Hi

Can anyone recommend any Mac games shops in North East England? Say as far North as Newcastle-upon-Tyne, South as far as Leeds and West around Darlington. There's very little to the East except the North Sea (and Middlesbrough!) ;) I'm not looking for discount stores, just a decent range. PC World don't count!

Failing that, mail order in the UK who don't charge the earth for postage and offer a speedy service. Many thanks!

Cheers

Mike

Thanks for the replies guys, but I was looking for a specialist retailer.

The Apple Store's too expensive and there isn't one in the North East. Just fancy the largest shopping complex in Europe's not got an Apple Store... The nearest's about 120 miles away!

The likes of Game, Gamestation etc if they do stock any Mac software, have so little as to not make the trip worthwhile. Currys, Comet and Staples? No chance...

Thanks again for the replies.

Cheers

Mike

When I have looked in Game there are absolutely no Mac games to be seen. I don't think you can buy Mac games from retailers in the UK other than the Apple Stores.

PC World might sell Mac games, but I wouldn't build your hopes up.
