text: Online gaming seems to be slowly but surely squeezing the life out of the Laserquest scene, but in all honesty it really can't compete. Coming here with a group of pals is quite simply one of the most fun things you can do, and the best part of all is that everyone, no matter how placid in real life, will become exceptionally serious, competitive and aggressive for the duration of the game.\n\nI came here with a big group once not long after leaving school. We did a team game and I remember me and my pal Alan finding a sweet spot where we could pick everyone else off without them being able to get us. It totally ruined it for everyone else, and a massive, swear-filled argument ensued afterwards, which even resulted in us getting torrents of abuse from a couple of 10 year old kids who'd joined our game.\n\nIt still makes me laugh to this day.
