In August, we let you know that we were sponsoring Beta Bar, a gaming based bar by some of the former staff at Mana Bar. The long term plan is to get a full time venue that combines gaming and a bar BUT with an emphasis on the gaming. In the meantime, they will be holding regular events until they secure a venue.
Venue: Portland Hotel (Upstairs)
Date: Oct 31 to Nov 01
Length: 07:00 pm - 03:00 am
So we have 5 passes for Friday, 5 for Saturday and 5 for Sunday (Oct 31, Nov 1, Nov 2). It will be a huge night as PAX is in town.
With over 40 Board/Card Games, XBOX ONE, PS4, XBOX 360, PS3, Oculus Rift, Arcades, Guitar Hero on Stage, Retro Consoles, Special Guests, Giveaways, Competitions & cheap Beer!!
For 3 nights over PAX Aus we’re keeping the party going!
Pull up a chair, grab a jug of Beer or Cider and settle down with your friends for a game of Cards Against Humanity, Mario Kart, Settlers of Catan, Broforce or go for a spin on a Rollercoaster on our Oculus Rift Arcade!
Note: 18+ (It's a bar!)
OK, so to get a pass:
- Tell us in the comments below what retro gaming console or retro technology you still use and enjoy.
- Tell us your preference of which night you wish to attend.
We'll let you know on Thursday if you have won passes.
Moderators will judge best entries.
OK, so my most frequently used retro device is my iPad 1 which is 4 years old however I still use everyday for Twitter mostly but occasionally playing games. Works great, great battery.
My favourite retro gaming device was my N64. I played Mario Kart and Golden Eye for ages. Well, I currently have a Wii (with Wii Fit, Band Hero etc.) but it sits mostly idle by my TV.
