Heart of Gaming (London)
Looks like there's a new arcade opening in London. I'll be interested to see it next time I'm over there. Pity they seem to be canibalising Goodge St. Casino to do it but perhaps that place wasn't long for this world at the same time.

That's Firebugs gaff I think. Was in Potters Bar at one point.
Considering it was only down the road from me I rally should have gone and had a nose

I'm due to go down on Good Friday to help with the renovations and possible grab some seats amongst other stuff...

Liking the sound of this. Am I right in guessing it'll be a bit like Next Level in New York you'll rent sticks for an hour and a lot of stuff will be on console? Makes more sense than the old arcade model really. Keeps overheads down.

Re: Heart of Gaming (London)
Personally this is great, as the arcade's new location is less than a mile on foot from where I work. The opportunity for a cheeky credit or two of Third Strike post-work on my way home is very appealing. Hopefully see some of you there!

Re: Heart of Gaming (London)
That's really awesome.
Wish someone was doing the same for the Brazilian arcade scene - which is zero if not counting simulators in shopping malls or those so called "1000 games cabs" you can find in some places.

Looks great. Couple of usual suspects there.
