Guys can we please get back to talking about Rampart?

What do you think the hardest part is about setting up a place like this is?

I've wanted to do it for a very long time, but have never been able to figure out how I approach the bank for a loan and say "I would like a loan to open up a place for people to play video games they can play at home for free, but I'll charge them money to play it here."

For the PC players that bring their own rigs, do you still charge them?

Have you been able to secure any sort of sponsorship deals (or other kinds of deals) with suppliers such as sony or microsoft or even PC builders? What about deals with Gamestop (like a discount for buying 10 copies of every major game that comes out or something like that)?

Have you tried selling food on premises also? Small stuff of course, like you could/would get in a billiards type environment (chips, maybe hot pretzels).

Do you think traditional arcades on on their way out and this is the way of the future?

Would you be interested in franchising? Setting up similar shops under your brand in different cities?

Do you test the waters with different consoles? Try stuff like setting up gameboy's/vita's and find that nobody plays them, so you get rid of them and make room for more played consoles?

If/when you hold tournaments, how does that factor in to gambling laws?

Edit: With everything being online multiplayer now instead of couch multiplayer, you must have a decent internet connection to be running all of these. What kind of connection do you have? Also, how do you deal with PS + subscriptions and MS Gold subscriptions?
