Ah. Sounds like Game Crazy in the states, which is owned by Hollywood Video.

I work around the corner from a Game Crazy store and I never noticed it until I used the store locator on their website. I must have driven past it a hundred times. It really is just a little room at the back of the video store... kind of weird. The one time I went in I felt like I wasn't really supposed to be there.

Unless the magazine is also owned by Blockbuster...
