Wow, that Gamestation is crap - get in there ASAP or there'll be nothing left.

We have no Game now so i don't buy from them online either anymore. If they can't support this area at all i can't support them.
I just use Tesco's now as sadly the Truro indie slapped a fiver on everything since Game went under and HMV are rubbish.

The GAME near where I work is actually really good - they seem to have PC stuff reduced all the time - got a massive haul yesterday, all for 98p each - including Metro 2033 and C&C3 + expansion.

I was at uni in Wolverhampton for 5 years and I can count on one hand the number of times i've bought anything from there.

Wish Game would re-open round here. Now its a choice between the limited selection of HMV, or paying the outrageous gamestop prices.

If I wanted to shop online I would. I like buying on the high street.

There is literally no reason to prefer that unless you don't have a means of paying online.

Well I get employee discount in HMV. I prefer giving my money to real people, and taking a game out of the shop with me, rather than ordering and waiting.

I disagree. I also enjoy walking into a shop and buying the game there and then, as opposed to ordering online and waiting an unpredictable amount of days.

Personally I enjoy paying a tenner less for my games online and having them delivered a day or two before launch.
