Would a Video Game Bar or Lounge Work In Lubbock?

Love video games? Love boozing it up with your buddies? Your perfect place to gather outside of home could be on the horizon.

Looks like a new concept is sweeping the country as video game-themed bars are popping up all over.

The AFK Lounge just popped up in California. What exactly is it? Well, unlike the cybercafes of the 90s, these 21+ bars have hundreds of PCs electronically linked together.

Patrons can either participate or watch the gaming action on big screens around the room. While AFK specializes in ESports titles, I suppose any video game is fair...er, game.

What kind of games would you be more interested in playing? PC-based sporting games, modern warfare stuff popular on XBox and PlayStation consoles? Perhaps 80s classics like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Asteroids or Pole Position, reworked and networked to allow more than just the original 1-4 players?

Comment below and let us know if you'd like to see this type of video game bar come to Lubbock.
