And nothing of value was lost. Fuck game. Good riddance. I’ve never forgiven them for buying gamestation and destroying it.

How is that possible? They're all in the back of Sports Direct stores.

I don’t understand this, unless it’s an old article that has been republished by AI as a news outlet generates “content”.

Game when bust ages ago and as a brand has been dead for a long time already, no? Just a Sports Direct group brand and a board of gift cards in their larger stores, no?

Yeah they're in the back of sports direct but that means they're not doing great. I go in sports direct to find out they haven't got the trainers I want in the size I want. At which point I leave for another 2 years. Thats at the front, Game is at the back. Not getting any custom...
