I just got back from my first LAN party in the city tonight...boy, was that was intense! Cover charge was 5 bucks, which wasn't too bad for 6 hours of non-stop gaming, I guess.
If anyone ever gets the chance to go to a LAN party, don't miss out on it - you'll be glad that you went!
Make sure you've got copies of all the popular multiplayer games installed, and you have at least some knowledge of local area networking. It's a drag when people can't play because they don't have the right updates or whatever installed.
In related news, if anyone lives in the Chicagoland area and would like to frag with me, drop me an email and we could prolly set something up.
Oh, and BTW, this party had about 50-60 people, but I've heard of smaller ones before. Lotsa fun.
