Lotta good games in that time frame were solid Juul
I miss buying a game and just playing it, no updates, no passes, you get it all
I didn't play battlefield 3 too much tbh, I've seen some hillarious clips from shit you could do but I don't like a game where I can't just play me with bots
my pc couldn't run battlefield 2 so i would go to the local LAN center and play with the ppl there all day
it was so fucking good
Damn, I miss those places
I never fully enjoyed battlefield 2
I remember I played CoD MW the first time in one
I think battlefield 2 is my most played game, I still play it sometimes. Just with the AIX 2 mod.
I didn't even know about local LAN centers
we had an ok one but it was mismanaged to hell
probably could have stayed open a few more years than it did
We had places in malls that had xbox 360s and you could play for 2 hours for 5$
there's probably a viable business model for something like a LAN center but idk
it probably wouldn't look like they used to
There's still a ton of those in "poorer" countries
right
maybe something specifically aimed at people that wanna play with their friends in the same room and not just randos that need a computer/internet access
I think the best would be to have some spots like that but also just rooms that you could rent for smaller lans
higher pricing schedule but also more amenities
Bringing your own tech blows
maybe something like esports-centered
get all the latest greatest F2P esports games and lots of amenities and complimentary shit
Yeah but if I could chose between having a lan party at someones place where you put 6 pc on a dinner table and a place that's dedicated for it I'd probably chose the latter one
ppl just log into their own accounts
I mean your standard crummy LAN party has its charm but still
Dinner table lans were cool
I remember we would play halo in my friends kitchen
4-5 tvs in the kitchen
nice
maybe like
rent time on consoles hooked up to fucking huge TVs
Problem with LAN centers is that no one cares about property
I think the risk of vandalism is always a bit too high for using any high end tech though sadly
So you'd get a mouse with Dorito dust and boogies on it
And the keys would be missing
Halo 3 LAN parties were the peak of humanity
we will never again reach that level of quality
