I heard about a place in New York where you can play Xbox and other video games by the hour.

I cant find it via google. Does anyone know more details? It sounds like fun.

Last time I was in the palisades mall I saw a place that did that. They had big comfy couches and lots of huge screens with every game you could want. I think it was like 25 bucks an hour but I'm not sure. It was a long time ago.

Internet cafes (at least in Israel) have gaming pcs+the works for gamers far from home in need of a fix.

Would a young lady appreciate such a date?

If your next door neighbor got drunk on Purim, and then shechted, cooked and ate your pet duck, buying a giant flat screen TV to make him jealous is a much more productive way of getting even than, say, fire-bombing his car. That said, Chazal would probably have recommended you do t'chias hameisim on the duck. ~krumlikeapretzel

Sure though it doesn't seem conducive to really getting to know someone.

(But then again, dates can just be FUN every once in awhile, too...)

No. In fact, losing may show a side of her you wouldn't otherwise see...
