Xbox Booth

The Xbox Booth [#412] is the place to play this holiday's hottest blockbusters! We'll be featuring hands-on Xbox One exclusives like Sunset Overdrive, remastered Halo 2 Anniversary and Forza Horizon 2, the highly anticipated Electronic Arts title Dragon Age: Inquisition and digital favorites like Ori and the Blind Forest, Killer Instinct, Project Spark, and Project Totem, plus various ID@Xbox titles.

New Halo 2 Anniversary Map & Tournament

It's the Stateside hands-on debut of Halo: The Master Chief Collection at PAX Prime! Come to the Xbox One booth to get hands-on with an all-new Halo 2: Anniversary multiplayer map.

Feeling competitive? Then assemble your Spartan fireteam and come qualify in the "Halo PAX Prime Showdown" for a chance at the $10,000 prize pool. Come to the ASTRO Gaming (Booth #842) and Skullcandy Gaming (Booth #3117) areas on Friday, 8/29 to get hands-on with Halo 2: Anniversary multiplayer and qualify for the Halo PAX Prime Showdown. At the end of the day, we'll be taking the top performers from each booth, and giving them a spot in the 8-team weekend finals on Saturday and Sunday.

ID@Xbox Games

Check out some fantastic new games from great independent developers. Other Ocean will have "#IDARB," a crowd-sourced, couch-competitive multiplayer eSport game for up to 8 players at the same time! Asteroid Base will have "Lovers in a Dangerous Space Time," a frantic co-op platformer-inside-a-shooter, in which players work together piloting a neon-drenched battleship to save space animals, explore the galaxy, and fight evil robots. Chainsawesome Games will have "Knight Squad," which can loosely be described as SNES era Bomberman meets Gauntlet - play as a Knight and defeat your opponents using epic weapons and power ups. SpeedRunners, from DoubleDutch and tinyBuild is a cut-throat multiplayer running game that pits four players against each other - run, jump, swing and use devious pick-ups to knock your opponents off-screen.

If you're in town early for PAX Prime, you can come and play over 25 upcoming ID@Xbox titles at our ID@Xbox Pre-PAX Open House on Thursday, August 28th from 6-8:30pm at the Microsoft Campus. The event is free, and we're even offering shuttles from the Convention center to Campus! Check out all the details here.

not sure how I feel about that color on the console... makes it look i dunno  bad somehow
the controller looks good, but that tone or quantity of red on the console itself looks bad to me

[Xevross]

Basically: "come and play what you've already seen loads about at Gamescom and E3!!" 

Its good that they're at least doing something. That console looks cool too! Nice line up of indies and it seems there'll be a few new ones. Overall seems like a good line up

[Legend]

Cool looking system though.
