I've never been to one of those places but I've heard about them. I think we may even have one or two somewhere around here but the midwest is always a few years behind with that kinda stuff. Anyway, do all these places use the internet? I thought they just set up their own LAN to play on.
And if you are gonna setup up a place like this you are gonna have to put up so much money the price of the games will be pretty insignificant. Just think, the computers alone will be about a grand each, then you need to buy the OS for them, all the network equipment to hook it all up, rent and utilities for the store, desks/tabkes and chairs etc etc. Damn, you would probably need 50 grand just to get started...
