  1. Good Day. I am writing to tell you about Breachlan, a privately run LAN party event held a few times a year in the Bridge of Don Scout hut in Aberdeen. Our next LAN party is set for the 9th - 11th April. We just recently finished a very successful Breachlan 13. We played loads of CSS, CoD4 , TF2 and Trackmania. We have new photos which are currently being put up to show you guys exactly what we are about. Signups for Breachlan 14 are now open with a discount if you pay before 1st March, making the event just 25 if you pay early. Visit our website at BreachLAN Site for more information or to signup. You need to create a forum account before attempting to pay for the lan. If you have any questions feel free to contact me in PM here, on Breachlan forums Thank you for reading.
  2. I have this pre-ordered on Steam. I never played the original, never got around to it. But I hope this will be good.
  3. Final Bump. The LAN is in two weeks. With tournamens confirmed as Unreal Tournament 2004, Left4Dead2 and Trackmania Nations we are gearing up nicely. With out L4D2 tournie planned to start after midnight the atmosphere should be amazing. We have some brand new network hardware ready for this lan and plans for brilliant Fri and Sat night parties. Muchos beer will be consumed. Hope you are convinced - As before, any questions, PM me here or on Breach forums. Thanks.
  4. Hi again. With four weeks to go, we have confirmed that Left4Dead2, CounterStrike Source and Unreal Tournament 2004 will be our Big Games and Tournaments. Last time we had a great laugh with L4D2 and Instagib UT2k4. It'l be the first time we have run CounterStrike Source as a Big Game. But the polls dont lie. We have the big dedicated server software installed on our servers and want to get the first Big Games of CSS going at Breach. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me here, or on Breachlan forums with any questions that you have. Thanks.
  5. Good Day. I am writing to tell you about Breachlan, a privately run LAN party event held a few times a year in the Bridge of Don Scout hut in Aberdeen.

But we have servers for just about every FPS installed on our pair of dedicated, gigabit gameservers. Breachlan is 30 plus a 1.50 charge if you pay via paypal.

  6. Slight resurrection, but I played this when it came out. It's a dark section that is supposed to be uncomfortable to play. The point is to demonstrate Makarov's evil nature And make your subsequent alliegance with him that more chilling Considering it on its own it's a pointless massacre which is just tasteless. But considering it as part of a story about war, it's just an uncomfortable moment in the telling of a story aimed at a mature audience. It's made more uncomfortable by the fact that the terrorists are well dressed in smart suits. They are cool and extremely calculated. One of the most chilling sights of that entire section was near the end of the massacre where you see one of the other terrorists standing on the balcony shooting over the edge at all the people down there. It's completely cold and emotionless and a stark comment on the terrorists attitudes to the disposable nature of human life. Like, perhaps the exact emotions that should be exhibited by a game depicting a terrorist attack. I dont for one second buy the it's like GTA arguement. At no point in GTA is the player asked to gun down as many unarmed, defenceless, screaming and begging civillians. And if the player chooses to do this of their own accord the police very quickly start chasing the player down and then swiftly escalate to sending helicopters and heavily armed swat teams. The civillians also do not beg for their lives, nor do they run away screaming in fear. Yes it was controversial but the only thing I have to say to that is, "We can have all entertainment completely appropriate for every single age, race and sex in the country, or we can have content aimed at different ages / races and mark the content appropriately so people make informed choices on what content the want to play" The former would result in some pretty bloody boring entertainment. The only thing we would be able to watch is CBBC.
  7. Hey, good to see that we might have a few interested players. It really is not a trap. We have been running events at the Bridge of Don Scout Hut since 2001 if I remember correctly. And for Breach12 we have some special stuff planned to make it the best yet. If you guys want any more information then register on our forums and ask away. If you don't have paypal then you can still come. Just PM me on the Breachlan forums and we can arrange for you to pay on the door Our website is, BreachLAN Site Hope I have inspired you to come to our event. We operate completely not for profit and any profit that is made is invested straight back into our equipment to make sure we have the best equipment to host LAN parties. Thanks for reading.
