Seen At PAX 2011: Halo Fest
Gamers of all walks of life are slowly converging on PAX, the annual Penny Arcade Expo, one of the largest fan-centric gaming expos in the country. In the midst of all the video game hijinx, Microsoft and 343 Studios have set up Halo Fest, an elaborate tribute to Halo's 10 anniversary. Here fans can play Halo Anniversary, scope out all kinds of Halo memorabilia, and meet up with their Xbox Live gamer friends. Here are some of the sight and sounds of Halo Fest (real sounds not included)
