Former Ladbrokes CEO to take GAME Group chair?

MCV Staff 11th April 2011 Business News

GAME Group will apparently name Chris Bell as its new Chairman.

The former Ladbrokes boss has already been on the retailer’s Board for eight years, and even served as interim CEO when several execs left the firm last year.

Reports of his new appointment emerged from the Sunday Times (via Bloomberg), although the broadsheet did not specify the origins of this information.

If such an announcement is to be made, it is unlikely to be before the Group’s next trading update on April 27th.

MCV has contacted GAME for clarification.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

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. Every entry raises money for that work.
