HMV were always overpriced, even back in the 80's selling LP's (vinyl) for £6.99 or £7.99 when the going rate was £4.99. However the trade off was that they stocked rarer harder to get titles, back then there was no WWW or internet retailers if you wanted some obscure solo album.
It will be a shame if game go, I remember when they first started up around 1993 or thereabouts. Up till then WH Smith believe it or not was probably the hotspot for buying games, either that or you went mail order from Special Reserve. However they're not helping themselves. Swindon has two game shops plus a gamestation plus the Debenhams outlet. No need for four locations.
The sad thing is if they do go it will be just more empty shops in the town centre or at best taken over by gold buyers or people trading dodgy secondhand cellphones.
