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!

Dangerdoll
Sooooooo many games , so little time :-/ #PAX
Free Halo Mega Blocks sets at Halo Fest. #pax
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.
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!
Dance Central 2 has slap bracelets for swag. So awesome.
They're giving these slap bracelets away at the Dance Central 2 booth.
Forza 4 is looking and playing great. If you're at PAX you should check it out. The line is virtually
non-existent.
At the @XboxSupport panel, but I'm worried about my Xbox 360 being broken! Ha! #trolling
Just rocked some GoW3 Horde mode. It plays great, really stoked on it to come out next month.
And a minute after that tweet, @XboxSupport mentions trolls. Uh, #winning.
Getting some serious playtime with BF3. Can't wait for this.
At the Sarcastic Gamer extra life party. Then?
Back at the room. Decompressing.
Day 2
Nice breakfast view.
Just got a ton of great footage of con goers answering questions about co-op games.
Just played Warp, definitely a game to look out for on XBLA!
About to school @johnnystorm73 on some Dance Central 2!! #PAX
At a Creole restaurant with the #cogpax folks.
Wow!! Day 2 PAX is done. What a day! :-D
Called it an early night due to a long day, but pretty stoked on a final day of PAX
epicness tomorrow.
Day 3
I l<3ve to dance! Thanks to ALL of my gamer family 4 cutting a rug with me. It's
always a pleasure to see you :-D #PAX
Day 3, LET'S GO!!!! :-D #PAX
Made it to PAX before the expo hall opened. I'm pretty sure this is the first time
I've done that in 4 years of coming to PAX.
Damn, Borderlands 2 looks like it's gonna be an awesome game!
Made it to @PoDog. Now to see what all the fuss is about...
Super awesome flight! Played Munchkin, talked Gears, Halo, and CoD with some
fellow PAX attendees!
Up and leaving our hotel. Sadface that PAX Prime is already over. :(
Already missing everyone from PAX. :( Wish we could just do a week long gamesfest
where everyone could just enjoy eachother's company.<3
W00tz! PAX11 was such a blast. Thanks to all involved in making it so. Huggles to all
my gamer fam & friends. #youfolksrock #Nowboarding
