And it certainly was that! A nice mixture of DS’s and PSP’s was on display through out within the rather charming pub, The Macbeth. Our group arrived fairly early before the intended time of 9pm to do some warming up before hand. The real party kicked off closer to 10pm when the 10 player bomberman kicked in on the projector. As one would hope, it was mayhem! There is just something about playng bomberman with a bunch of people. Ofcourse the DS players were near the pool table at the back of the pub enjoying some rather loud games of tetris and mario kart as well. Gotta love it!

There was also much merriment of chit chatter between a whole host of different characters with different interests in gaming including a Phd student in games of some sort (hi allie!), a Gamestation store manager (hey Daniel!) along with his posse and the famous DS:London gang (I know, I know…shameless plug). Discussuing the real important subjects to a gamers heart including how best to squeeze in Halo 3 on release next weekend (drink, drugs, pulling sickies or all?), Mario Galaxy – all hype?, gaming music one should have on their Ipod, 2nd life – easier to make money in then real life? and as well lots of other things that would take longer then my attention span can handle to write about.

All in all, a damn great night and round of applause for the organisers. Can’t wait for the next one!

PS it would have been a better night if it wasn’t for the fact my camera’s memory card corrupted and I lost ALL my pictures I took!!!! Not happy joey at all (
