You will have a lot of free time in college, and you will find out soon enough that gaming may be the best way to pass some of that time. Getting wasted is always a blast, but it gets really expensive. Trust me, I spent about $500 on drinking in September alone, and that smartened me up after I saw that credit card bill. We had Counter-Strike tournaments in Rez about twice a month and there were servers running almost every night. As for in class, I always sat by a wall outlet and brought my D-Link wireless router with me. About 4 or 5 played Jedi Academy through a 3 hour lecture every week
