FROM THE FRONTLINE
We speak to Steve Cooper from Grainger Games’ new Bradford store…
What makes your store unique? Competitive prices and a great range of games. We also have friendly, approachable and knowledgeable staff who actually play the games they sell. We give a shopping experience that is exactly what the customer wants.
“I’d like to think Move and Kinect can reinvigorate the retail market.”
What has been the biggest selling- game of Q3? Halo: Reach. As always, Halohas such a strong following and this is the biggest and best Halotitle to date.

challenge is making people aware that we are here and that we offer an excellent alternative to the existing market.
Can motion controllers Move and Natal reinvigorate the retail market? I’d like to think they can. The Wii totally changed the gaming landscape and brought a whole new audience to it. On a true next-gen console like the Xbox 360 and with a totally new controller like Kinect, I think it’s going to open up the market to people who already have an
Xbox 360 in their household but haven’t got that involved with it.
What do you think about the VAT increase to 20 per cent? It was always going to happen and will affect all retailers, so I’m sure it will be business as usual. Grainger Games will continue to offer the best possible value.
