New game store just opened in bristol, they have a Lan set up with about 12 pc's, also ps4 and xbox, cost £5 per hour but did look quite impressive, also had two vive vr setups for people to try out

I happened to pop in there yesterday, looked like a pretty decent setup they had in the LAN hall.

There were quite a few people ranging from student age to in their 40s buying games full price.

They're idiots, not gamers.

I use this store a lot, if you're talking about the one in The Mall (Cribbs) and the Lan hall is often full with what must be pre booked parties, they seem to be having a great time in there judging by the shouting & laughter resonating around the store!

So maybe Game are trying to secure their future in other ways not just game sales.

The staff are polite and know their eggs, It's a good place to trade and generally browse.

Hope they stick around, I'd miss it if it went.
