Gaming in Minnesota
One of my favorite Minnesota attractions is their festival of games. It is held in a different part of the state every year so that it can highlight different attractions. The biggest draw of the festival is when all the gamers hook their computers into the same network and play different shoot ‘em up games. These games can become long and involved and can sometimes take up hours and hours at a time. One of the main reasons that is moves all the time is to allow spouses and children a different attraction that they can go see when they aren’t watching their parent play. The group realizes that although they can keep entertained for an all day stretch but that the family members not playing can get bored easily. The event is open to anyone with a computer, but be prepared this group is as well practiced as any I’ve seen. In some of the games where groups of players take on other groups of players the player groups have been formed for years. As a newbie it is not easy to defeat a group that has been together for years and can almost read each others minds. I suggest bringing your own group to the competition.
