This event is Microsoft sponsored. If you haven’t had a chance to play yet, this is a great chance to. Even if you have played, you can still come on down to play co-op with others, or even for some versus play. Two copies of Gears of War 2 will be given away during this event, and there will be free pizza!

Our Smash Bros. tournament planning will also take place at around 7:30 in the SLC Great Hall on the same day.

Also, here’s another reminder that we’ll be at Warrior Weekends today from 4pm until 11pm in the SLC Great Hall.
