GameStop Opens UK Retail Site

July 29, 2011 -

U.S. game retail chain GameStop has opened up a retail site dedicated to consumers in the united Kingdom. The new site opens with a bang, offering customers several promotional deals including a three-for-two sale on pre-owned games, and reduced prices on some console hardware and software. The new site is located at www.gamestop.co.uk.

"GameStop's entry into the UK online market will provide consumers with more choices and exclusive content that they can't find anywhere else," said Mike Mauler, executive vice president of GameStop International. "One of our European exclusives is for the anticipated release of Assassin's Creed Revelations Animus Edition, which will be available to UK gamers only through www.gamestop.co.uk."

Some of the aforementioned specials include the Nintendo 3DS Cosmic Black console for £154.97, Call of Juarez for Xbox 360 and PS3 priced at £21.97, and the exclusive Assassin's Creed Revelations Animus Edition for preorder. The Animus edition comes with an in-depth encyclopedia with comprehensive entries on the major characters, events and other important aspects of the Assassin’s Creed universe; the original game soundtrack disc; the Assassin’s Creed Embers Movie (animated short film); the Animus Box and undisclosed exclusive in-game content.

GameStop UK is also offering a special contest for those who pre-order Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on the website. Pre-ordering will get you a shot at winning two tickets to the Call of Duty XP event in Los Angeles. For details on entering, visit www.gamestop.co.uk/MW3/Preorder.

Earlier in the week GameStop announced the launch of its in-store digital PC game purchase program. Basically, the program allows GameStop customers to trade in their used console games which can then be used to buy PC games such as the upcoming Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

Neo_DrKefka: That is correct in an At-Will state you or the employer can part ways at any time. However Florida also has laws on the books about "Wrongful combinations against workers" http://www.flsenate.gov/Laws/Statutes/2012/448.04510/20/2014 - 10:07am
james_fudge: he'd die if he couldn't talk about Wii U :)10/20/2014 - 9:16am
Michael Chandra: By the way, I am not saying Andrew should stop talking about Wii-U. I find it quite nice. :)10/20/2014 - 8:53am
Michael Chandra: 'How dare he ignore my wishes and my advice! I am his boss! I could have ordered him but I should be able to say it's advice rather than ordering him directly!'10/20/2014 - 8:52am
Michael Chandra: If GP goes "EZK, do not talk about X publicly for a week, we're preparing a big article on it" and he still tweets about X, they'd have a legitimate reason to be pissed.10/20/2014 - 8:52am
Michael Chandra: If GP tells Andrew "we'd kinda prefer it if you stopped talking about Wii-U for 1 week" and he'd tweet about it anyway, firing him for it would be idiotic.10/20/2014 - 8:51am
Michael Chandra: Legal right, sure. But that doesn't make it any less pathetic of an excuse.10/20/2014 - 8:50am
ZippyDSMlee: You mean right to fire states.10/20/2014 - 8:50am
james_fudge: some states have "at will" employee laws10/20/2014 - 7:50am
quiknkold: It says in the article that being in florida, you can get fired regardless if its a fireable offence10/20/2014 - 7:19am
Michael Chandra: If your employee respectfully disagrees with your advice, that's not a fireable offense. If they ignore your order, THEN you have the right to be pissed.10/20/2014 - 6:49am
Michael Chandra: I... Don't get one thing. If you do not want your employee to do X, why do you tell them it's advice or a wish? Give them a damn order.10/20/2014 - 6:48am
james_fudge: A leak that had me worried about being swatted by Lizard Squad.10/20/2014 - 6:03am

MechaTama31: I mean, of the groups being bullied here, which of the two would you refer to collectively as "nerds"?10/19/2014 - 11:30pm
MechaTama31: But that's the thing, it doesn't sound to me like he is advocating bullying, it sounds like he is accusing the SJWs of bullying the "nerds", who I can only assume refers to the GGers.10/19/2014 - 11:21pm
Andrew Eisen: Interesting read. Unfortunately, too vague to form an opinion on but at least now I know what faefrost was talking about in James' editorial.10/19/2014 - 10:39pm
