Was in town, getin clothes for my holiday (which i go on tomorrow!! spain here i come!!!!)
and i went into gamestation, woolies and game..
well wollies, didn't have nc2, BUT gamestation and game did.

Unfortunately, they were on the bottom shelfs :((( SO i moved them into eye view ;)

So hopefully people will be looking for SW, and get nc2 instead?! well my train of thought enayway :)

hope this helps guys n gals

lol if only... i haven't got the courage to press the "cancel" button.

Actually that's a good idea.

I would have done the same but not thinking of posting it here so others can think of doing it too:) LOL

Why not joining the effort:) Let us all do our Saturday afternoon shopping downtown, and while we are at it, pop in a PC Software shop and rearrange the shelves pretending we are looking for something; then leave and get on with the actual shopping... ;)

Excellent post by the way:)

PS It's imperative you don't do it minutes before they close for the day

I went to the store, thinking about doing the same thing. Then it occured to me, oh NC2 is not for sale in this "small market" country.

Eh, the Game store in the Mall @ Bristol has copies of NC2. Someone must have got there before me, though, becasue they were already on the middle shelf :)

"every littlebit helps" said the mosquito .. and he pissed in the sea :p

if everyone does he's or her share then soon enough it will be floating with new players here :) im curious if FNAC, a big multimedia store here in antwerp will have NC2 or not .. didnt check yet tough they had NC1 in stock a few years ago :)

good job darknessfairy !

store clerks do more then just sort through things other people stuck some where...

the question we should be asking is why would some one put NC2 on the bottom shelf... id think the less then popular games would be put at eye level... with this thinking i guess NC2 is doing well

if i owned a shop i would rather display perfect dark 0 front and centre than nc2 front and centre...

you dont see Ford showrooms showing the old clapped out fiesta's and having the decent cars hidden away do you? you show the games that will sell well, not one you read got 24% in a review...

imagine you really really want Halo2. you headed in there and looking for it. if you see it at the front of the store you dont look around for anything else. however if its in the back of the store you will have to lookk around for it and might see something else you want too. However it shouldnt be too hidden or the person might think that the game is out of stock and go the next store so a balance is needed ;)

if halo 2 just came out, and i couldnt see it in an obvious place, i would go somewhere else. i wouldnt spend ages looking, because i know thats how you end up buying crap

Myself and Siygess will be conducting an undercover NCPD operation in Oxford tomorrow. All Oxford game stores will be made to answer to Reza if they are not selling NC! :lol:

Brammers, all you need to do is bring a sexy girl in with you.. have her pick up the game and tell EVERYONE they should play this game.. i think that would get their attention :)
