Came for prices, left due to shoddy customer service. Part of my order showed up almost a month…read morelate, another part was cancelled without them even informing me. Worst part though was the truly useless customer service when I contacted them to find out where the heck my stuff was. Confrontational, blame shifting and unable to even muster an apology or read my emails properly. I've spent €1,000s here in the past but they won't be getting a penny more from me. I know their discount is tempting but there are other retailers with similar discounts and WAY better attitudes.

Okay, before I even begin to write this review, let me start with... no, they are not actually…read more"toys" they are miniatures. And no, I do not play with the miniatures, but the man I love does. And of course, that has direct repercussions on our household life. It means many hours walking by Games Workshop and Dark Sphere to pick up things for his army. It means many hours helping him paint tanks and aliens. It means bookshelves in our cramped apartment devoted to paints, men with little guns, and armored aliens. It means all of this to me. But of course so much more to my husband. With my husband's discovery of Dark Sphere, it means that he can now complete his army and get 25% off. Not only does that make him happy, that makes me happy too! Because that 25% in savings usually means treating me out to a nicely deserved weekly dinner for being a very tolerant wifey! (You can save 20% when dropping their shop, or 25% by ordering online, OR you can even order online and then pick up in their shop!) P.S. They're currently moving to a less crowded location! More gamey nerdiness on its way!

I'm a big fan of indi games shops…read more The staff here are friendly , have a laugh and know everything they need to about the games/products. They tend to get new release games in cut price for the first week, so reserve early.

Just a small amount to compromise on price and I would of easily spent a few hundred pounds here today.

This is a little gem. Although it is a games shop where you can buy playstation and various other…read moregames it is also a great place for a birthday party. I have an 8 year old who wanted a party there. Basically for £15 a head you get 10 children maximum that take over the shop - they shut the shop for this two hour period and you get to play on all the playstations, wii, xbox, etc and then there is a fun football challenge at the end with a prize for the over all winner. You get sausage and chips or something similar from the chip shop next door and the kids love it. The man who owns the shop is lovely and the guys he has working there are really helpful. The kids had a great time and that is the main thing.

DO NOT EVER TAKE YOUR COMPUTER TO THIS SHOP FOR FIXING!!!…read more I took my sons computer for the HDMI port to be fixed. I was told on the phone that it would take two days and very straight forward. when I dropped it off it soon became known to me that he takes them to someone else to fix. This took a week unlike told on the phone two days. I collected it after a week and took it home. The HDMI was fixed, however it was now not playing discs as it had been the night before, I took it back to the shop. Richard would not take responsibility and even accused my son of not telling me it was originally broke. I had seen my son with my own eyes playing and he had received a trophy on the game the night before. Richard tried to say that you can play without a disk (anyone with a brain would know this is not possible because the game was not downloaded on the console). Due to me being female he tried to tell me that it is possible to play a game without the disc! Richard refused to fix the problem he had made and said I had to pay another £50 for it to be fixed. In total this cost me £125 for taking the console to this CON-ARTIST!!! When I got this home tonight my son noticed there have been three games used on his computer that he does not own! Richard was very rude on the phone and even tried to accuse my partner of being racist on the phone to him, unknown to him my partner is the same race and when i pointed this out he went very quiet. I have now found a reliable man who will fix your HDMI port for less money, less stress and guarantee not breaking it anymore. I just wish i had known about him before. He is situated at Mayplace, called Mathew and his contact number is 01322 522267. I would not recommend this man or shop for anything as he is capable of stealing parts from you console or using it in his shop while you think it is still being repaired. I have reported this to trading standards who are looking into this matter. please report to them if you have had similar experiences. I have since heard that this man does not have a good reputation and is known for never being open or returning calls. I would be very aware if you book a party and have to hand over a deposit. In case he is just not there on the day and your child like mine is left disappointed!!!

This branch of Game is quite a modern store in Westfield Stratford City, it is one of the new style…read morestores similar to branches in the intu Trafford Centre in Manchester, and the Wardour St branch much closer, in the Soho district of London. The store has a better feel to it than most other Game branches and the same generic stock you'd expect to find in a store, perhaps a little too many pre-owned games compared to newer ones but as Game do offer a buy/sell service of old electronics and games, I presume this can change. My comments on that service were explained in more detail in my review for Game's branch in Brighton here (https://www.yelp.co.uk/biz/game-brighton-3) - It sadly seems trade-in prices have declined over the past few years to a much poorer and less competitive rate. The staff in the store seemed nice enough, but they did seem to have too many staff at the door and they were a little overstaffed, which is strange considering I found a good number of stores throughout the rest of the mall to be the opposite. Nice store in terms of overall feel, but pretty much average in terms of product range, this is probably the better store compared to similar rival CeX for buying in terms of prices, yet worse for selling especially pre-owned goods. 3* - Nice overall feel, yet product range could be improved with more newer goods considering they are supposed to sell both and trade-in prices could also be improved, especially for mobile phones where I find Game to probably be the worst retailer for trading in (it makes me surprised they actually have a decent mobile phone section at some branches including this one!)

Wow. Just, wow! I decided to check this place out (due in now small part to the label "megastore"…read morein some directories). I was not disappointed. The location has two massive stories of wall-to-wall geeky joy. Books, action figures, art, video gaming goodness; it's got it all.

The Game Spot sells non-bootleg DVD's for £5. I'm not wholly against bootlegs. In fact when…read morerandom people come into shops trying to sell me their totally illicit film wares I'm generally always up for having a peek. There's a risk with the purchase though. Since I'm the most unlucky cookie on earth I tend to buy the bootleg DVD's that have been filmed in the movie theatre by some random person eating popcorn who decided that the best way to capture quality was to film the movie on his/her mobile phone. In these situations those bootlegs are complete rip-offs. If you don't want to face the agony of living through that possibility then come to Game Stop. They sell video games for all systems. Also, they trade your DVD's and games for store credit or cash, so if you want to get rid of that documentary on Little Richard's life story then this might be a good place to get that off your shoulders.

Having never really been a computer geek before, I took it upon myself to buy an Xbox about 2 years…read moreago. It was rarely played; the occasional treat when the boys came round. However, the purchase of a recent war game changed all that. I started going to bed at 2am. I'd try and play before work. I'd make excuses for missing rugby training. Imagine my shock, horror and crocodile tears when the xbox went and blew up?! Ok, so by this point the phase was over and I was playing only occasionally, BUT STILL! It blew up! I went in here with my cap in hand, crying to anyone who'd listen. Luckily someone did listen. He even empathised. I left Game with another xbox! Oops. Not a brand new one, but pre-owned machine with an extra cheeky £30 knocked off for good measure - he took pity on me. This Game has just earned my loyal custom. If I ever get round to buying another game that is....

CeX is what you'd expect to see if a rundown GameStop was combined with a dirty pawnshop. Doesn't…read moresound like the best of combos, but it works and the staff was surprisingly friendly (unlike a GameStop). I was stuck in the UK without an adapter for my MacBook Air (yes, I'm an idiot) and this crowded little store had them for less than the price of my firstborn son. Seriously Apple, WTF is up with your exorbitant hardware prices? So I was able to save the day (and keep my job) with the help of the slightly overwhelmed, but generally nice, CeX staff. Yes, they'll hit you up to join their club or whatever corporate has them peddling, but they're forced to do that so I wouldn't hold it against them.

Good inventory of essential items, and staff who can actually help.
