Gaming cafe in DHA Lahore... suggestions

[manigamer]

So guys was thinking about opening one

what would you guys like to see in it different from other cafe's ?

i know there's EV in dha and one in H block, i've only been to EV and they have got it al like pc's and 360's and such u know

but the thing is they only got one ps4 and one xbox one.

what about more than one ? ps4's or such ?

should the ps4 be with a 32inch led or bigger ?

so yeah post on...

Most importantly name ? !

Cookie lounge where they serve Cookies n Cream shakes and ice creams. As for gaming, 2 X1 and 2 PS4 each with a 32 inch screen. 15 PCs

Junk food. Tasty nachos with jalapenos, salsa and tangy cheese. Basically good food.

 

[Tech Reaper]

Collectors edition PS4s and Xbox Ones with same normal rates to play on

My two cents would be to keep the gaming zone active. By active i mean host regular tournaments, maybe 1 every 2 months, of different games.

if it was me seriously I would just have all Pc's and have an xbox controller hooked to all of them all the call of duty's now have controller support not to mention the dota scene etc and even the growing League of legends scene that would make you have all the systems essentially with just getting the Pc and the xbox controller

GamerzDen , In beginning u should start with 1 ps4 and 1 Xbox with 32 inch led with good amount of pc , and the key to success is always tournaments ,dota 2 should always be updated along with lol which still has less following than dota here is pak , call of duty and counter strike tournaments .
Another most imp thing lighting ur gaming zone should have those cool lighting give it a feel of a lounge ,

How about some female staff including receptionist, guide and hosts etc. fetching water, juices and junk food on demand.

haha @KDKHAN that could be considered
@cobby i had a name of that sorts thought out
@saadaziz that's nice aswell
@Tech Reaper ofcourse that could be but in the end ppl would enjoy playing games rather than watching the console only no i could display my own consoles there too

so it's mostly targeted on gaming pc's and less on consoles...

what i had thought was like 8-10 ps4's all hooked to a 32inch to 40inch screen seperately..

ps: what are the current rates going on for these xboxone and ps4's at cafe's lately ? pc gaming at ev was 140/hour that i know off, 360's i think 120/hour ?

A retro section for retro gamers like me with retro consoles like Sega Genesis, NES, Atari and SNES etc. This something no one has ever done before I think. Just my 2 cents.

PC gaming was 100/hr like 4 months ago at EV. When we went there, it was 120rs. Old gen consoles were 120 when PC was 100. Now it's around 150 I think. No idea about new gen

On a side note, console has always been more expensive per hour than PCs.

IMO, having more than 12 PCs is useless. Best matches are played 5v5. Even if you want to accommodate extra players, 2 more PCs are enough. If you say no there can be a scenario where there are 15-16 players wanting to play a team death match, then even having 20+ PCs won't do it for you.

What about 20 pcs for two 5v5 matches? That would work right?

Frankly speaking, BORGOR awaam of DHA is more interested in consoles than PCs.

[MENTION=24332]Tech Reaper[/MENTION] well i really didn't think of PC's at first but yes they are a necessity now in gaming cafe's atleast 8 or so.

wasn't the gaming hour for pc 140 if u get one hour and 2 hours to 240 ?

How do these things turn a profit? If you have 140rs per hour and you make 5k everyday, thats like 150k a month, given the rent, the salaries of the employees and the bills, you wont be making a lot considering 5k a day is a pretty big number. Unless I am missing something here?
