Well I was in Glasgow today and decided to visit Microplay the gaming place. I had been introduced to the place a few years back by a friend and was hooked to the awesome computers all equipped with gaming mice and headsets. I remember at the time being in awe of the place and it inspired me to build my own gaming pc but thats another story.

Over the years the place has moved up the road so to speak. It now has a larger premises and the computers have been updated from a few years ago (to keep up with demanding games). I forgot how comfy the seats were! Sitting there with my headset on and my hand on a Razer gaming mouse I felt a bit geeky…but it was a good geeky feeling! I loaded Counter Strike Source and was away (they still had my login details file…I was impressed). The feeling experienced when you make that headshot with minimum to no lag…..absolute PWNAGE! At home my computer is connected to the net using Wifi and I experience lag from my ISP aswell on CSS but in Microplay it was a different story. I was at the top of my teams table the whole time for the hour I played which was good for me. Im defo thinking of going back their especially since it now costs £2 AN HOUR!!!! it used to be £3.50 a few years back. For anyone wanting to play all day their doing a day deal for £15.
