Oh Great [MENTION=507]manigamer[/MENTION] congrats and May you succeed in this venture
how is the gaming zone scene in lahore in karachi it is almost dead when i was there lots of GZ shutdown but they all were old gen pc based keeping old games
still not many ppl goes to GZ there in Karachi like it used to be a thing in a past

i have some more ideas for you
Now you should Bring the COKE FRIDGE there Plus a Vending Machine to Grab some quick meal while longer gaming session
plus you can create a Small bar or something to Serve Quickly made food which doesn't require that much cooking and frying like Sandwiches and Hot Dogs / Coffee

GZ is not completely dead here. Gamer still visit and the main purpose is to create get together scene mostly or tourneys. The ratio is not as it was used to be in past but still they do make some business.
Thats is good to hear can someone testify this for karachi as well ?

I second this. When you get a chance, definitely expand your gaming zone with such stuff.

There is a gaming zone here by the name of Heirarchy and they have their own bar, slushie machine, drinks and stuff. And in summers, that is a real bonus to have in your gaming zone. More popularity, more people, more success. :D

that is exactly what i thought i guess it died around 5 to 7yrs ago when the playdium got shutdown from Gulshan i guess Fariya might still be there
Now in Karachi you need to Open Food Business or Sheesha cafe

Karachi Gaming cafes died out long time ago. There was rumor that it was misued for something else, then gaming. Like the cyber internet cafes stories we used to hear. This business has always been in a doldrums as far I remember, A gaming cafe at a good recognized mall in karachi, also has such issues on a larger scale.

Actually i do agree with you. We have seen Gaming Cafes in lahore fade away with time due to poor management and lack of gaming knowledge. I guess in short one has to be a pure gamer like our beloved mani and must have the zest for quality management. Mani is doing a fantastic job regardless i do have have some suggestions which might be useful.

Mani. just wanted to know since you have started a dedicated gaming lounge of latest gen consoles. How is the response from the public? i mean is your expectations for visitor's influx being met or are above your expectations?

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
