There's one in Dallas, and it's a restaurant & bar with pool & foosball tables & dart boards. I was there once a long time ago. Kinda cool.
I like to sit out on the front porch, where the birds can see me, eating a plate of scrambled eggs, just so they know what I'm capable of.

My wife and I just went on a double date with her friend and friend's new boyfriend. Food was pretty damn good. Huge game room, and they had the football game where you throw footballs through the holes and it tracks your yardage and points. I LOVE that game. I'd kick anyone on this boards ass at that game. :wink: Fun time, but the joint is like an hour away from where we live.

If you have ever been to a Gameworks or Sega Amusement center it's pretty much the same idea.

Its pretty cool. Most of them are between 50,000-75,000 square foot buildings. Large bar right in the middle of the gameroom. Restaurant in the front. Pool rooms. Just about every type of game you could want to play. Can be expensive though for a night of playing video games.

Went to the one in Omaha, Nebraska and had a blast. Got trashed and played video games for a few hours. The place can be very expensive...especially when you're gambling on skee-ball while drunk. :lol: :oops: :twisted:

Yep, it's just across the river from Camden, NJ.
It's an easy stop for any of you checking out the show on 8/26 at the Susquehanna Bank Center.

Take the ferry from Penn's Landing on the Philly side to the show in Camden, then ferry it back to Philly, walk a few blocks north and get your game and hunger on at D&B's.

There is one not too far from me. I've been a couple of times, but the last time was about 7 years ago. It was fun, but it was pricey. It's not somewhere I would want to go all the time. The one by us used to have "mystery dinner theater" and my dad was in one of the performances. :) It is very much like an adult Chuck E. Cheese, but with better food. My daughter loves video games so she's dying to go there. A lot of the games are more adult-oriented, so she's too young.

We had one in South Glos, but it went bust. I couldn't understand it because it always seemed busy. It's now a bowling alley. Hate bowling.
