LAN gaming centres

In Katong, many students may know where to find LAN gaming centres as they are widespread. There are many LAN gaming centres in Katong but there are only a few LAN gaming centres that allow students to play in their uniform. The prices for the LAN gaming centres are approximately $1.50 to $2 per hour. The most popular games played in LAN gaming centres seem to be "DOTA", "Counter Strike", "Command and Conquer" and the new game "Hellgate". However, there are some people who also play Maple Story there. Most of the LAN gaming centres are dark and covered in posters or tinted glass. Therefore, it may be difficult to see inside. Examples of such LAN gaming centres can easily be found in Katong Shopping Center.



Futhermore, some LAN gaming centres may only allow members to enter and to play there, you have to sign up as a member. There is a LAN gaming centre in Katong Shopping Center which also have Playstation 2s and Playstation 3s.



However, there are similar stores known as internet cafe. Instead of providing only games, internet cafes allow you to surf the internet and sip a cup of coffee or tea. They seem to charge $1 per hour which includes a free cup of drink.
