yep, seems like my only option is to bring my ipad and play some offline games :|... laptop too heavy for any gaming or even watching anime... not wanting to carry that around...

lets see if I will change my view by the time the con starts...

You can always crash around the gaming area and play video games like what I'm going to do. Since P4MU is going to be out I hope there is a tourny just so I can use Elizabeth or Yosuke and cosplay someone SMT while doing so.

Or bring a 3DS/PSP/Vita. I did that during breaks; playing Y-union while making udon noodles.
ACen 2013 Cosplay:
Hero from SMT: DS2, Emmet/Kudari from Pokemon Black and White, Roppi Izaya from Durarara, Hitoshura human form from SMT.

All the random avatars this time are from LJ and I don't own any of them. Some of the avatars are credit to aristocracy, Taku ♫ arthursandwich, noxjustxnoin, imperial-code, dojicons, narrante, dino-cookie, shiroyuki_kun, takerzmuse, and ushitora_icons at LJ. I DON'T OWN ANY OF THE ICONS.


Currently into and playing: All Megaten games, Blazblue series, and P4MU. Waiting for: Pokemon BW2 and BB3.

Really this is new to me because I heard that all the hotels had to pay when we had another thread like this about wifi.

EDIT: http://www.hotelchat...yatt_Chicago...

found it; it was in 2011 and it was for one day only ^^ Wifi at the Hyatt is 13-20 dollars for 24 hours from what I check on the site.


You linked the Hyatt Regency Chiacgo which is downtown (been there too).

From the Regency O'Hare website:

Complimentary airport shuttle to and from hotel
ATM/banking
Bar/lounge
Breakfast available (surcharge)
Business center
Concierge desk
Doorman
Dry cleaning service
Express check-in/check-out
Fitness center (24-hour)
Free newspapers (lobby)
Front desk (24-hour)
Gift shop
Complimentary wireless internet access in public areas
Limo or town car service available
Microwave in lobby
Two full-service restaurants on-site
Room service
Safe-deposit box (front desk)
In-room safe
Smoke-free property
Television in lobby
Wake-up calls
Self parking
Valet parking
Handicap access

So your room is likely out of the public zone..unless you can setup a repeater somewhere.

Whoops! Thanks for the heads up. I just did a google for the free wifi based on what you told me ^^; my mistake.
