Love it or loathe it, CeX is one of the world's major high street retailers of retro games these days, thanks to its wide network of franchised stores which deal in second-hand gaming goods.

The retailer - which began life in the UK in the early '90s - sells all kinds of retro gear, including games, hardware, accessories and other related items.

This is the first in a new series in which we'll be highlighting CeX's many retro offerings - both good and bad.

To kick things off, we've got a selection of photos from CeX's branch in York, England.
