This too no one has to stay for both or only both. I figure ppl coming from further away may stay longer anyway.

![]() We went to 8otb today. Got to chill with kmay and stargroup. The place is pretty old looking but there's a lot of games and the prices are good. DDR is 50 cents, ITG 75 cents same for PUI and Technika (which is addicting as hell lol) ect.
Anyways, I think everyone will have a lot of fun there I had a blast and didn't even do all that much lol. There's a pizza place and a Chinese food place right next to it. There's a bowling ally close by, basically there's plenty around to keep us occupied. Oh and the train station for NJ transit is right across the st if anyone was looking to come that way. |

![]() Alright, update. Kayla, Kayla's brother Richie, Kellen, me and Bufang (better known as Stargroup) all went to the Break today -- the arcade has a pretty decent amount of games. It would be pretty cool to see outputs from everyone else, but here's mine.
First off, my thoughts about the arcade: - initially, I was a bit worried. The arcade does look considerably old from the outside, and even somewhat run down. However, the outside is very deceiving, because there are games of all varieties there. It goes without saying that they do a great job listening to their demographic -- the ITG and Pro 2 machines were very well maintained, the DJMax Technika machines were very clean and actually properly set (volume wise), the DDR Extreme machine is actually only two quarters, and in fairly good condition. A lot of the games look very well maintained. One thing that I truly disliked was the lack of air conditioner (probably not because they don't have it, but moreso don't want to use it) -- that will be something that we may have to contend with. For those of you rhythm gamers, all of these games were present: - Keyboardmania (3rd mix) - Guitar Freaks (I think it was 11th mix?) - Dance Dance Revolution: Extreme (50 cents!) - PIU Pro: 2 - In the Groove 2 (hacked cabinet, although r23 from what I've heard, and I sadly could not get my USB to work ![]() - DJ Max Technika 2 (two machines!) - Beatmania IIDX 17: Sirius - Pop'n Music (14?) As far as attractions and nearby places to eat: I'm not entirely familiar with Jersey (read: not my native state), but from what I noticed, there was a bowling alley on the way there, so if people get bored with The Break (or want to split days to do different things), they can head there. There are some places to eat within a few miles of 8 on the Break -- there's a pizzeria a couple doors down, and a Chinese take-out a few doors down in the other direction. On the highway, I noticed a Taco Bell, Burger King, and something else that I can't seem to remember. Just a few things. Last edited by TC_Halogen; 04-28-2011 at 07:19 PM.. |

![]() I live like an hour or two away from this place I think -- why are meet-dates so far off in the future here? Coordination?

This plus the older Saphira is the easier for us lol. She did awesome there yesterday though I was surprised. Also for those comin from further away it gives them time to save up for travel/hotel expenses and whatnot.

So if you can come let me know ^_^ I'd like to see how many people are actually going to attend this thinking about getting a lil something for the people that come so let me know.

![]() Just wondering, what do you guys do in meetups? (Is it just DDR/arcade or is there more than that?)
Also, I'm assuming no one is going to drive by Albany, NY, so I don't know if I can attend. However if someone does, please let me know asap :] Last edited by iironiic; 05-5-2011 at 06:50 PM.. |

We can do lots really. The arcade made a lot of sense for a meeting spot because this one has a bunch of rhythm games. But there's a bowling ally nearby, a mall, all kinds of stuff really. |
