Computer and Games Shops

• Buying games at The Cheque Centre. Very cheap pricies. Also sold them a bundle. They always have stuff n junk arround.
• 'game' in the maltings sells millions of playstation games and a few pc games
• Games Workshop??!?!?!!?!? Smells of male sweat and enthusiasm.
• Game - duh!
• GAME
• I think there's a Game in the excuse for a shopping centre that is the Maltings. Games Workshop is near the brand new Starbucks and is frequented by slightly nerdy people who collect dungeons and dragons models.
• Game in the Maltings. !
• Game, beware of the game cru, they all do karate!!! NNNOOOOOOOOO, haahahha! also chaos city is full of people who havent been taught social skills!
• LAN Parties? This guy called Paul Pepper organises a regular "Redneck LAN Party". It involves, well, apart from all the LAN, a 24 hour meat barbeque, and the letting off of air guns all around the place. It's like a redneck fighting den run by geeks. Whiskey, sawdust, meat, guns, and multi-player gaming.
• games?
• game
• Games Workshops. Loser virgins. The lot of them!
• -GAME and HMV are the only 2 in town and that makes my sad
• I was a saturday worker in Software Plus for just under a year, and now were closed I'm free, free I tells ya hahahaha. Whats really funny is that 3 days before we got shut down by the evil men in our headoffice I took a £45 deposit on a couple of games from a small boy of no more than 12 Muhahahaha come get your money little boy, but you can't HA! Ahh the fun we had, oh and I'd like to say that I officially though 90% of our customers were twats, yes that means YOU, I couldn't say it then when you were at the cash desk trying to get a discount on a £20 game but I was laughing at you inside, LAUGHING. Hahahahahaha, what the? NO put me down, I didn't mean it, really, PUT ME DOWN, GAH, grrrrrr
• I like buying games in St. Albans.. Games Workshop is the coolest! I once went there when I was drunk. Boy, that was a mistake. I threw up on the king of the goblins. Then he started singing, and threw my little son Danny into the bog of eternal stench..
• Games Shops are all well and good, but Games Fields are the best, especially for my Jack Show that takes place on one. I call it "Keegan's Games Field Jack SHow"
• I think the only decent games shop in da UK is "I bleed for me and mine", which is in St. Albans. They play with you.
• if you mean computer games HMV
• There is a shop just for games called software plus, howerver they dont sell many games because the shop is a load of bearded thats why IT HAS SHUT DOWN HA HA HAAAA dont give me that 'sorry we dont have it in' bullshit, what sort of games shop sells about 6 games??? I ask u. (HMV is Good) A geezer at my place of education does ps games for seven quid, u name it he get it.
• Software Plus has closed down. Apparently it is all because Fido (Saturday Staff) destroyed it because Helen (who is an aries) is going out with Adrian (who isn't, but is a director) He made a growling sound, and enveloped the shop in his own flesh. He now carries it about with him like a mutant child.
• Software Plus has now closed down! Apparently, it was due to a rogue Saturday staff member.
• There is a Games Workshop in Heritage Close, but for all you Pokemon needs go to Chaos City Comics next door.
• Software plus in the Maltings. Games unlimited also in the Maltings but in the upper level.
• Games Workshop is pretty smart.

LAN Parties, Tournaments, LAN Game Cafes, WiFi Meets, PSP/DS Meets

• Paul Pepper and Robert Ennis spin those LANs like no other, they have all the connections and the Unreal Tournaments, and you should see the beads of concentration in their forheads as they make the Local Area Networks dance for them.
• There's an amazing LAN Game Cafe on Victoria Street called the Victoria Cafe, go down there any afternoon and it's packed with LAN entheusiasts keen on gaming the night away. Plus, they sell most tasty food and drink there as well. Be sure to ask for the "Party Special".. it's worth every penny.
• My idea of hell is a repetition of last time..kill me before they make me go again...geek suicide is rife....mind your back

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.

If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.

Have Your Say...

You can tell us more about St Albans. This is also the method to use if you want to correct some of the information already here. (But please remember you're not mailing the person who actually wrote whatever-it-is.)

You can use the add an event form to tell us about events happening in St Albans.
