Tried to go on Game.co.uk, says they're undergoing maintenance.
Then tried Gamestation.co.uk, also says it's undergoing maintenance (but just shows a JPEG).
Is this just a coincidence?
Edit: Both domains point to the same subnet!
Edit 2: After some research, Game bought Gamestation in 2007. I didn't know they were essentially the same company! Bit of a pointless thread now really.
Hmm, it will be interesting to see what the outcome is.

Game have said its just routine maintenance and should be back in the morning. :P
I know that quite a few of the sales are ending, maybe they are taking the sale stock off the site.

It was all for a new site, which looks really crap imo.

I agree, the GAME site doesn't look very nice at all. :(

I think the Gamestation website is a tad nicer even though its practically the same. :P

It looks tidier because the areas are like sectioned off whereas on game it just looks all merged and messy

I remember when Game and/or Gamestation were Electronic Boutique :( Also, those two website designs are dreadful... The writing seems too big and it's just a mix match of white borders and pink for Game, and a over-powering background for Gamestation...
Seems as though game, gamestation and play.com have all been refurbished.

How odd. Both Play and Game are completely different companies :P The new play.com website looks odd, I miss the play.com symbol :(

I like the new Play site and the new Gamestation site (although, it's been live for a while?)
The GAME site is horrible though.

Game.co.uk is under maintenance again.
Edit: just game.co.uk, www.game.co.uk (http://www.game.co.uk) isn't, but they both seem up now.
Everything seems way too large on GAME.
Edit 2: Down again, so is Gamestation.

Judging by the huge maintenance sign that's being stretched to all proportions, maybe the new GAME website designers have put a string of code somewhere that is enlarging things? Just a thought, or whoever created the maintenance image was hopeless :P
