Yeah this'd be a great idea guys. Used to LAN years ago back in Waterford but I'd love to give it a go again.

Must try and organise times etc that suits everyone though but there's no huge rush. We can start planning something and see how it turns out!! Be a mad laugh though seeing as how I don't have enough gamer friends in Galway and one always needs more!

Flojo · 08-07-2010 3:47pm

Come join our little family if you haven't already guys and gals!

Asmodean · 08-07-2010 3:49pm

RolandIRL · 08-07-2010 3:54pm

Some ARMA II would be nice.

Ahh good old Bohemia and Flashpoint, great game and the only one I've posthumously killed another player with a tractor! Lads in [ii] have a custom mission for the original flashpoint called Fugitives ,3 pow's crashland in a chopper and have to make there way to the south of the island while being hunted by 29 other players with access to choppers, trucks etc. all that's missing is tracker dogs! great craic.

I would love to play some arma II but sadly my lappy isnt up for it.

Ronan [ii] told me about that. Sounds like mad craic.

I wonder did they ever create the equivalent for Dragon Rising?

I never got on that well with the original Flashpoint. I only really played it in the old Clan. Seemed like a great game but I never got into.

Yup pretty positive that they do!

I think there are 49 pc's in [ii] all the exact same so it's a truely even playing field. (no pun intended!)

skelliser · 08-07-2010 4:23pm

Were are you having this LAN, my lappy isnt powerful enough for such an event!

Well we're just meeting up a mini LAN on Sat in Square eyes. The bigger LANs
will take around two weeks to organise, need to do plenty of brainstorming first to make it suitable and enjoyable for everyone!

But in the mean time we will be having beers, mini LANs and making new friends...

Asmodean · 08-07-2010 4:33pm

Oh nice one! Hope I can make it on Saturday!

Steyr · 08-07-2010 4:40pm

OK PEOPLE LISTEN UP!

What time we meeting at Square eyes on Sat?

I can't hear anything?

But to answer your question hehe maybe around 3? Gives me enough time to crawl out of bed and to try disguise my hungoverness! But if ye wana go earlier obviously fire away I'll meet ye there around 3!

Also i think everyone should make a boards.ie hat out of paper mache... just so we'll know who everyone is, just saying! :pac:

Good stuff. Never been in square eyes before so it'll be a good laugh. I love MW2 but I suck balls at it so I guess ye'll recognise me because I'll be the one with the massive target on his back. lol

2pm sounds good to me too.

I've PM'ed Steyr, so anyone else that will be knocking around should do the same.

Asmodean · 08-07-2010 5:12pm

I'll wear my full spartan body armour, or a green t shirt, either's good I guess!

Maybe I'll come in at 2 aswell, I'll know for sure tomorrow. Is square eyes welcoming to noobs?

Absolutely it is, the Smoothie shakes are AMAZING.

spider guardian · 08-07-2010 5:13pm

Beer on Friday nite, games on Saturday, now if there was only a way to combine the two then even Master Chief himself would be too stunned for words. Not that he was that talkative anyways but you know what I mean

Bob_Harris · 08-07-2010 5:14pm

Well, I won't be going. I hope ye enjoy then smell sweat. :pac:

skelliser · 08-07-2010 5:14pm

ok, il see if i can make it down on saturday.

Steyr · 08-07-2010 5:20pm

PM me whoever is going.

Asmodean · 08-07-2010 5:22pm

the Smoothie shakes are AMAZING.

Sold and SOLD

RolandIRL · 08-07-2010 5:34pm

unfortunately i won't be there

it'd be a bit of hassle to get a bus to galway and back again. even though [ii] is right beside the bus station.

hopefully though i might come up for another day.

Squareyes is really great. God knows, I've asked Ronan some really stupid questions before and he made sure I got an answer. They always seem to have good staff as well.

I've never come across any problems with machines. Everything just works. Every machine has a huge monitor, nice speakers and a PC/Xbox360 controller if you prefer to play that way. I call it "n00b-proofing"

They have all the normal snacks and drinks and you can order in pizza, paninis etc. Oh and them famous shakes as well.
