    Hi Everybody,

    I am hoping (fingers crossed) to open a small internet cafe down the country. I also would like to offer on line games to customers. However, I have a slight problem. I havnt a clue

    What are the top games?
    How much do they cost?
    What kind of an internet connection do i need? (Would the new Asdl do?)

    There is probably loads other stuff that i dont know either?

    Can someone tell me the basics or how to find out the basics?

    I would much obliged

    Peace Y'all

    I would advise if its anywhere near the ole Fiber Optic network to try and get into that :) . You will need:

    1) Counter Strike.
    2) Day Of Defeat.

    There the only two i ever see in use at Net Cafes. dNC (As far as i know) are running off ADSL/CABLE so ADSL would do you garand...the only problem is there only avelable in Dublin (At the moment)

    Thanks for the reply Winters

    Just found out that no ASDL for the rest of the country for 18 months (bastards!!)

    I know i could use aleased line but, they cost a fortune

    Would there be another way of getting a cheaper line to suit gaming.

    What about the High speed ISDN

    Are they called B.R.A. or something?

    i think the games are the least of your worried
    there was a thread on setting up a netcafe on the work board.
    its worth a read
    [edit]
    it was started by you
