Ben Grant resigns from GAME Australia

GAME Australia marketing director Ben Grant has announced his resignation today, and is hoping to move from retail to publishing.

Grant began his career at GAME as a buyer in the UK, and has decided to move on after 15 years of service, effective after the close of GAME’s financial year at the end of January 2012.

Grant told MCV Pacific: Having worked in specialist gaming retail for 15 enjoyable years, I feel it is time for a change, primarily to challenge myself further and also broaden my skill sets. My preference is to jump across to the other side of the desk, and join a publisher or developer.”

GAME is a fantastic company to work for, which is why I have stayed for 15 years, but now it is time for a fresh challenge.”

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games.
