I went here yesterday, it's a suprisingly awesome lan gaming cafe and I'll probably revisit it and volunteer to work there for "work experience" with Careers wales.
All their computers require steam and have very fast and tough hardware, which is great if you're out in town and don't know what to do, first thing i did was have a LAN party with some other guys on Garry's mod, and looking on the website again, i was suprised to find they have their own minecraft server and application available for people who own the game, which is awesome, as i've never seen anyone even mention or play the game in wales.

They have some cool valve store stuff on sale [with permission, of course], game posters all over the place,  and with 2gigabytes per second internet, it's nerd/hardcore gamer heaven!

We need more cafes like these in the UK, seriously, it's filled with people you can actually talk to about the same taste in games other than the usual "everyone is obsessed with black ops" situation [although they DO have black ops on their computers, there's an actual variety, thanks to steam]


The only thing i dislike is that most of the time people spend is on World of Warcraft, but half the time you'd be able to find people playing Gmod and etc

I wonder if i could see if they could support blockland without the problem of people stealing/copying keys, might ask next time.

someone tell me how to steal internet connections

lan/internet cafe






meh
What, it includes steam and etc, and has a huge game database, so you can log on and play most steam games.
This stuff is rare in wales.

Swansea

not too far, interesting

Sounds cool and all, but hosting a LAN party or going to one at someones house seems much more fun
