Joining the prestigious ranks of Namco Funscape, Las Vegas Soho and The Four Quarters ; VEGA London (as it is known) is located in the basement of a building known from the outside as VEGAS. It represents the building’s video game arcade section (the ground level floor is populated with gambling machines, in a similar setup to the Las Vegas arcade in Soho). VEGA London is a miniature arcade, yes, but what it lacks in size it more than makes up for with in-demand arcade titles. Combine this with being situated in one of the most achingly cool neighborhoods in Central London (Angel, Islington) and you begin to appreciate what a formidable little pocket rocket this awesome little venue is".
Player2's regular eSports wrap up looks at two very different Street Fighter tourney's from opposite sides of the globe.
Looking forward to this and eagerly awaiting the chance to try the stream out via ps home. Surprised Microsoft haven't done this with MLG and halo but I guess 10 year olds or soccer moms aren't interested in mlg so Microsoft wouldn't see it a worthy investment anymore.
Stream is great so far. Very good quality. I'm gonna try PSHome leater on
