They'll have computers, tutors (as a replacement for personal trainers?) and pros on staff to teach you how to play the games.I guess calling it a gym now instead of an "Internet cafe" is the next logical step after it became E-sports instead of just "playing computer games". Will the tutors yell at you like some kind of drill sergeant? L2P NOOB![Ed.

canopic jug writes:Deutsche Welle (DW) is reporting on a historical reenactment, of sorts, on a large scale. Since 1997 the Guédelon castle about 10km from the village of Treigny, France has been in the process of being built using exclusively methods and materials like those used in the Middle Ages. Stones are quarried, shaped, and laid by hand. Nails wrought in smithies on site, along with all metal tools. Paints are mixed from traditional materials, and so on. Even after almost 25 years of progress, the completion of the 13 century style castle is still a long ways off and estimated to be in 2030.
