BobLAN 2010.2

Yet another cracking LAN weekend at Bob's Tardis was had by all. Most of the regulars made it along, and it was good to see some new faces - Bynar and DBoy from MooseKnuckle (who we play L4D2 against) and Al's friend Dee.

Similarly with the gaming - plenty of CS GunGame, L4D2 and Rockband. We also tried some new games - Blur and F1 2010 in the racing genre, and Frontlines - Fuel of War in the tactical FPS genre. The latter was a great game in principle, although it was let down by a major stuttering issue that affected most players at some point. Hopefully it'll have been patched and be a bit more polished next time. Still, you can't complain when you only pay £1.49 for it :)

The food was as per usual - great breakfasts, Asda curries, Kamran curries and pizza from Midnight Express. In a break with tradition, following their recent zero star hygiene rating, we dropped TinTin as our preferred rinky supplier and instead went to the new local Wing Lee. Great decision. For once, we got everything we ordered (even Pup) although none of it was labelled.

So a big thankyou to Bob once again, and a reminder to those who attended to pay up asap. The last thing we need is for BobLAN to take on any more bad debts :)

DF-Lynx has published the date for the next LAN weekend - it'll run from Thursday 4th November through to Sunday 7th. There hasn't been that much in the way of new games since Easter, although the recent Steam games Alien Swarm and Dogfighter look fun.

As usual, keep up with events at our BobLAN page.
