Here's a recap of our awesome night at the Predator Gaming Lounge

This year, Instead of our usual afterparty at PAX East, we joined forces with Acer and Intel and brought you the ultimate PC gaming hangout at the Predator Gaming Lounge. 

The event was hosted at the ICA in Boston. Attendees were able to experience an enlightened state of gaming with uniquely powerful technology on Acer's new Predator gaming notebooks, desktops, and monitors. 

Acer showcased the latest Predator line of notebooks, desktops, and monitors with popular PC games and debuted their latest: Predator 17 X. 

Gamers had a chance to play in a 1v2 CS:GO competition against Acer’s Pro gamer, Tweeday, for special Predator prizes and the ultimate CS:GO bragging rights.

The night finished off with a cosplay contest hosted by Monika Lee and Danielle Beaulieu, including a grand prize for a Predator 15 gaming notebook.  

Thanks to everyone who came out to hangout with us. We hope you had an unforgettable experience. Until next time!
