There's one bar near me that just has a shit load of arcade cabinets that are all free once you buy a drink. That's okay, but what OP described sounds like shit.

You mean an Internet cafe that serves alcohol?

Sounds pretty standard for the video game industry
>>342631495
I think you must have misheard your friend, OP. He must've said "gay bar".
>>342632659
>implying quake is any good
grow up fag
Hmmmm
>>342632752
He probably said "gaymen bar"
>>342631495
Why would anyone open/ go to a 'gaming bar'? Games are for home or dedicated nerd places, bars are for bars.

Shut up Todd like you know what a good video game is
>>342632958
I've been to some p cool barcades. Getting drunk and playing freeplay arcade cabinets is super fun. I think OP just went to a shitty one because if you're playing fucking PC games at a bar it's not going to be that great of a time.

Strange dissonance, but that aside, they had some good games. Super smash bros tables where you and 3 friends sat opposite a Wii with Brawl were set up. The ladies were actually more knowledgeable about vidya than one would assume some stacked honeys would be. One came with me and my two friends and played a round of Brawl on her break.
>>342633438
Here are both best girls.

The only "gaming bar" downtown is hooked up with arcade machines and some N64s and PS1s.
>playing crash bandicoot drunk and trading off with my friends
>playing old school gauntlet and XMEN
It's a good time desu but not needing quarters makes it incredibly easy.
>>342631495
I bet you play ibuki faggot

they better have at least had GC controllers

Why did you just describe /a/? Those are literally all /a/ stereotypes.
>>342633652
They had two GC controllers and two Wiimotes at each booth.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't expect this to be in Toronto.

>>342633828
Little did you know that /a/ and /v/ are the same group of people and it has always, always been that way.
Though for the past six years that's fallen apart.

Fucking hell, truly the sign of the worst kind of normies. At least makes it easy to spot them.
I thought about going down to london to meet N0tail once but the thought of a bar filled with sweaty socially retarded neckbears really turned me off
Well, here, in Mexico, there's a gaming bar.
It's pretty good since there are original arcades.
However, customers are cringe-worthy.
>>342632586
Visited a friend and there was a place like this. Even had some good fightan cabs.
>>342632659
sounds like a shitty board
What's the point of playing MOBAs in a bar?
I say, arcades are pretty fast and you can socialize... but a moba...
>>342633183
Food is good at least

Notice how I put those two in different sentences? They had a Mortal Kombat cabinet, which I was pretty impressed about. They also had a ps3 set up for stewart fighter and an Xbox with Halo and Gears. Really, the setup must have been pretty pricey. Food was okay, but the drinks were good.
>>342631495
I'm thinking of opening a gaming bar with weekly tournaments for different games, giving the winner free drinks. I want some arcade machines and party games, nothing anti social.

This, drunken arcades are super fun. Especially if they have an air hockey table.
Me and my brother stayed with my aunt and her boyfriend for a few days awhile back. They went to a casino all day so we had the house and a car to ourselves.
We looked up vidya retailers in the area and my brother found this one place that was called something like "Video game Hideaway" that was essentially a hangout spot that like 15 people and their friends hyped on facebook. Biggest thing they were known for was BlOps tourneys but they apparently didn't have many in-house consoles because someone was on their page whining about the lack of ps4s.we ended up not going because I was too skeptical. We played hide-n-seek instead and watched Jurassic World. Was okay
>>342636880
>We played hide-n-seek instead

QUICK POST YOUR HOMEMADE DRINKING GAMES
>me and buddies do a half-roster challenge on Mortal Kombat X every friday, where we select half of the roster to go to one player, the other gets the other half
>every consecutive loss after the first is a shot
>every round loss is a sip
>A flawless victory is 5 shots
Needless to say it's how we end the night before we suck each other off and cry.
>>342633662
fund it
>>342637073
Of course not. It was a sizeable home with a design that allowed for plenty of "cycles". Perfect for hide-n-seek
>>342632358
We got one near Disney in Orlando. Never went though
>>342637078
See everyone gets drinking games backwards. Drinking should be done by the victor and there's couple of reasons for this.
1. I want to drink and I don't want to lose. Drinking is the reward.
2. Making the person who does better drink more will impair them and naturally level the playing field.
Went to a "gaymer" bar the other night. I was surprised how many people looked like they posted on /v/. The few amount of girls that were there were basically mine for the picking, it was fucking great. I would recommend them to anyone that can hide their power level.
>>342637078
Here's one I play a lot:
Drink a beer for every time you remember you don't have any friends.
Take a shot or slam a mixed drink every time you switch between trying to play a game in your backlog and shitposting.
I end up hammered every time.
>>342637290
Me and my friends are already equal, and we retain skill pretty well until we get absolutely fucking shitfaced, in which case we usually dick off and do something else. Also, you assume we drink stuff that is good to drink, but in reality we are punishing the loser with gutrot Popov or Sobieski, sometimes Cuervo if we got a few extra dollars.
