Starts at 6pm in room C165. - Console Gaming - We're back in the Old Bar this week with all the trimmings. I hope you're all ready for some more Little Big Planet 2 with brand new features such as infinite jumping dogs, out of sequence sections and floaty platforming that the makers should have fixed by now. So thats 2pm on Wednesday and we'll have delicious snacks for all. - Lab Gaming - Foorsooth! Last week we donned our hats in pride and shamelessly shoveled out cash for crate keys in Team Fortress 2.

Pizza for all combatants. - Techweek - In week 3 Games Soc will be holding a Karaoke Night on Tuesday and retro Gaming on Wednesday. More details on these will be in next weeks email so stay tuned!
