Hey everyone,
Before mentioning this weeks games I just wanna give a big welcome to all our new members. And a big thanks to everyone who rejoined this year. We've registered over 200 people making this the biggest year in GamesSoc's history, so a big thank you to everyone and hopefully its the start of a great year. :D
So just to let everyone know whats happening in GamesSoc this week.
1.Console Gaming. 2.Lab Gaming. 3.Traditional Gaming.
1.Console Gaming. This week we are holding Console Gaming just inside the doors of the Venue, (beside the nuBar) downstairs in the Hub from 2pm. We'll have something for everyone there including our PS3 with Soul Calibur IV, and of course the infamous ROCK BAND! \m/. We'll also have our Xbox 360s out with games like Halo 3 which we'll have a tournament coming up in soon so come along and get practicing. Also we'll have our Wii, on which we'll be playing Super Smash Bros., and Mario Kart Wii. So there is definitely something for everyone and no matter what your gaming experience or interests you'll find something you'll enjoy. Free refreshments will be provided for all our members as they are every week so hope to see you all there.
2.Lab Gaming. Lab Gaming will continue this week on Thursday Evening in C204 in Henry Grattan. We had a great turn out last week with some great laughs and free pizza! We have loads of games to suit your interests if you prefer your PC games, which include TrackMania Nations, Age Of Empires II, StarCraft, Counter Strike 1.6, Worms and in the next few weeks we'll also be adding CounterStrike:Source, CoD4 and BF2. So if you've drank your weeks money by Tuesday, you can recover and save some by coming on Thursday nights.
3.Traditional Gaming. This continues tonight in CG20 in Henry Grattan from 6pm and Wednesday night in the Seminar Room upstairs in the Hub. We play loads of great games here including Diplomacy, Ticket To Ride, Railroad Tycoon, Citadels and many more. So there will be something for everyone, so make sure to come along and have some fun. Free refreshments will be provided for everyone, because we're nice like that. :D
Everyone also make sure to hit up the forums at http://games.dcu.ie/forums and discuss your favourite games. You can also make any suggestions here as to what games you would like to see at our different gaming sessions during the week. We will try our best to accommodate everyone. If anyone has any queries or questions don't hesitate to ask us in person or mail us at games@redbrick.dcu.ie
