Haven't set foot in a GAME in years, but next time I'm in the Trafford Centre I'll pop in and have a look
You should market these purely on the POWER advantage. Lose the keyboard and mouse, just have a controller and a Steam Big Picture account per booth, with like Witcher 3 running or something. Once you get console-centric passerbys looking at how much more powerful a reasonable spec PC is then you have opened the door to the rest of the package.
Isn't it free though? i.e they don't have to spend £xx per store to license a new AAA on each machine.
In an ideal world if you want to 'showcase' PC gaming then you'd have a demo running the same game (lets say Witcher 3 for instance), once running in console mode with medium graphics running sub 30fps with a comparison of PC mode running high details at 60+ fps. But Game might not want to alienate their console shoppers.
Why aren't you in the GAME about 2 miles from you?
Or Hanley?

I've already asked this, it's yet be answered.
We understand that we're not in a lot of GAME stores right now. We are in 10. There are more to come. We have been installing in the stores that have the most footfall, and the ones that were able to put up the booths ASAP.
We have a shop in Stoke already, so people can just pop to our HQ, but this still doesn't mean we won't have a booth in the Hanley branch. This just takes time.
Having one in Hanley would have immediately increased the footfall to the shop as it would be much easier to get to with being local, I would have thought? Those dam console players need educating. Anyway, look forward to seeing your eventual presence in the store at Hanley.

You won't bring PC gaming back to the high street, it's had its day.
GAME won't go back to stocking PC games with the huge amount of digital delivery systems out there, it's for console gamers now. I've not stepped foot in a GAME for a few years due to them pushing out PC games. You'll also be hard pushed to convert console gamers to PC systems, maybe the odd one or two but I doubt it'll be enough to make the investment in man hours worth it.
they do stock PC games
