Video Game Night

[Gary Brown]

I think we should have a video game night. Not necessarily all the time, just a wee fanny around on the Megadrive on Jims Screen or summit.

That would be awesome. MKII Tournies and Toejam and Earl

surely it should culminate in some sort of showdown on the big screen in qudos?

[Gary Brown]

Oh aye, some kind of Tekken war or summit

Gary

[Syxx]

Tekken, Soul Calibur, MVC2, Christ anything on that screen would be top notch. Hell yeah.

mario kart? console tbc.

[Jon Ashley]

we should buy a Wii and play Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess on the big screen. That would be amazing.

[endless psych]

Hell yes! That would make having a life membership worthwhile

[ally.h]

That would be the best thing ever!

[anglarna]

I think you should give us a cheeky wee gig at it as well. Seeing as we make music using videogames consoles.

[Dec]

Aye, Phil and the other one whose name escapes me would provide the perfect soundtrack to an evenings gaming. Perfect soundtrack to an evening's anything really.

I think we have overlooked a few things:

GOLDENEYE!?!
HALO?!?
PERFECT DARK!?!

all amazing games that would be amazing on the big screen! players one and two would have to sit upstairs to see their players. But having said that something requireing more skill, like Splinter Cell (#3 as that has multiplayer).

[Hammer]

Dude, if we're doing Halo, we're doing the graphically superior sequel (8 player obviously).

I'd like to see us hiring a bunch of PCs and doing Lan gaming in Qudos. Half-Life 2 or Quake anyone? Maybe a spot of C&C?

A Wii session also sounds like fun, but there might be problems from things like phones if they're are too many people in the bar.

We could always get one of these babies for the Games Room.

A DS gaming session could be good as well? How many players does Mario Kart DS support?

[endless psych]

You can do a Lan pretty much anywhere (depending on space) but you only have the big screen in Qudos... Ergo I think console games might be more appropriate... Unless your going to hire out a hell of a lot of PCs...

I'm pretty sure that it'd never happen anyway. PC games seem to be percieved as being less cool, so we probably wouldn't get as many 'drop-in' player wanting to have a go. I still think it'd be cool tho.

Shame GUNS (Glasgow Uni Network Gaming Scoiety) appeared to die on it's arse. An event with then in the QM would be well cool fun.

they used to do lan gaming in committee room 1. i remember it interfered with stags block booking one time. never again, if ros's roleplay is anything to go by.
