The UK games market? Experiencing growth. Data announced by top-secret British chart-keepers ChartTrack shows that total sales for the industry, which is games, hardware and accessories combined, are up 42%. That's a lot! So much so, in fact, that ChartTrack's Director, Dorian Bloch, is all giddy:

We are on track for the biggest year ever in the UK. I didn't forecast at the beginning of the year that we would be seeing growth like this and there is no reason to think that the rest of the year won't continue this upwards trend.

You didn't forecast it? Someone get Pachter on the phone, tell him his services are required urgently across the pond.
