First Post
Help! I know I've done this thread before, but this time there's a slight variation. I know there are gamers in boston (::angry stare::,i can sense them..) but for the life of me I can't figure out where. Does anyone have locations in Boston where I could go? I mean, I'm talking about gaming shops, people searching for gamers, and the what not. I have a very poor sense of direction and tend to end up lost. I guess what I'm really asking for is location with an address. Any help would indeed be greatfully accepted.

The Bostongamers Yahoo group is a great resource for finding local gamers and the places where they congregate. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bostongamers/

Try the following shops. The first two definately have bulletin boards on which you can post a gamers wanted message, while the second two definatley have games happening in the store:

Pandemonium Books & Games, take the Red Line to Harvard Square, walk down JFK St and it's inside The Garage mall, on your left just before you get to Mt. Auburn St.

The Compleat Strategist, right across from the Christian Science Center on Mass Ave, between the Symphony Stop on the E (Green) line and the Hynes/ICA stop on the other Green lines.

Your Move Games in Somerville. Take the Red Line to Davis Square, walk back up Highland Ave. They just moved to a new location on the left right beyond the Brooks pharmacy.

Danger Planet, as mentioned above, is in Waltham, near the center. You can take the commuter rail there or any number of buses, check www.mbta.com for details. If you do so, from the common or commuter stop, walk across the bridge and up Moody Street, take a right onto Spruce a few blocks up, and it's right there next to the post office. If you drive, there is a pay lot right next to the store on Crescent Street, although it is often full.

While, you're in Waltham, check out Outer Limits. Walk back to Moody St from Danger Planet, take a right and it's up a couple of blocks on your right. I don't think that they have a board, and they definately don't have games going on there, but it's a cool store worth checking out. They're primarily a comic and collectibles store but have a small but decent selection of new games and a bunch of old used games.
