We are very sorry for the inconvenience to all of you but the Xbus has had a catastrophic failure of our power generator. This means that we will no longer be doing events until it can be repaired or replaced. As the most expensive part on the Xbus that could mean more time than normal. I have to have the generator evaluated to see if it is a small or a large repair. Please keep checking back and we will update when we are back in business.

We’re going to PAX and I got room for 16 guests for the most amazing gaming road trip you could ever have. Here’s the quick details:

$100 for roundtrip bus travel on the Xbus from Portland to Seattle.
Gaming on the bus DURING the trip. You will have your own station to game on…no sharing necessary.
We will be playing LAN games all the way there, AND all the way back. Feel free to join in to win prizes, or just do your own thing.

We will flesh out the rest of the details soon…but if you are interested contact us ASAP as there are only 16 spots.
