Flame thread has run it's course.


The PG was good yes but it subtracted from some of the fun as we had people that wouldn't play until they had seen their machine roll which would take in excess of 20minutes to 40minutes for them to be done. Still it was a damn good laugh but was boring after about the second go.


I still thought that Knappsters arcade machine was FRAKKING AWESOME and I really enjoyed it.

Ok, so that's Go Go Gadget - what about the other dozen or so games PG games that were played?

Personally from the 1-2 random games of things I played (fall down and an other) and obviously Go Go Gadget. Whilst not being busy with other things, I enjoyed it :D

My local LAN runs Projector Games as part of their big tournament (You earn points during all tournaments which are added up to a total at the end of the LAN) With some more space at the LAN (I hear they're looking for a bigger venue?) that might be an idea for the future.

IMO they did a good job :D

I wanna give kudos to the PG people, I thought it was a great addition to the LAN that I wasn't expecting, and it kinda brought everyone together a bit and provided lots of lols.

I don't really get the argument that it 'took away form the other games'. Surely people will play whatever they want to play. If they want to play GGG over a big game then let them- don't force them to play the big games instead by taking away the projector games. Maybe organise the times of the big games a bit better or something- at the start of the LAN, people will be intrigued by the projector games, then maybe they will be more interested in the big games later on in the event. There is room for both.

I wouldn't want it moved to the other room though, part of the fun is just looking up from your monitor and watching someones machine fail in a variety of different ways.

Big praise to GGG, I used to make little indie games myself and I know how much work goes into making something like that- probably more than most gamers realise. With a few tweaks, bugs fixed and a graphical overhaul, I think GoGo Gadget could achieve excellence. :)
