Last weekend, Xbox MVPs were out in full force at the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) in Seattle. This three-day game festival for tabletop, videogame, and PC gamers offered a host of dedicated tournaments and freeplay areas. Gamers could also take in panel discussions, a weekend-long HaloFest event, and an exhibitor hall filled with booths displaying the latest from top game publishers and developers. Many Xbox MVPs attend this event because of the amazing content and opportunity to network with other people who know their stuff when it comes to games.

So, what does a day of an Xbox MVP at PAX look like? To find out, we pulled together some of the blog and twitter posts from MVPs at the event—now you can experience the excitement for yourself!

I think I'm more excited for the new Counter-Strike game than I realized. The booth is just

packed and the game looks great.

Made it down to PAX. Checking out Halo Fest right now.

NickPuleo

Renegade Ops is going to be a ton of fun in co-op. Love the destruction.

Waiting in line for Dance Central 2. Looks like they have more songs that the last time I played it!

NickPuleo

Dance Central 2 has slap bracelets for swag. So awesome.

litheon

They're giving these slap bracelets away at the Dance Central 2 booth.

litheon

Forza 4 is looking and playing great. If you're at PAX you should check it out. The line is virtually

non-existent.

DjDATZ

At the @XboxSupport panel, but I'm worried about my Xbox 360 being broken! Ha! #trolling

litheon

Just rocked some GoW3 Horde mode. It plays great, really stoked on it to come out next month.

DjDATZ

And a minute after that tweet, @XboxSupport mentions trolls. Uh, #winning.

NickPuleo

Getting some serious playtime with BF3. Can't wait for this.

NickPuleo

At the Sarcastic Gamer extra life party. Then?

NickPuleo

Back at the room. Decompressing.

Nice breakfast view.

NickPuleo

Just got a ton of great footage of con goers answering questions about co-op games.

I've done that in 4 years of coming to PAX.

DjDATZ

Damn, Borderlands 2 looks like it's gonna be an awesome game!

DjDATZ

Made it to @PoDog. Now to see what all the fuss is about...

fellow PAX attendees!
