Since the CSULB Games Center re-opened at the beginning of April, business has not been the same.
"At night its really dead, even for the big games," said Kristine Ojala, 22, an employee at the Games Center. "The old crowd either doesn't know we're open or has worked us out of their schedule."
After flooding in January, the Games Center bowling lanes had to be completely renovated. They are now brand new and have been updated with automatic scoring. Ojala, who worked at the Games Center before and after the renovations, said these renovations have made the bowling more popular.
What used to be the USU Arcade is now the Sticks Lounge, which holds Nintendo Wii, Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC gaming stations instead of the old arcade style games. According to Ojala, some students are unhappy with this change.
Ojala is most surprised by how several students don't even know that the Games Center has re-opened.
"People come in here all the time saying, 'Oh my gosh, you guys are open? When did this happen?'" said Ojala, "Its weird because it's been like a month."
