Ready, Set, Game at the Arcadium 3

Who here doesn't love playing games with his iPhone or iPad or iPod Touch? I'm pretty sure that you spend most of your spare time using the popular apps installed in your device. But what if I tell you that you can play your favorite game, and win prizes for it? Wouldn't it be much cooler? That's why I'm so excited to announce about Power Mac Center's Arcadium, the country's first of its kind App Arcade Tournament happening this November 16 - December 1 at their selected stores. 

Launched in 2011, Power Mac Center wanted to bring mobile gaming experience in a different level. Just by going to their selected stores, you can play their featured game apps with iOS devices. And in its third year, they are inviting you to join the different challenges, while beating other game enthusiasts. 

This year, the games which you can participate in are Ducati Challenge, Shadowgun: Deadzone, Scrabble, Despicable Me: Minion Rush, and Elite Command AR. Tried most of them during the launch, and it was fun. Of course I joined the Minion Rush game because I've been so fond of them lately.
