Apparently (according to posts on Gameplay's own forums) they're canning their on-line magazine, 'Spank' and have got rid of all the staff that write it. They're just keeping the news and reviews - no more editorial content.

It was a stupid name anyway...

Tony is right EB does own game, this is more evident in Dundee than anywhere else as the shops share staff!! And the fact the the game website has EB plastered on it!
