I was thinking of going to Games Masters, but the price put me off it, as I only wanted a quick look at it. I'd say for that purpose save the money.
Is it worth going if you are not an all round gamer, that is, you have niche genres you are interested in? There are about a dozen gaming machines you still find in several pubs, some PS2&3, PC based games as well but I think the ipad dominates. It is used for background info on Software developers and companies (that's what made it not a total waste of that admission fee for me) and for games as well.
They got a display of consoles which is far from complete and not much info about them either. They claim to have 125 games you can play and visitors are advised to limit the time at any one machine to 5 minutes. Sven

Hi,
in regards to the games night mentioned at the last meeting, there is a live distro called lglive and comes in two flavours, one is DVD size and the other one CD size (suitable for children and older hardware).

I reckon using this also at FSD is gonna draw people's attention to the event even more. I was at "Games Masters" last weekend and it is pretty much just about playing games for an unjustified admission fee. More info can be provided.
Regards,
Sven
