Currently Casual meet ups happen in Dublin at a rate of about 1 a week
Each Saturday from 2 - 6pm @ The Xtreme Gaming Centre on Lower Liffey Street

I'll Try keep this thread updated with whats going on; The next meet up, any changes, forthcoming tournaments etc etc.

Generally the price is €5 and Pints are often had afterwards.
Well I always do anyway.

Here is it on a map

From Busaras (the Central Bustation of Dublin) It is a 5-10 minute walk towards and past Liberty Hall (tallest building) and down by the Quays till you get to the Ha'penny Bridge.

The Nearest LUAS Stop is Jervis

From the Connelly Train station Take Talbot street until you reach O Connel Street and head south to reach the quays. Follow the Quays east until you hit the ha'penny bridge and its down a side street to your right.

This is the bridge. From this Angle The Xgc Centre would be on the Left hand side.



If you ever happen to be in dublin and fancy some games, some of the people from boards.ie fighting game community will probably meet up with you regardless of the day of the week it is.
They are a friendly lot.

This looks intersting... do you use consoles or cabinets???

I might try and make it over towards the end of the year :)

Hi, We use consoles (there are no real arcades in Ireland)

Its an lan centre.internet cafe.

Up stair stairs is console only. roughly 40 consoles i think.

We play on both Ps3 and 360, though the majority of players are on 360.

In tournaments etc the players will lend sticks, the only problems is when someone insists on a console specific pad, currently we are trying to get pad players to at least use the madcatz pad (which is the same on either console.

As i said that's only a few people. nearly everyone plays on sticks.

If you aren't from Ireland and happen to be visiting be sure to post on that forum (boards.ie) and some people whould play you ouside of regular meetups.

Hi just a message to everyone to let you know whats going down with the Irish SF community.
