EventsWith 16 Xbox 360s, 4 PCs, and 4 PS3s, the Virtual Arena is the perfect place for LAN-parties, Tournaments, Lock-Ins, and Birthday Parties! If you've been to a Lock-In or a Tournament in the past, you haven't seen anything yet! BE PREPARED! REGULAR HOURS are 12 noon to 12 midnight EVERY DAY. Admission is $3 an hour. Or buy an Arena Buddy Pass and play for 2 hours with a friend for only $10! LOCK-INS! Every Friday night we feature Lock-Ins: Play from 11 pm to 7 am AND get free pizza for only $20! We are currently accepting only 24 reservations for each Lock-In, so call ahead and sign up! Lock-Ins are for gamers 12 years old and up, gamers under 17 years old will need a parent or guardian to sign a permission slip. HALO TOURNAMENTS! The Virtual Arena hosts Halo Tournaments EVERY "Tournament Tuesday" starting at 6pm. Admission is $10 for 5 hours. If you are eliminated or the Tournament doesn't last 5 hours (and they rarely do) any remaining time will be credited to your Gamer account to be used some other time. Prizes will range from free gaming time to free t-shirts or even free games based on attendance. Head over to the Tournaments page for more information! BIRTHDAY PARTIES! Because of an increase in regular attendance and popularity, Birthday Parties will only be available from 10 am to 12 noon, before we open for regular business. Package prices are also being dropped for one convenient pricing formula: 2 hours of private gaming and free pizza for only $10 per person. Because we will open 2 hours earlier for an exclusive party, reservations have to be made in advance and include a $50 reservation fee. Birthday parties will only be available to groups of at least 8 people but no more than 30 people. Children under 12 years old must be accompanied by a parent or a responsible adult, and all adults and children will be counted. LAUNCH PARTIES and SHOWCASES! We occasionally get to run special promotions when new games are released. These promotions can include things like playing a new game for one hour for free or competing in online tournaments for cash and other prizes! Our current showcase is for the new TRANSFORMERS: WAR FOR CYBERTRON! This showcase starts Friday, June 25th and ends Sunday, July 25th. That's right, this showcase runs for an entire month!
TRANSFORMERS lets players choose to play as iconic characters like Optimus Prime, Megatron, Ironhide, Starscream, and many others in THE War For Cybertron! Play through the campaign with up to three players in co-op or play in many 5 vs 5 modes online with your own custom characters. There has never been a better Transformers game than this, and the Virtual Arena is ready for 5 vs 5 matches HERE with TEN copies!
BLACKLIGHT: TANGO DOWN features near-future FPS warfare in intense 16 player battles or up to four player "Black Ops" co-op missions. Use your HRV (Hyper Reality Visor) to see enemies through walls, and customize your weapons and armor loud-outs with a near infinite variety of 'tags' and mods. The B:TD showcase runs from July 17th to August 18th. Every one of the Arena's EIGHTEEN Xboxes is loaded with Blacklight: Tango Down! Don't forget some of our past showcases:
BORDERLANDS! Imagine a game like Fallout 3, with a post-apocolyptic landscape covered with dangerous mutants, monsters, and other enemies. Now add vehicles, RPG elements like classes, leveling, skills, and loot drops, and a random weapon generator. Then add the ability to play it with another person via split-screen, or up to 4 people via system-link or online!
PREPARE TO DROP Halo 3: ODST is here! Continue the fight against the Covenant as one of the crazy "Hell Jumpers" - the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers - in a side story that takes place between the events of Halo 2 and Halo 3. The Covenant have found Earth, and they've started digging a BIG hole in New Mombasa. What are the Covenant looking for? What happened to the rest of your squad? This new campaign stars a new hero, can be played with up to four players in co-op mode, and also features the new 4 player co-op mode Firefight! How many waves of Covenant forces can you survive? If you like strategy games, and you like HALO, play the game that everyone is playing from a previous showcase: HALO WARS! Set 20 years before the first Halo game, Halo Wars lets players take control of powerful human armies (and Covenant armies in versus modes) against overwhelming odds as the malevolent Covenant invaders attack Earth's outer colonies. But don't be afraid, you'll have Warthogs, Scorpion tanks, Locust aircraft...and Spartan super-soldiers on your side! Critics have already praised Halo Wars as THE best RTS made for consoles, and in mere minutes of learning the easy controls, you'll see why. Even players unfamiliar with the RTS (Real Time Strategy) genre will be commanding their infrantry, land, and air vehicles into battle with ease. Play the thrilling campaign alone - or CO-OP with a friend! - to get ready for 1v1, 2v2, and 3v3 matches either via LAN or on Xbox Live! |
