Best Buy – the massive US electronics retail chain with a large games selection – is set for a massive expansion into the UK and the rest of Europe next year.
The news follows a deal between the chain and The Carphone Warehouse, which has sold 50 per cent of its European and US retail interests to Best Buy for £1.1 billion
A spokesperson for The Carphone Warehouse confirmed to MCV sister site PC Retail that the UK would see full scale Best Buy stores opening in 2009.

Good news.
We could well be doing with another competitor in the market. It's really only down to two companies; the Dixons Group and Comet. Dixons Group owns Dixons, Currys AND PC World, so another big player (with great backing, obviously) is going to shake things up a lot.
