PG had been going through some... interesting times.
I worked there, briefly, and while the Store Manager was genuinely enthusiastic (if a little short on actual management skills), the Overall Owner really didn't "get" gaming at all, and was kind of a douchebag. It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if OO decided to give it up, and focus on his other shops.
Orc's Nest is well-named, because most of the staff are about as friendly as the aforementioned green-skinned humanoids. Leisure Games, OTOH, is a good shop, with knowledgeable staff, and there's a board-gamey shop near Warren Street (which might be the chess shop ffutures is mentioning)
