CA Games one of Glasgow finest purveyors of all things Video Game related will be shutting up shop on 31st January 2007.

Anyone in Glasgow who has ever had a passion for video games should have visited the shop at least once.

Charlie has said that there will be no more stock ordered for the shop and whats left in there at present is currently on sale at discounted prices.

There are bargains to be had on all next gen and retro games and accessories.

All profits going to fund Charlies new yacht :)

Ah, shame.

During my PS2/GC days, I was up there pretty much every weekend. Used them for all my trade-ins and stuff as well.

Haven't been going the past few years because online stuff is cheaper and easier. I'll definitely head up to see if I can pick up any bargains, though.

yeahjust wondering what made him walk out their in the first place, and he obviously died because he was under equipped, my guess is hypophermia

Yeh, guess he was trying to get help. I can't really say what I would do because I am not in that position. Stay in the car and hope someone finds you, or you try and find help.

Sorry we kinda went OT bingo. But it's a sad day. :(

The reason he left to go look for help was 7 days had already pasted, and it was time to go searching for help, 7 days and no sign of any help would make anyone go out into the wilderness.

He most likely died of Hypothermia, all alone in the middle of nowhere, slowly dying a terrible death, knowing that he was going to leave his family all by themselves. Terrible way to leave this world.

Well he was obviously feeling like, "Hey, if I don't go we'll all die, if I go, at least there's a chance I'll reach some help."

Quite brave, I think, even though it wasn't the smartest idea.

Always sad when the others get found..

It wasn't a dumb idea at all. Just because it didn't work out doesn't mean it wasn't the right decision.

Talk about an early Christmas present.

At least his family will know how much he really cared about them, not everyone would go out in the freezing cold, risking their life, to try and get help for their family.
