    "According to ELSPA’s current Leisure Software Market Report, published by Screen Digest, the UK leisure software market is the third largest country market in the world, after USA and Japan. In the UK, consumers now spend more on leisure software than on renting videos or cinema visits."

    Interesting... but surely that means that Europe as a whole is soon to be the biggest games market in the world?

    I thought britain was always third....but in ratio per capita ireland is second in europe

    in fact i regard gamers in britain to be the most hardcore...

    japan and america don't import to the extreme they do.. which is obvious why they do it.

    and they also get the local games etc.. that japan and sometimes america don't!

    i talk to a few of them thru irc and hell sometimes the knowledge of the games market and games they posess amaze me. :eek:
