Anyone here from around Chicago know of any game shops in downtown Chicago that have, or preferably specialize in, used and/or import games? I've been dying to find one lately, and there are absolutely none around my area, and figured there had to be at least one in Chicago. It kind of amazes me how hard it is to find such a shop in my area or around Chicago, and it sucks to think that there was once a really good mom'n'pop game shop about four blocks away from my house a few years ago.

I just hate reading posts on the internet about people who "just visited my local import game shop", when I don't even have a friggin "local game shop".

Anyways, anyone here know where the best place for used games is downtown?

I think there's one on Cicero Ave. near Addison or Belmont. I think a block south of either street. I'm not sure but I did see a small game shop in the area.

There is a game shop, I think it's called Game Stop or something, in the shopping center w Dominicks it's right off Roosevelt. Don't think they have imports though..

Also, everything appeared overpriced the one time I did go.

The Microplay out in Hanover Park has some imports. You can also order special stuff there, adapters & such. I understand that they are a chain, but they really have that Mom & Pop feel to me. I heard there was one in Oak Lawn.

Cyberzone out in Hoffman Estates used to be very, very nice, but it went out of business. So sad!

Take the train out to Arlington Heights & check out Game Club. I think they're on Palatine Road.
