About Me
Friday Night Fights started around the first couple of months Destructoid was birthed. It was lead by a small team of old and recent editors of Destructoid, and had a small following that played everything from XBOX 360 to Nintendo DS. As time passed Destructoid was becoming very big in terms of recognition and credibility. Somehow through the birth pains of Destructoid, Friday Night Fights was lost, but not completely forgotten.

Through a rag tag team of Destructoid's community members (Bfeld13, Snaileb, Tazar tha yoot, Bhive01, and D) Friday Night Fights was once again relived using the community blogs, and people were intrested in playing actual games again. The following was an uphill struggle for the community driven Friday Night Fights, with only a small group of willing gamers. Eventually Nintendo DS and PSP groups had to be axed in favor of the new console releases, and we even thought it should just end entirely.

Here we are 35 weeks later, and the only reason Friday Night Fights is still around has been you. With all the seperate Friday Night Fight blogs (Euro FNF, PS3 FNF, Halo FNF, Nintendo DS ThurDSays, Chicken Fried Saturdays, and of course Wednesday Night Warcawks) and so many different ways to find your fellow gamers, there's just no excuse. If you're here to game, we got you covered.

The whole point of Friday Night Fights isn't for a community based competition, or even choosing teams and sides. Friday Night Fights has always been dedicated torwards Destructoiders putting aside a specific gaming day to find each other and frag that special someone. To interact with the community we all know so well, and maybe get a headshot between our ramblings.

Friday Night Fights 36 : COD4 Tournament NEXT WEEK
DestructoidFNF | 3:41 PM on 03.28.2008 31 comments



*Please note that the following image has nothing to do with this weeks FNF theme, but I thought it was hilarious. Thanks itemforty, for bringing the lulz.


So you decided to join Friday Night Fights.. lucky you! Only question is, how lucky do you think you really are? Luck can do alot with gaming, sometimes skill, but neither can save you from next week. Next week is the official unofficial Destructoid Call of Duty 4 tournament, and we're already half way full! So if you haven't signed up, you better get to stepping.

Yes, luck is in the air today folks, so what better time to press your luck against the Euro Crowd for FNF? I heard there's terrorists involved.. too early? Well then use your skills to the best of your ability against the Playstation 3 crew. You'll need it! Don't have a 400 dollar Blu-ray player? Since everyone has the Haloes, then maybe you can meet up with vexed alex and company, which I've heard nothing but good times! The PC crowd is a little late, but you better believe neither luck nor skill will help when it comes to TF2 on the PC. Just shame..

So.. community wise, what's been going on? Nothing to big in general, of course the Tournament is coming, so jump on that. DVD Design is hosting Prey tonight, so you can get some more achievements and win big. Of course the Cancun trip is on the day of the tournament, but that's ok because we still have you covered. You'll just have to wait for an updated post Monday...

Other than that, just have fun Destructoid! Game on!


DVD Design - Metalocalypse (Hosting Prey)
Snaileb - Snaileb (I'm joining a Brawl match sometime, but at 10PM EST it's Gears)
-D- - SuckerPod (Hosting Burnout Paradise)
Butmac - Butmac (Hosting Burnout Paradise)
Wardrox - Wardrox (Hosting Halo 3)
power-glove - POWER GLOVE (Hosting COD4)


Burnout Paradise: Butmac did a spectacular job hosting and playing with new and old Destructoiders, or -D- will start your engines!

Condenmed 2 : Hobo Wars: I heard the Multiplayer was bad. Why is it even up here?

Gears of War: Gears will be hosted at 10PM, EST. Just send Snaileb a message!

Call of Duty 4: P0WER-GLOVE has been an excellent host these past couple of
months, and his continuing contribution is above me. For epic times, find this group of dtoiders.

Rock Band or Guitar Hero III: Does in fact need more Cowbell. I just downloaded
the Classic Rock track too! Bad assery.

Team Fortress 2: If you prefer the gimped 360 version over the PC, we got you covered.

Halo 3: Teabagging Edition. If you haven't played with Vexed Alex, you're missing out! HEADSHOT!

Bomberman Live: If anyone wants to get a game going, DO IT. Just let us know! :p



The PSTriple crowd have got their plans laid out, and this section is pertaining to what
games they usually play.

Unreal Tournament 3: Yojimbo is now head chancelor of your PS3 activities, and
you can usually find him hosting this.

COD4: Once done with UT3, it's time for some running & gunning.

Burnout Paradise: Not in the mood to shoot people in the face? Then why not use a
car?

Warhawk: Whether on foot, in a jeep, in a tank or in a Warhawk death is but a
moment away.



Smash Brothers Brawl: Taken quite a while hasn't it? Yes, we've had ALOT of fun messing around with this game. With so many options to take advantage of, you have no excuse!

IRC Channel

I suppose the easiest way to join IRC is through java based chatroom, it's old but easy. Make sure you have a bluetooth headset. Just type in :

/join #dtoid-brawl

Ventrillo

IP/Hostname: VOICE-VA2.BRANZONE.COM

Port: 3790

Password: None

There is no password to actually access the server, but the Social lounge does require a password, which is "ftw" without quotes of course. Make sure you have a bluetooth headset. If you need a "how to" guide, these lovely Destructicans have your answer. Go
here if you have questions.

Don't have Ventrilo?

Get it at http://ventrilo.com/download.php

Use your 360

I've done this twice and it works every time. Just turn on your 360, join a free XBLA game
(Aegis Wings, Yaris) and voila! Simple, right? Just dont forget that your controller may die.



Team Fortress 2: Custom Maps
TF2 server information

Server: Destructoid.com - TF2
IP: 8.12.20.112:27015
Pass: destructoid

We thank you for your continued support of FNF and hope to see you there tonight.




Join us for a game of AMMO at 11PM ET. The game is a free download at http://agentmoo.com/AMMO, and the game will be running on the server Megamoo. Thanks to all those who voted for the new character in my game; this MOOnday Jim Sterling will be playable in my game.

*Thanks again to Harassment Panda for so much help with the list!

I'll be on for teh Haloz, Burnout Paradise, and Gears! Also, if anybody wants to play any random XBLA games, I have a lot of them.

I'm also looking forward to the CoD4 tournament, as I should have my copy from GameFly in the next day or so. I'm not looking forward to buying the new maps, though, because I was planning on buying the GOTY edition when I do finally buy another copy. :/

BTW, I'm still tsunamikitsune on the chart instead of kaizkoukitsune. I swear one day I'll find some way to change my gamertag to tsunamikitsune so everything will be a bit less confusing. :P

Sorry Bfeld. We definitely got you now. I should probably put myself on that list as well...

Hope someone is using it!

That chart rules indeed but 'Takeshi' is not 'Takeshi' on PSN it's 'JohanHin'.

What Ron said. Also, the header image does apply — the CoD 4 tourney is “racist” against PS3 owners.

DVD Design, check the links bro. It's a hidden gem, just like you.

Samit I would've been glad to include the Playstation version, I even asked about it. When the maps hit later in April for PS3, I don't see why not.

Also, there won't be a front page post, so I'm really glad everyone made seperate posts to find each other.

If Snaileb doesn't object, everyone PM contact list additions to me. It'll be easier for me to just add them in the document and update it for next week so that you'll all have a fresh, new chart to look at.
