Are we there yet?

EXCITEMENT GROWING

We have taken delivery of a stack of gaming gear, our liquor licensing is all wrapped up, we've had some promising staff interviews and media interest, and we've begun bolting stuff to the walls. 

WE HAVE TOYS

Boom! a pair of 60" screens ready to provide latest gen console gaming and online and local tournaments spectating. These bad boys will occupy pride of place near the front of the venue and will have a couch & coffee table style seating arrangement.

Four 40" screens will be cater to the rest of our shared console stations. Three of these will be arranged on the bench opposite the bar, with the fourth towards the rear of the venue.

We decided to go with the Xbox 360 as the mainstay of our console range, but PlayStation and Wii is also represented. Retro consoles will be added as we go. If anyone has an unused retro console gathering dust it could find a good home at Reload.

Big pile of gaming gear. Here you see consoles and controllers (boxes of controllers!). The photo is a bit dark but you get the idea. Not pictured are a couple of PlayStation that we already unboxed.

We will have a row of six 22" screens each hooked up to a X360 for network multiplayer action (read: shooters).

Guitar hero!

PC Gaming Master Race is not forgotten. A Set of five Gaming PCs with i5-4460 CPUs and R9 270x graphics cards will give them the silky smooth frames they desire. They will be loaded with the big eSports titles like Counter-Strike, DOTA 2, League of Legends, and StarCraft II. Please don't spill beer in the keyboards (or inside the case for that matter).

The console-powered arcade cabinets have been picked up from Melbourne and are en route to Reload.

 

APPLICATIONS ARE STILL OPEN FOR BARTENDING ROLES @ RELOAD

 

You don't have to be this guy (please don't be this guy, I'm scared of this guy), but you do need to have significant experience, be able to handle high volumes, know your way around a cocktail, and enjoy your games. If this is you, please send your CV to info@reloadbar.com.au.

 

Now if you will excuse me, we have to go build some computers and bolt some enormous screens to the wall.

Stay tuned!
