It’s been one of those weeks in the South African gaming scene. Negativity and bad blood reared its ugly head, and while we have opinions on the matters, this is not the place for it. We’ll rather address things in another article on another day. This is just the SA gaming news. And it’s still rather good. Sales Kalahari is…
Look, if you grew up as the metal and rap crossover kicked off, you probably can’t help but sing “Judgment Night” when thinking of the most recent 2upGamers event. Of course, I’m older than most, so maybe it’s just me, however, Judgment (or in this case, Judgement) was the word on many people’s lips at Trinity on 10 May. 2upGamers…
2upGamers is promising that Judgement will be coming at this event. And it is, if you excuse the American spelling of Judgment… The event has made a slight return to the naming conventions of old, with the 10 May event being dubbed ‘Judgement Night’ – no, Emilio Estevez will not be there trying to survive Denis Leary. The third event…
2upGamers appeared to do things in twos this time around, or at least in multipliers of that amount. It was the second event to be held at Trinity, but the day of the event was changes to the second Friday of the month. It then doubled the number of tournaments on offer. On the reverse it halved the number of…
**UPDATE** The event has been pushed out by a week to 12 April due to the venue double booking. **ORIGINAL STORY** The last 2upGamers may have only happened just over a week ago, but let’s be honest – it probably feels like a lifetime already. Fear not, people of the Cape, your favourite social gaming night out returns on 5…
Lots of great ideas are lucky to survive one month, let alone one year. Of course, it’s reasonable to assume that when one’s little baby makes it to that first milestone you should take yourself on a luxury holiday because it’s probably been a lot of hard work to get to that point and you deserve the time away from…
A plumber. Skid marks. The runs. Well, running. And gas. Probably not quite the things that make up an average Friday night around your place. However, these were the key ingredients to greet the around 80 attendees to the most recent 2upGamers event on this past Friday. A Plumber This 2upGamers’ event (other than being a regular gaming social) was…
Much like the previous 2upGamers event, I find myself in the difficult position of reporting – or writing waffle as some prefer to call my stream of haphazardly constructed sentences – and being directly involved in the event itself. Unlike the 6th Gen I might have got the balance partly right this time. However, I suspect that’s down to the…
For a community event about gamers and gaming, it would not be unfair to say that – on paper at least – the guest speaker line-up for the May’s 2upGamers 5th Round event seemed severely lacking in all things gaming. However, believing that to be the case would have been short-sighted and in uncivilised times would have been cause for…
