GAME Store - Not quite as good as GameStation

Advantages: Friendly Staff
Disadvantages: RRP Prices, No Offers, No old games, Low Trade In Prices

Since I did a GameStation Store review, I thought it would be only fair that I do a Game Store review, since they are the UK’s two biggest retailers specialising in console and computer games. To start off I’ve got to say that I don’t feel as ‘close’ with Game as I do with GameStation because I didn’t really warm to Game’s Style and pricing, which I will discuss a little further in. I will also be doing a bit of Game vs. GameStation in this review ...
...basically in competition with each other. Also just like in GameStation’s Review, I’ve gathered by experienced from the local Game Store and the few other Game Stores I’ve been too. ===Variety=== Game like GameStation offers a large variety of new and old PlayStation 2 & 3 games as well as Xbox and Xbox 360 games, not forgetting the all important PC games and portable console games like PSP and Nintendo DS. There are also gadgets for the consoles ...

An excellent game shopppers website paradise

Advantages: Great products range, excellent design and navigation, simple to use website, quick delivery
Disadvantages: Can be more expensive than other game websites so as always shop around

...a fairly regular user of game.co.uk and have never had any issues with their website. This is a well designed and very user friendly website which is simple to navigate and purchase from with a large variety of products available and many special offers on the site regulary. If you are a true shopper then I would always advise to look around at prices (you can sometimes find good prices on different sites from time to time) but I have found that ...
...what most other shops offer but you have the ability to collect points when using the website which can be redeemed on future purchases to get money off (if you are pre-ordering an item then your points amount is normally doubled so I would advise to do this if there is a game you know you are going to want) and if you go through www.quidco.com to get extra cashback on your online purchases. Delivery is always quick and the items are securely packed ...

GAME

Advantages: User friendly
Disadvantages: Prices are usually very average.

I have always shopped at the GAME store in my town center for video games as I have always thought they have very reasonable prices and always have excellent deals on. The GAME website is no different. The website is well designed making it so easy to navigate and find what you want. Its also really user friendly making it easy for anyone to use. The prices here are quite reasonable, although they are normally priced the same as most other gaming ...
...You can purchase a GAME Rewards Card for only 4.99 and for every purchase after you have bought that card you will be rewarded with points. When you have gathered enough points you can then exchange them cash to be taken off your next purchase. Also, when you pre-order a game you get double the points you would usually get when just buying one. Also, when buying games, the payment is quick and they normally arrive within the first 5 days of purchase. ...

game.co.uk

Advantages: Choice between brand new and second hand, Reward Card loyalty, free delivery
Disadvantages: Expensive lifestyle choice

...of playstation two Games from Game.co.uk in the past I was very pleased and satisfied with the Delivery time taken. There is also a Help topics section which I find good to read through this. I thought the Question and Answer sections good as they contained the companies' privacy statement, Secure Shopping, Payment options, Delivery times and so on. Though the useful part of this is that clicking on one of these sections just produces a set of answers ...
...Box icon under each sub section of Question Categories which is hardly effective in terms of design. ==Other website information== A Store Finder is located at the top of the Website enabling the user to locate the nearest branch through searching either a town or via postcode. The website then brings up the Store detail's along with a Map, address and Telephone number of the three closest stores if needed. A Reward card is available for customers ...

Game On!!!

Advantages: Great service with a great range of games at decent prices
Disadvantages: Some of the older game aren't available, a fairly expensive past time

...Online Store The game.co.uk site is very good in my opinion as you can easily search and find what you are looking for very easily and everything form the format to the genre is organised into easy to access menus. he site also contains quite detailed information on each of the games and a helpful review section. From personal experience ordering from the online site is very good delivery is exceptional and often if you pre-order a game you will ...
...online prices are nearly always cheaper and often if you search around you can find discount codes that give you even more money off of your games which i often do. Reward Card The game reward card is a very handy little addition that will save you alot of money in the long run. It will cost you £3 initially but that will soon be offset by the money saved. Fro every £10 you spend you will receive 25p worth of points so will quickly add up if you ...

Beware Premium Rate Customer Service ONLY

Advantages: Good range of Product if you receive it
Disadvantages: Dreadful PAID customer service. They need to look at their competition.

Dreadful, Awful and quite frankly disgusting. Sent me the wrong product, I orderd Shaun Whites Snowboarding but they sent me Wall.e. As my delivery sheet said Shaun White the local stores refused to help me leaving me no other choice then a PAID custmer service line, to report their mistake! I tired to call it but was on hold waiting for over 10 mins in which time they charged me several pounds with their 0871 customer service lines in the end I ...
...never received a response from. I used to rate this company and have bought several items from them, I will no longer be purchasing from them at all. Please think twice about ordering from this comapny online. They have great prices but if they don't deliver they are worthless. ...

Overall game.co.uk is a very good site - the experience is enhanced though if you have an account and reward card - as you can earn money off games - be entered into competions - write reviews - not have to enter delivery details every time - and create wishlists. Things that would make the site better; More preorders. More frequent deals. Quicker deliveries Better packaging Overall though I must reccommend play.com over this ...

Great for all your gaming needs

Advantages: Easy to use, wide stock, get up to 11% off, free delivery
Disadvantages: Can be expensive, not many preowned games online

Game is a big games brand no doubt, but is it actually any good? In my opinion Game are very good and have a wide selection of games on their website and you can pre-order the latest titles online so you can get it as soon as the game is released. Their website is very easy to navigate and find the game you want quickly. You can also get a Game reward card which rewards you for your purchases and you get double the amount of points online than in ...
...to deliver your game for you (for free at the moment) or you can pick up the game in your local store. Also if you order on the internet you can get discount codes and up to 11% off through cashback sites such as Topcashback or Quidco. Also the prices tend to be cheaper online. The only disadvantage is there is not a very good selection of pre-owned games online so go elsewhere for the pre-owned games because they do not tend to be much cheaper ...

Game.co.uk offers serious value

Advantages: Excellent reward programme, Impressive discount vouchers, Fast delivery
Disadvantages: Often have overpriced bundles

Game.co.uk is one of the best value videogame selling websites on the Internet. -- Prices -- Game.co.uk usually beat their high street store prices when it relates to selling games, however games console prices tend to equal their store prices. Their preowned game prices online appear to be slightly larger than their store prices. -- Preorders -- This is a major selling point. You can preorder a game and it is delivered in time for its release ...
...other benefits of preordering below. -- Reward Card -- Like other stores, Game offers a very helpful reward card which is very beneficial to the consumer. For example they offer, double points on preorders (when using the reward card online, you can save £2.00 to use on another purchase. (£1.00 for a normal purchase). -- Delivery -- Game offer a 1st class delivery service, you can receive your goods in 2 business days for free. In my experience ...

Game. They don't play around with delivery times.

Advantages: Fast delivery. Easy to navigate the site.
Disadvantages: Hard to find a list of pre-owned games that are in stock.

I have shopped a number of times in Game in the highstreet but this time, I decided to try their website. The site is fairly clear, easy to locate what you want (most of the time) and before long I was browsing their games. They offer pre-owned and new games and I was looking to see if there were any bargains to add to my order. This is the first failing in the website. There are plenty of pre-owned games at good prices in the categories and search ...
...see that they don't have any in stock. This makes finding pre-owned games a little more time consuming, unless you know exactly what you want. Delivery is free at the moment to the UK, so no hidden costs buried as many websites try to do. No suprises here. On ordering, they do offer you a Game Reward card. This costs £3 to buy and allows you to save money on future purchases. I opted not to use this as I don't buy many games, but for those that ...

Game high street store

Advantages: Good selection of gamesoftware/hardware
Disadvantages: Expensive compared to other places to buy games

Game store is one of only a couple of dedicated chain video games shops in the UK the only other one that springs to mind is Gamestation. The stores are usually well stocked up with the latest releases for PC games and the main consoles from Nintendo Sony and Microsoft. There is also normally a good selection of used and preowned games to choose from. Although the price of a preowned game seems way over priced in some cases where they will only ...
...experience although a quick way to get rid of unwanted games is that GAME will not give you all that of a fair price. For example they might let you part exchange a game for 15.00 but then sell it on for 30! But I guess that is the way business works. But still I would recommend to sell your old games on eBay where you a re far more likely to get a better price. Not long ago GAME scrapped there 10 days returns no fuss guaranteed promise. Which is ...
