It's a gaming cafe and they have plenty of xboxs and PS3s upstairs. No need to bring anything but controller of choice and games of choice.

It's €2:50 an hour per console with a €20 deposit.

No maximum time but they close between 10 and 12 from my experience. Seems to depend on how busy they are.

Pretty much. I've never seen it busy enough that there hasn't been at one console of each type free. I remember at one of our first tournaments, there was a Call of Duty tournament on the same day and there was still consoles of each type available.

It's fairly straightforward tbh. Here's a small guide I did ages ago which will hopefully help a bit : http://streetfighter.ie/index.php/2010/05/07/a-guide-to-offline-events/

Also, if you're the first person to get there, tell them you're with the street fighter lads.

(Even if you're not there to play Street Fighter specifically this'll let them know you're here with the fighting game crowd).

If you see pikeys in wife beaters throwing shapes and punching lads in the ear don't be disheartened,Its just part of the atmosphere.

You are on the north side after all

Also when you go upstairs don't stray over to the left to the COD side,unless you are 12 year old scum bag,your balls haven't dropped yet,you've white socks pulled up over your tracksuit and you are trying to grow a tash.. or you're Bush

Seriously though,Have fun
