Hey Doc,

Is the list of games pretty up to date on your site? Just want to check the status of the Time Soldiers and Heavy Barrel machines.

Hope to make it back out there soon!

Yes, the Game List was actually just updated yesterday. Heavy Barrel is up and running...Time Soldiers I have not gotten to that one yet. (Sorry)

Never been to this but it looks kinda cool. Just wish it wasn't so damn expensive. Still, might check it out if anyone is interested.

Mrosnwo, it was cool seeing you again at the movies. I never been to video games live show but I just ordered the bluray version for 15 at amazon. If I like it I will plan on attending a future show.

I watched the New Orleans show when it was featured on PBS a couple months ago. Liked the game music I recognized, but there was a lot less game video up on the monitors that I was interested in compared to the Final Fantasy show that rolled into town years back (save some trailers for StarCraft II & Halo?). The Mario & Zelda segments were probably the most iconic and well realized of the prepared audio + video combos... and the most nostalgic. Coulda used more Castlevania remix (and Streets of Rage techno?), but I guess that's what bands jamming on YouTube are for. In a similar vein, I would like to have seen the Star Wars video concert in person, but I'm not sure I would want to pay the hefty fee to attend.

I just wanna throw the date Saturday November 27 out there for a possible next meet-up/swap. 2 days after Thanksgiving, the day after Black Friday. Galloping Ghost or wherever else anyone wants to throw out there. Just getting a feeling for people's availability. I just think that or the week after could be good for trading coming off all the sales.

I'm hoping to finally make the next CAG meet up after missing the last few due to trips out of town. 11/27 would work for me. I need to clear out some games/PC components before my (expected) BF online orders arrive. I don't want to bring everything, but I can set up a list prior to the get together so I know what to bring.

I realize this is a bit north (and not Video Game related), but Bat 17 (http://www.bat17evanston.com/) tends to be a laid back place, with great food, liquor (and free coffee), and without an age restriction. It is also one block away from a CTA stop and two blocks away from a Metra stop.

I am fairly broke but would be willing to trade for those headphones. Anything in particular that you would be interested in?

(I am in Lisle so I say that is local enough haha)

Ive been to video games live twice and its amazing.

Unfortunately i cant make it to the galloping ghost unless its a sunday. Fridays and Saturdays i work late =\

Can anyone come over to my house (Skokie) and do some Tekken 6 or Street Fighter 4 trophies for me? THis is really pissing me off and I'd really appreciate it, I WILL PAY YOU FOR EACH COMPLETED TROPHY (except the Platinum lol)

Yeah, I do. I still haven't tossed it yet.

I don't know how many Chicago CAGs use Groupon but there is a gaming related deal for the next two days.

http://www.groupon.com/merchants/ign...-167?c=mdd&p=1

$12 for 6 hours of gaming at IGNITE Network.

If a bunch of people jumped on the deal, it would be pretty useful for a CAG meet up.

Non-game related but in the same vein as groupon, my uncle works for buyzooka.com. Same type of deal where they offer local discounts on a variety of things from restaurants to stores to tickets. I got in on the free admission to Brookfield Zoo one day. Shameless plug? Yeah, but it could help our cheapass community all the same.

I would be available that Sunday Nov 28. if possible. Not in anyway trying to make it that date but i would be willing/available to meet up Sunday.

I wouldn't be opposed to a Sunday as long as it's after the Bears play. Sorry, but their record could be 0-10 and I think I'm still watching it. I'm a Cub fan so I guess I'm a glutton for punishment in that way.

Believe me. You aren't alone there my friend.
