It came out of the blue that the newspaper 'News of the world' Are doing great offers for conlose games. Example,

DIE HARD: VENDETTA on SR: £36.99
DIE HARD: VENDETTA on News of the world offer: £34.99

Other games such as Fifa 2003,

Sr price: £38.49
News of the world offer price: £37.99

And a popluar game like Star wars: Jedi Knight 2 - Jedi outcast

Sr price: £36.99
News of the world offer price: £34.99

All this does come with Free Post & Packing to on all orders.

Now they an't big savers but its best u are going to get specialy when you trying to find the best deal.

I just suggest for those haven't seen this yet either go out and buy the News of the world to find this booklet inside because there an't no website for these quite amazing offers.

Is it a small chain or just a stand alone shop?

Yeah, gameplay.com are pretty good for offers as well and sometimes you can even see Toy'R'us doing cheap offers! Amazing. Gamers have never had it so good. Games at £35? I remember when I paid £70 for SF2 on my SNES when it first came out!
E-Bay is a great site for game especially USA releases. There's a Canadian shop on it that sells game pretty cheap (buy two at once and get a fiver off/fre shipping). That's where I got my Wavebird controller from about 5-6 months ago. The guy is very reliable so if they ever released the goddamn freeloader, I'd be laughing!

Oh, I have to make a special mention to the Wavebird controller. It is brilliant. I want to get all four for my GC!

I bought mine there, too. I saw the price and just bought the Memory Card there and then.

If there's ever a game I want to pre-order, then I will always pre-order it from SR, because they have always been so damn reliable. Also, I always buy my new PC games from SR, because they arrive quickly and are cheaper than in the shops (I know Play has them £1 or £2 cheaper, but they arrive 5 days later if I get them from Play). It's a shame that SR don't sell DVDs anymore, because they did have a huge selection, but I can see why they stopped, as Play was so much cheaper. They still sell some fantastic DVD players though.

theres a brilliant shop called OSB (One Step Beyond) in Norwich, near where I live. it sells all games for under £35. They have a huge selection of 2nd hand games all for £25. they have a huger selection of N64 games all of which are between £5-10.
I love that shop.

I was in my local town yesterday, and there are two GAME shops very near each other. One was selling Starfox for £45 and the other for £40.
