There were quite a few games in the 2 for £15 lot, stuff like Company of heroes, BF 1942 pack, Sup com etc.

Sorry guys, couldn't be bothered to read 13 pages, but have you guys thought about going to Omega Sektor in birmingham? 5 mins walk from the train station and costs £5 for a day ticket to play all day, the computers are pretty high spec and all use razers and can run crysis well. All games, pcs etc are included in the price including console wars (image guitar hero wars or SSB-M tourney

Ive been meaning to see what the Omega looks like, BUT . . . it really wouldnt be worth organising it all just for a day/I wouldnt be prepared to go all that way just for 8 or so hours tbh.

+ Even if they were higher spec'd pc's give me my own mouse/keyboard combo anyday, AND . . . . you cant take your own drink to the Sektor?

What's up with the GameOn website and forums? They've been down for about a week now.

MadduckUK · 27-07-2008, 08:30 PM

this is a good question

hadn't actually noticed

Actually, assuming it's not massively expensive to get there, I think I would prefer something like that.

I'm all up for going to a LAN, but I'd rather not have to cart my PC and monitor there too as well as whatever else I'd need. I wouldn't mind taking my PS3, but a whole PC just feels like too much effort.

Anyway, I'd only be there for the laugh, not the competition, so using someone else's equipment doesn't really bother me unless it's utter pants.

What does everyone else think?

Also, I too haven't read the whole thread, so I have no idea how much of this has already been decided. Seems I'm late to the party again

^^ This and pre-lannage excitment is building!

Although I have got to add a new HDD and revert back to XP on my main pc, so all hell could break loose, and im not looking forward to hunting down/making drivers work. *Scowls at X-Fi card*

ajbrun · 27-07-2008, 09:49 PM

I feared that might be the case.

Have fun anyway

.

Perhaps we could look into the Omega Sektor thing for another outing.

its not too late you know. im sure when the website manages to sort itself out there will be spaces still available

tiggerai · 28-07-2008, 09:39 AM

There were a few spaces left at the back end of last week when the website was still up.

I'm going to GAME today to have a look see, anything worth picking up in there while I'm there? any good deals on the 2 for £15?
