Live at QuakeCon 2009_ Doom II, Quake Arena for XBLA
By Dr. Eleanor Vance | Published on January 01, 0001
Among the towers, the PC accessories, the Galaga spaceships was a [[link]] bit of early news perhaps including a glimpse at Doom II and Quake Live for the Xbox 360‘s Live Arcade. [UPDATE: I should have just called this
Quake Arena Arcade. Sorry about the “Quake Live” confusion.](new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b';

The keynote is just a few [[link]] hours away, we’ll be blogging it live, but until then Totilo has walked through QuakeCon and witnessed constructions he never imagined. Behold the things gamers will build.
Doom II with an Xbox 360 controller. It’s the fake Alamo at the Gaylord Texan, home of QuakeCon 2009. Lounging in the
exhibition hall. Your deputy editor wearing Gameskulls’ $90 helmet-headphones. Better noise-canceling, they tell me!
Computers glow at QuakeCon. Or have liquid sloshing through them. Or are built to look like Galaga spaceships, as you’ll see…. The Ventrilo racing pick-up. The QuakeCon rules. More QuakeCon rules. Here’s the Super [[link]] Mario PC Nintendo never made. Also spotted someone rolling in a tower painted with Link, The Lego Quake PC. Unofficial. Lord of the Rings, maybe? This one befuddled me, some sort of Nvidia special PC that had a Star Trek sign next to it. Your Galaga PC of the day. The Galaga guts. And, of course, the Craftsman tool-chest PC. The suitcase PC? Or was this a bomb I was supposed to defuse? Too late? These people are having fun in the BYOC (bring your own computer) main hall. And some Intel cards to wrap us up.

The bonuses are nice and offer great value, although they could be a bit more frequent. I love being part of the VIP program, which gives me extra rewards and makes me feel appreciated as a loyal player.
Some games are a bit laggy on my phone at times, but the variety of games and the smooth desktop experience make up for it. Overall, the website offers a great gaming experience for both casual and serious players.
I wish there were more free spins available, but even with the current promotions, I have a lot of fun. The themed slot games are creative and engaging, keeping the gameplay fresh and entertaining every day.
