Gamestop merged with Eb today to form the biggest (and really only) video game store chain. with now 3300 stores in 8+ countries they are certain to take down wally mart. Gamespot bought Eb for 1.4 billion, and CEO of Eb is now gone.
Gamestop has never moved into canada so they are likely just to take our name and not close us.....however american employees will certainly lose jobs as some malls have both stores inside.
The weird thing is that Eb games is worth more then Gamestop by close to half a billion and yet they by us?? This sucks!
Now we are the EA / Microsoft of the gaming world.
I just hope i can keep my job
