That behemoth of a UK videogame store chain GAME has announced that it is backing Game Domain International's new PC download venture. The on-demand service will offer titles from the retailer's website, and, in turn, GAME will support GDI's "A World of My Own" virtual networking space (yes, another one).
GDI claims it will allow users to play games within minutes of initiating downloads, but the article did not specify how much each download would cost. Oftentimes, downloadable content is cheaper when artwork, packaging and shipping are not factored into a product's final cost.
This of course makes GAME, who has already eaten up Gamestation earlier this year, an even more powerful company—depending on if it can dodge those little monopoly rumors. Kim Phu
