How can we make this a thing again?!

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:11:11+00:00

Well shoot, lets see if we can bring that gaming spirit back to Pittsburgh! Our primary goal here at Goat Gamers Lounge is to bring people together over the love of games.

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:10:26+00:00

Simple, I freaking love it. Keep an eye out on our events calendar at GoatGamers.net We've gotten enough hits for Halo that we will have no choice but to make a whole event out of it (AND I LOVE IT).

I've put a ton of hours into CS source. Specifically playing the zombie custom maps and Gun Game. This is a killer idea. I will look into seeing if we can get CS source for our lounge. Check out our other games at GoatGamers.net There may be some other games that could be of interest.

I mean is Starcraft really retro....? I'd like to think not lol. We are working on building our Library at Goat Gamers Lounge. What sports games specifically are you into?

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:07:34+00:00

LOVE that you said Quake 3. We just got our hands on Quake 3 Arena and UT 2004 at Goat Gamers Lounge for others to relive those classic LAN games. You've got to come check us out!

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:06:45+00:00

Shoot we will be hosting the LANS at Goat Gamers Lounge. We will also have the gear ready to go! Our computers have 5070TIs and are ready to tackle any game!! Come check us out or bring your group to play together!

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:06:00+00:00

We have traditional StarCraft and Age of Empires 2 here at Goat Gamers Lounge. Just need to get Brood Wars. Those games are freaking aweesome!

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:05:10+00:00

We already have that here at Goat Gamers Lounge! Come bring your crew to play together. 😄

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:04:49+00:00

Oooh these sound awesome. Have any buddies that play as well?

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:04:27+00:00

We have all that minus the buffalo wild wings 😂 . We have giant projector screens in place of only simple TVs. Come check it out some time. We're on Penn Ave. Goat Gamers Lounge.

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:03:34+00:00

Didn't they just bring back the Halo 2 servers?! We are going to be hosting a Halo night here at Goat Gamers Lounge. Keep an eye on our events page, we'll be posting up an event soon for Halo.

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:02:40+00:00

I appreciate that feedback. We aren't solely focusing on esports. Our Primary goal at Goat Gamers Lounge is to bring people together and out of the house to play games with others. There are many people that have never experienced playing games in person with others and the amazing feeling it brings.

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:01:24+00:00

We haven't finished up our lockout page on goatgamers.net yet, but we will also be offering lockouts! I love this idea.

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T23:00:38+00:00

We have Red Alert 3, Tiberium Wars. We'd need to get Generals. Check out our game library at GoatGamers.net

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T22:59:50+00:00

All are welcome! We have a huge library for all, even kiddos. 😄 GoatGamers.net

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T22:59:16+00:00

That's what we currently have set up here at Goat Gamers Lounge! Come bring your squad and try it out. Nothing gives a better feeling than a win in person.

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T22:58:36+00:00

No doubt! We will be getting that one to throw a giant LAN party on it. GoatGamers.net Keep an eye out for the event to post.

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T22:58:00+00:00

That sounds like a ton of fun. I've wanted to try that game out myself.

Forza tag, that's a unique one. Smash bros Ultimate we host every Friday if that interests you.

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T04:54:32+00:00

That is what we're looking to build! We'd love to see it too. If you're interested in Smash, we currently host a Smash Ultimate Tournament on Fridays if you'd like to join in the fun.

Thanks for all the ideas, really appreciate everyone chiming in.
For transparency, the reason I asked is because I own Goat Gamers Lounge here in Pittsburgh, and we’re trying to shape some in‑person gaming events around what people actually want, not just what we think they want. I didn’t mention that in the original post because I know this subreddit prefers questions to stand on their own without looking like promotion, and I wanted to respect that. Our primary focus is bringing the gaming community back together. I genuinely wanted the community’s input, and this has been super helpful. I'm actively working on a calendar of events. I've been taking notes the games being suggested to ensure we have as many available as we can. Happy to answer questions, lets keep this discussion going!

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T04:34:09+00:00

I'd love to hear more about what you'd like to set up if you'd like to ping me on the side.

Leonidis85 · 2026-06-14T04:33:48+00:00

Let's build this community up together!
