" I still go to the last granville arcade on granville and nelson to play SF3:3rd strike a few times a year and yeah, Vancouver is damn expensive, living downtown can be pretty brutal. I remember going to Tokyo and looking at rent prices, they looked about the same as Vancouver "
I live a few blocks from there! I lived in Tokyo for 2 years and the rent there is similar to anywhere in the world. You have cheap, average, and expensive housing everywhere.
" DUDERS! Never thought there's a shoutout to Vancouver Giantbombers. Though I am a little surprised there aren't many people keeping a close eye on the arcades' history around here. Especially of the interesting tale of CHQ. EDIT: I also find a meetup to be interesting of sorts. "
I remember the good old days of CHQ, Playdium, Station Square, Lesters, and RUSH.
Maybe if we all meet at Metrotown and head to CHQ and then come downtown for some eats and a lot of drinks.
@keyhunter: No he meant at Playland, that's why it's only open in the summer.
Vancouver isn't that bad man. I've lived in a few places and this is by far the easiest city to live in. The only way to live anywhere on Tim Horton's wages is to live in poverty. And I wouldn't call anything outside of the downtown core (places with affordable rent) even close to poverty.
A little less agro would be nice eh? _________________________________________________
Well I'm guessing there aren't many people interested, maybe we should just save it for PAX.
