How has business been so far this year? Compared to last year? It’s been about the same, but the rent and rates have gone up so my outlay is getting worse. But we’ve had good sales of things like Max Payne 3. And Dragon’s Dogma did well for us – there’s quite a big RPG community down here.
What were your highlights from E3? Most of the games I liked
are coming out next year. Although I am looking forward to Dishonored– that looks great. Haloand Resident Evil should be good too. And I’m starting to like the look of Wii U, really warming to that.
What do you think will sell well this Christmas? It’s got to be Call of Duty– it is every year. I’ve already got 30 pre-orders for Black Ops II – some have already put money down for it. The
trouble is, they all want the Hardened Edition, which I usually have trouble getting hold of. I only get a couple in. Last year wasn’t so bad, because I had a few
left. But all the previous ones, I couldn’t get enough to meet demand – all the gamers around here wanted the extra bits. Contact: 01326 211394
