be Welcome to Gaming Belgium

Welcome to Gaming BelgiumAll arcades are closing one after the other, new operators are nowhere to be seen, players stay home. The existence of on-line play networks such as Xbox Live and PlayStation Network does not help. The arcade community doesn't include players anymore, only collectors. After 7 years of fight with operators who turn a deaf ear and players that nothing interests aside "possessing a machine", we have exhausted our resources. To ensure the sustainability of this website, we're embracing the Gaming with latest video slots and casino equipment news. But that's not all, you will earn money on our website! Gaming Belgium will soon become a not-to-be-missed iGaming portal through our association with the Wellingtonrenbaan (Oostende) and the Hippodrome de Wallonie (Mons) which allows you to place your bets on-line and watch the races live! For poker enthusiasts, a national tournament of Texas Hold'em poker will be held this year, qualifying turns starting this summer. Arcade games are not to be forgotten since you will be able to play the greatest arcade classics in Flash format with titles like Pac-Man, Asteroids, Space Invaders and Joust. And this is just the beginning, the future looks bright for Gaming Belgium, and YOU are the winner! This is an April fool!
