Geekay in Oman

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008

Yep, unless you have been living under a rock (Couldn’t resist writing that!), Geekay is one of the leading (not sure if it is the only one) UAE game stores. They have opened up a tiny branch in the new tiny City Center in Al Qurum. You will find them on the second floor (or first for those who consider ground floor not as first floor) opposite the ice cream store (Can’t recall the name, but it definitely isn’t Baskin and Robbins).

Since they are fairly new, don’t expect a lot but you can be sure to find the latest games at prices that are far cheaper than the rip-off prices of Al-Emad (25 RO for Wrath of the Lich King anyone!) and I hope they don’t get Omanized when it comes to prices and stick closer to the UAE prices which are still expensive but nowhere near as Al-Emad outrageous prices.

The store still lacks a lot of hardware and currently have a few shelves with new games. Hopefully that will improve and will get better. They are already beating Al-Emad when it comes to pricing (18 RO for Wotlk!) and maybe that will pressure Al-Emad to use proper pricing this time since this will create competition.
