UK: Mobile phone retailer Phones 4U (and the sister company Dial-a-Phone) are moving in on the console games market – two new websites, Games4U, and Click-a-Game, will sell new and back-catalogue games on pretty much most home and portable games console platforms, and also for the PC. Free delivery is in the mix, and there should be some hefty discounts in there too.

I just checked out Games4U, and there are some pretty reasonable discounts to be had – like with most things, the power of the InterWeb means you can find a decent deal on most titles these days, so it will be interesting to see how the sites fairs against the more established online retailers.

About The Author

Ben Robinson

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
