Bye Bye Game!

[4T5]

I asked in my local & the Dude said it's all just gossip, they have 150 mill p) in the bank & are just selling off a load of old stock.

 

[Strife212]

The whole company is only worth 4.5mil on the stock market!

The gaming service was a service provided by Gameplay. I think it was called WirePlay. It was fun while it lasted. It had some kind of multiplayer aerial dogfighting game which was a laugh to play on dial-up

AIR ATTACK! Best dial up multiplayer game there was.

Sheffield city center has 3 Games/stops. 30 secs between #Station and one of the 'Games'.

No need for more than 1. Not difficult to see why they are failing from other peoples comments on daft internal competition store locations.

Heard similar at my local "It's all media hype".
Like I say, my stores full of stock, but has no customers

If I worked there I'd be getting pretty annoyed at everyone circling like sharks around my shop

I reckon that would be overshadowed by the prospect of not having a job soon.

That what they have been told to say if the bank balance was £150m then they would have paid up front for all the console stock they can no longer secure on credit. Capcom have joined EA in no longer selling to GAME unless paid upfront which means at least 3 big titles GAME are missing with PC & console launches of SFxT, Resident Evil ORC + 6.

£1.50 sounds more accurate

I picked up GRAW2 and Alien Vs Predator for £1.98 each yesterday. Those we the only two PC games worth getting really.

 

[valkynaz]

Went into my local gamestation to see if they had anything on sale and all seems to be normal really.

Its a shame, don't need more people out of work.

I liked the staff at my local game...Decent PC offers but none that interest me should stock up on 3DS games really but oh well, or 360.

So i take it they have SSX, Kingdom of Amalur and Mass Effect 3 in stock then?

Oh no wait, they don't.

 

[~Divine~Wind~]

My lcoals still have massive, what appear to be hand put together ad's asking for SSX, ME3 and SFxTekken for trade in lol

Exactly, it's just the employers clutching at straws/lying.
I already know this.

Maybe the best performing stores this week survive? lol. I may still get some shares because someone is bound to buy them out. Imagine play.com stores??????

Can't believe i've just thought of this. Origin shop. Full of win right there for consolers

 

[shephga]

If they're going to be bought then it will be once they go into administration. If bought now the new owner would pickup the liabilities and issues game have now. Buying frOm admin would allow them to take on what they want.

 

[djkav]

Rumors are that Wal*Mart could be eyeing up GAME buyout.

 

[Evilsod]

Yeah I can't see the logic in that at all which explains why the story has no source at all.

OpCapita Has Offered To Buy GAME

Dammit, they might need a helping hand going down, brb, grabbing petrol bombs .

Maybe driving a bus into the store window trick will work.... Loads of chavs will loot
