A number of years ago, the EB Games store where I usually buy my games had PC games taking up 4 complete wall sections, each 4' wide and 8' high. Three of them were "New releases" where the games were spread out facing forward, and one was older but unused games turned sideways. They also had two more wall sections of used PC games. Since that time, the PC games section has shrunk to one floor display, 4' wide by 4' tall, with games on both sides. There are no games on the endcaps even, since they pile accessories like joysticks there. I find it sad that there is more space devoted to PC games in Wal-Mart than in EB.

Now, I also don't find myself browsing for games anymore either. If I want something, I call and see if they have it. If they don't, I order it online. I preorder upcoming games I really want on release and pick them up the day they hit the store.
