Cool Set Up & Cool Experience. . My 1 complaint and let down...Not the arena.. . DisclaimerIt is as advertised** "Streaming from the entry window" Literally....👆🙉👆 . ✅️The Viewsonic Streamer Room. Your whole setup was smooth as advertised and cannot ask for more. Top notch..Though, some might expect a recording room to have 4 walls and some sound absorbing material. You know, for recording and sound purposes. It was just so loud! Useable footage? Humm🤔 . Simply go into this experience expecting to compete with the sounds of the gaming floor and slot machines just behind your chair!🎰📣 . The microphone was so amazing that it picked up the casino just outside the 3 wall "room" sitting right across the casino floor. Think megaphone projection! I get the whole "on display" thing but having 2 walls made out of sound resonating glass and one open wall made for a very loud experience. Just was not expecting that at all from an high end gaming facility. Like at E3, the rooms have 1 glass wall and all other surfaces are made for streaming. Just be aware of and expect this. . The arena was super cool to see in person. I was not let down and I hope I can catch it in action! Next time for sure. . No COD events? Ok. . Your staff was amazing and definatly no complaints there. . The bar area looked very inviting and again, wish I was able to catch it in action as we were there from 1-3pm and it was closed, so be aware... If ya want a 🍸,🤔😉 plan accordingly! But, I get it, expensive setups and fluids do not mix well. Limited hours on booze👍 It is what it is. . We went with a Streamer and we expecting to enjoy the bar while they did there thing for 3 hours. The bar I belive opens at 5PM but, there is a bar just outside the Streaming room window, so we watched from there😂. . The place was so damn cool I'd like to check it out next time when its in full effect! . Overall, I guess I just expected more from a Vegas Arena. . The Experience Was Cool minus the super loud, hear every "keyboard click and slot machine chiming" sounds. . It was exciting to check out. . In the end, it's Vegas Babe! You roll with the dice and expect a wild and loud time, right! We will be back, most likley not to stream unless something changes in...

Arena ambiance: There's PC's setup in the main lobby before heading back to the Esports Arena. The arena is a gamer's dream in terms of hardware and esports competitive ambiance. Tennis player's, imagine being able to walk into Wimbledon to play with your friends. Golfers, imagine walking into Augusta National and playing a round with you friends. This is what the Esports Arena is. Consoles, PC's, and monitors all appear to be mobile to give the staff maximum flexibility for competitions. The main stage showcasing the massive movie sized screen is impressive and definitely adds to gaming to competitive ambiance. The crew operating the Rainbow 6 Siege tournament kept it organized and running pretty close to the time schedule. There's multiple viewing levels with a bar on each floor.
Arena Bar: Alright for you spectators here we go. You have a full bar complete with typical bar finger food. Chicken fingers, chicken wings, cheeseburgers, sliders, hot dogs, pretzel bites, etc. It was mainly gamer friendly food to fuel them during long sessions. I went with the nachos and some fries for the crew and they were a-ok. The servers were all friendly and the kitchen took awhile to get you your food but about what I'd expect at an Esports arena all good.
This Esports arena kind of makes me want to take my fortnite gameplay participation up a couple of levels just to make a decent showing here. If anything, I'll bring my squad down and grab drinks with their folks as we watch them play. Either way, this Esports Arena is a great gamer spectacle and I'm sure I'll be...
Read moreMy job is to find out what's new in entertainment. And I found this place a little lackluster. When I came into the place I had hopes of being entertained and I was a little bit. But just a little bit. More than half the staff were just standing around and not being professional. When I paid to play the games. They expected me to have my own Xbox and PlayStation accounts and I did not. So the game selection that I had was very limited two 5 games and that was not very fun. This place maybe very fun if you're a gamer who has those things, but if you're a casual just like me. You will find it very irritating. So if you don't own any of the consoles this definitely isn't the place for you. On top of that there retro games are very limited and also none at all. What I mean by that is they're arcade machine is a "main arcade," that means they use Raspberry Pie or computer to emulate older games. And a lot of emulations are very glitchy and not like the real game. Plus on top of that there was only 3 Retro arcade games. And those games did not have their sound on. Have you ever played a game that had no sound? It's terrible. You can tell they put in a lot of work into the Aesthetics, but they sure did not put a lot of work into the entertainment. The only thing I like about the place was the VR. Which is virtual reality. A sad thing is it was not set up all the way right and then they had a very limited choice of games. And you can only play for 15 minutes. $15 for 15 minutes for that. Don't be fooled by their website they actually don't have a huge selection. They may grow into it, but it's going...
