BLR is probably my favorite multiplayer game on the PCE game. The game is so easy to pick up and play. It is so cool to fall through a hole in the ground and reappear at the top. :)

Lode Runner on the PCE, no thanks. But Battle Lode Runner is a lot of fun IMO because of the multiplayer option.

I meant Battle Load Runner.  :mrgreen:

I'm in - probably taking the Friday prior off of work in case a group is going to hit up Chicago / Galloping Ghost.

I'm bringing some stuff to swap/trade - any need for people to bring consoles/games with for playing?

Hey Jeff, it was nice to meet you at MGC. I am glad to hear that you will be coming to the VGS as well.

As a matter of fact, we will be taking two groups of people from PCEFX to Galloping Ghost Arcade friday night. We should be arriving between 5-6 PM. The address of the arcade is in the second post of this thread.

Also make sure to join us for some deep dish pizza after the conclusion of the VGS saturday night:

Everyone is welcome to join us for these two get togethers as well. :)

SignofZeta: What a quintessentially PCEFX thread. Someone complains about nothing, multiple Bible-length posts discussing who's a bigger a$$hole follow. You're both pretty big a$$holes. Let's call it a tie.

Sounds awesome - G.G. is closer to me than Chicago so I'd probably just meet everyone there.

What are people doing for hotel on Friday night? staying in Lombard?

I think the Fairfield is sold out for that night. Not sure what other hotels are in the area.

My ticket has been purchased and hotel room has been reserved!  I didn't run into any issues getting a room at the Fairfield.  Can't wait to see y'all!

I'm sure you'd like that, champ. Maybe you could show us your mad skills in Side Arms as well. :P

Awesome rofl! I hope you have a safe trip and we look forward to meeting you. :)

Any update on this?

Is everyone meeting up to go to the arcade on Friday?  If so, time and place or just meet at the arcade?

We have various plans to run around that day. I think the plan is to hit Galloping Ghosts sometime in the early evening, possibly around 6:00-7:30 PM. Unfortunately, none of these plans are firm just yet, especially as far as timing goes.
