Local Battles Gaming Center

For $ 3.50/hour, best place to kill time. Has a long, diverse selection of PC games and XBox games. So insteading of playing my usual games, just tried different new games. The chairs were super comfy, everything looked brand new and modern. Wish it was in NYC too!

Great place to hang out, kill time. Good choice of snacks and drinks. Game updates on point. Open late. Awesome service

Took my boyfriend here last weekend for his birthday, and it was one of the best experiences we’ve ever had.
My boyfriend is a huge gamer, and wanted to try Destiny on the XBox One for a while. I figured I’d take him to Local Battles to experiment before diving into such an expensive system. Little did we know that when we got there, we could each play our own separate games and switch out as many times as we’d like!
The guy behind the counter was also super sweet. He patiently explained how Local Battles worked, and helped us set up accounts, and our computers to play. Each time we had a question (and there were definitely a ton), he was kind enough to come from behind the counter to offer instruction.
The snacks here are also super cheap. They have ICEES, hot pockets, corn dogs, candy, crackers, etc. And Gatorade was only $ 2!
Finally, the space itself if fun. It was extremely clean, the chairs were comfy, and it was fun to see the artwork painted straight onto their walls.
Can’t wait to come back soon!

I’ve never been to a place like this. They have found a niche and could be trailblazers. Just had a kid birthday party there and they do everything. We bring the cake, favors and kids. They supplied drinks, pizza, decorations, and games. They provide pc, xbox one, and xbox 360 (I think, all I remember is Nintendo and Sega). They only have 2 parties per weekend (ONE per day) so get your reservations in early.
Many of the parents will probably bring their kids back. It’s an easy way to bond with your kids, teens, etc. It’s on a block where your pass it easily. It’s tinted windows hide the fun. They need more business, it seems word of mouth is going well though.

One of the very few gaming LAN centers out there period! It’s a elegant location with vibrant colors and did I forget to mention almost a huge majority of tv dedicated to gaming?
PROS
–it is a LAN center so that means xbox 360s, ps3s, PCs can all go online and you can go with a team or a group to place either online or other people playing the same game
–they have different events for fps (first person shooters) and for the fgc (fighting game community) I also can’t forget about PC Esports guys out there they throw events for that too.
–they do have food in the location (hot pockets frozen food) for a cheap price.
— you can stay and play any game you like per hour (weekend have a different rate same with special events)
–commute is very simple for those who live in ny.
— they have astro headsets that way you are not disturb by the next person that might be playing a different game than you.
CONS
–at night (after 11pm) the buses and trains are that frequent so you will have to wait if you miss ur times.
Overall I really enjoy going to this place every time there’s a special event. Come check this place out and get your gaming senses on!

Playing Diablo here beats playing at home where the highest fps I get is like 25.
The only thing I dislike about this place is that every time I stop in it is filled with high school kids, yelling at each other in Korean, while playing LoL. (Stop playing that garbage game!)
Local battles makes me think back to the LAN centers of my youth — minus the cloud of cigarette smoke, the blacked out windows, and the delightful sounds of Counter-​Strike 1.6.

The Last LAN center standing in the Jersey/​Tri-​State Area @ least the Last Good one stAnding hope It keeps on giving us digital gamers who enjoy lanning hope that it will stay forever going and possibly be bigger one day and branch out cause PSN & Microsoft networks need more places community wise besides digital realm seclusions. nothing like fkn up some kids and lettin em know they dont know what is what but they dont know what is what they just strut wat da fk? gg -.- love this spot k.

Overall a very cool place to play video games. They have Xbox 360 and PC available with an assortment of games to choose from. The screens are a nice size with really comfortable seats. Plenty of snacks and refreshments.
I do wish the speakers could go louder. With the high noise level of the other customers I could barely hear my own game, even with headphones (just remember to bring your own or $ 2 extra).
Unfortunately, there is no parking lot and that forced me to leave early since I did not want leave my car parked in the street for an extended period of time.
Pros: Inexpensive, big screens, comfy seats, snacks/​drinks, large play room.
Cons: No parking lot, noise level.

A cool spot to play Xbox360 and PC games. Refreshments and snacks available, and a pizza place next door. Price is reasonable and they also do repairs. It’s good for us to go and play co-​op, which we can’t do at home since we only have one console! :-)

This place is awesome!!! The place is very clean, air conditioned and well ventilated. The people running the place are very friendly. The chairs are very comfortable and the snacks and energy drinks are reasonably priced. Up to date game selection and multiple copies to play against friends. I can’t wait to go back again.
