Today UK retailer Grainger Games have closed their doors almost unexpectedly.
Staff in the stores which are closing will be paid until Saturday of this week, after which they're out of a job.
As part of its plans to cut 1,900 jobs, Microsoft has reportedly shut down operations at Bethesda France, letting go roughly 15 people
Bethesda France was made up of roughly 15 people... they couldn't of being doing much
Bethesda France mainly did publishing and marketing within the region
Bethesda France focused on publishing and marketing in the region. And 15 people lost their jobs as part of the closure.
I wonder if this is part of Microsoft's strategy to abandoned physical media or possibly gamepass advertising makes their roles redundant you don't need to market a game as hard when the majority of players get the game as part of a sub which already promoted upcoming games
Sony has launched the PlayStation Store "May Savings" sale, and this one has over 2,000 items! Read on for the complete list of games.

Am actually really gutted about this. I was just in my local yesterday. They where still trading with no hint of them closing down. I know they had there credit slashed last week. But I didn't think they where in immediate trouble. There website has also gone offline.
Here in the UK we only have a handful of places to buy our games in the high street. GAME, Grainger Games, HMV, Super markets and independent game retailers (these are rare). Grainger Games where always always cheaper then GAME and HMV and the Super markets. Like just last week when Sea Of Thieves came out GAME wanted £45 for it where Grainger Games where charging £45.
Looks like I am now an online exclusive shopper when it comes to games.
This annoys me when you have shitty overpriced GAME that are still in business, Grainger Games was great :(
I remember visiting Grainer Games in the Grainger market in town when I was younger, getting my Sega Megadrive games and continue to visit them even today
Such a shame. It was one of my hang out spots.
