GAME has started stocking EA & Nintendo titles on its website, with in store stock expected to appear on shelves during the upcoming week.
Nintendo title Pandora’s Tower has appeared on the GAME website, though it will only be for a limited run. Pandora’s Tower seems to be the only Nintendo title stocked since January, which seems to suggest that the publisher is testing the waters before fully committing to supplying more titles to GAME.
EA seems to have more faith in the high street chain’s recovery, with GAME’s website now having Mass Effect 3, FIFA Street & Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 all available for purchase. This is all good news for the GAME brand, though other publishers, such as Capcom, seem to be staying away for the time being.

Pre-owned stock must be low as there offering an extra tenner when you trade-in 3 games.

Gamestation are offering the same, makes me wish I had bought a share or two….

Actually no you don’t :)
Game Group got de-listed from the stock exchange so anyone who had shares would have lost them.
Unless your talking about something else :D

I with you completely. I don’t think I’ve bought a brand new game from er, game in years and with the lacklustre 2nd hand offering there at the moment I don’t think I’ll be racking up any more game points for the time being.

Superb, great news for the guys and girls who keep their jobs. Free market capitalism is a slag!

I really hope the game group pulls through,we need a high street game store,but they need to make serious price changes to do so.I went into a Game shop the other day to buy some vita games but the prices are just ridiculous. £45 for uncharted, i can buy it online for £32. £40 for Virtua Tennis, i bought it off shopto.net for £22.85.Of course online companies can sell cheaper,i don’t mind paying £5 more as i can have the game there and then,but £15+? No thanks.I understand it’s early days for the new owners but surely it’s better to sell more at less, than less at more, no?

I feel the same. £3-£5 more expensive to have it there and then I am perfectly fine with.I hope they do start with the thinking of ‘Sell more at a lesser price.’ It will work wonders imo.

I’m kind off pissed they’re pulling through, I was wanting an other company to rise up and take over. But I’m still a bit upset about losing my job. But still I’m happy for the lower tier workers.

Are you able to use your reward card now on all stock yet?

I’ve been shopping, well by me I mean my mum since the Electronic Boutique days. I hate change and I’d be sad to see them go. Good to know they’re coming back, hopefully there will be cheaper prices like they had back 10 years ago.

Looks like it will all be back to normalish soon….

Actually, they’re currently pushing the fact that they’re selling Mass Effect 3 and it’s 24.99

They (and by they i mean the uppermangement) seem to have learnt nothing from their problems. The nearest game to me is in a large out of town shopping centre with a massive Tesco under the same roof and yesterday Game had mw3 for £44.99 in Tesco wa £25.00 saints row was £39.88 in tesco was £21.79 kinect star wars was £39.99 in Tesco was £32.79 and in Asda this is £27.00. I could list about another 10 games where the same applies.
Unless they become at least competitive they will suffer the same fate again in less than a year.
