Why Is This LAN Party in Las Vegas Important?
Anyone can play competitive games online but there will always be input delay with the connection. On LAN, there’s nearly no connection delay which feels completely different from an online setting.
Fighting games commonly host LAN events at a local or global level. Due to the one versus one nature, it’s easier to host these events. EVO, the Ultimate Fighting Game Tournament, happens every year drawing thousands of eyes to the event.

If a retro first-person shooter can host such a party, what’s stopping other games from doing the same? LAN events are always a joy to attend, even at a local level. Making new friends and the joy of competition is why many players continue to attend.
