Just putting this out there: if we've got a compatible wheel handy, how about setting up a PS3 playing Gran Turismo 5 for the hot laps?

It's a better racing game than NFS, and you wouldn't have to sacrifice your PC.

My projector I think will work with the ps3 connectors.  Will check,  I don't have a wheel but I am sure someone might

An HDMI to DVI cable should do the trick if the projector hasn't got an HDMI input.

True, but remeber we were using a monitor for the person to drive on and then pushing image to the projector.  I think it would be eaiser to run it on a pc then we dont have to wait to cross while people are we driving.  Unless we can do dual with PS3

Unless we somehow make use of the pull-down screen at the end of the room? I like the idea of using the projector for driving instead of a monitor.

Maybe we should just bring the kit along, and see if we can get it set up in a sensible way. If it doesn't work out we can always fall back to the PC.

We've got some projectors lying about at work I can probably borrow if needed, including one of the tiny fag packet ones.

I do have a USB wheel and pedals
 somewhere I could be talked into donating.

Ooooh would you mind bringing the little one if you can Benny? If nothing else I thought about buying one but have no idea how good they are in reality so it would be good to see. Thanks

Have we got a game to replace the traditional CS tourney?
I do exactly what the little voices tell me to.

PC Specs:- Black box with some fans that go whirrr, a few lights, things inside that get warm, headphones, keyboard (a clicky one), mouse (with buttons and no squeak), disks (2-off SSD and HDD) and a monitor of sufficient proportions.

I didn't realise CS needed to be replaced...

I'd like to have a Black Ops comp if  there's enough interest, but I don't trust the game to work properly on the hotel network (AFAIK, we'd have to use our internet server) :(
