, who were the only one's to have the game i want. Hopefully, they won't go anytime soon. It's quite depressing seeing major shops shut down for good.



Xbox Series, PS5 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

I like game I buy most of my games and I've bought most of my consoles from there too.

I always said I should go to blockbuster more since I got a game from there but it sucks because the 2 in my area are both closing down now :(

Yeah at this rate, Game will probably be the only game shop left, as Blockbuster and HMV could close for good, not good really.

I know right, didn't hmv get saved recently though? I think I read something about the company who bought out the Canadian hmv stores had saved some if the uk stores.

Yeah HMV is fine for now, but even Game nearly shut for good (last year at some point). No shops is safe from the bad economy right now it seems.
