The struggling retailer's inability to stock Electronic Arts releases such as Mass Effect 3 means that it stands to lose out on £2.5m in profit.

"There is a real risk that GAME's directors will pull the plug because they can't be sure that the company can survive through the next trading season, and then insolvency becomes inevitable," revealed an inside source.

The high street retailer's shares plummeted by 90% in 2011, despite £1 billion in annual turnover.
