(I can haz free XBLA points?Kthx.)
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnndddddd welcome to Elitechief27's blog. Destructoid's number one blog with a Space Trojan Helmet as its usurer’s avatar. I'm your host Elitechief27, and that is about enough of ripping off Retroforce Go!. So I am writing this blog for about the same reason as everyone else which is LAWLZ FREE SEXBOX POINTZ ON TEH INTERNETZ. Now that this thing it finally starting, I just have to say that I'm probably not more in need of these points than anyone else, but I want to throw myself into the mix and try to win these points. (Queue public service announcement) I mean there are starving kids in Africa crying out for XBLA points so they can play Arcade games while they starve and have their livers pecked out every day by eagles{kudos to whomever can get my reference}. So please, send starving kids XBLA points. The More You Know [shooting star] (end public service announcement). We now return to Elitechief27's blog, already in progress on Destructoid T.V
So I told her that’s not my muffler, that’s my Great Aunt Denise Huxtable. Ha ha ha......Oh your back. Now, where was I? Oh of course, free Arcade points. Now when I was little, my gaming muse had not leapt up and smelled the coffee yet. This means that I missed loads of really rad retro (alliterations FTW) games. Now that my sleeping gaming giant (whom I like to call Phil) has been awoken, I long for the classic games of yesteryear. With the advent of teh internetz and technology, we are now able to relive and discover both old and new games. I already have a few Arcade games, but, as you know if you are a regular Retroforce listener, there was a glut of good games released right in succession before t went right back to crap. Then with your help I will be able to download games like Triggerheart Excellica, Rez HD, Metal Slug 3, Omega Five, Super C, E4, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Arcade (which makes the above picture matter), and many others.
Where there is XBLA, there is downloadable content, and a plethora of new gameplay experiences. With the upcoming New Maps for both Call of Duty 4 and Halo 3 I am at a need for some points. Also, with all of the songs, released and upcoming, for Rock Band, it is a vital necessity for 360 owners to have points. I mean, we all love our game consoles, but it seems as though Microsoft is nickel and diming us to death so we need free points wherever we can find them. If that means that we have to do some things we are not proud of (this blog excluded because I enjoy writing blogs) then so be it.
Well that is my story, and I’m sticking to it. I know it wasn't the easiest thing to read because of the length and me sort of sounding like an advert at the end, but I hope you guys didn't just skim and had fun reading it. Please feel encouraged to comment on how great or fail it was. At least it is the length EDS asked for without pulling a Rev Anthony. All and all, thanks for reading. I am Elitechief27 of the Destructoid community, and I approve of this C-Blog.

As we all know, last night was the greatness that is Friday Night Fights. I am sure that most of you guys had an amazing time, but mine was a bit more complicated. I'm not saying that it was bad, but it was not my favorite FNF. I'll try to explain to you guys what was going on.
First, when i read the FNF post, I saw that there was no Gears(although we did get a few games going eventually, more on that later) so i decided to try my hand at Halo 3 and CoD4 FNF. When the time came to risen up my 360 and go online, My brother decided that he wanted to play something else so I decided to mench it up and let him play.
After about twenty minutes of wating, I finally got my 360 back. I then decided to hop on CoD4 and check up on the guys. We then played some regular deathmatch, domination, headquarters, and sabotoge. the highlight if CoD4 (and possibly the whole night) was the game we played on Vacant. It was a mix of Old School and Hardcore, and the best part of it was that it was Headshots onlt and that the physics of Old School and Hardcore mixed toghether making people go flying when they were grenaded.Being on the Grenade spam map, there were plenty of soaring corpses. Also, there were many Family Guy, ROFL Copter, and I'MA CHARGIN MA LAZER/ SHOOP DA WOOP jokes which were funny and enjoyed by all.
Later on in the night, my connection to the host was lost, and that is when I went over to Halo 3. I was only there for a short time so I can't realy say much about it ( but for all the regulars and hopefuls, I'm sure it's JAWSOME). We played a few flag based game types and had a good time all around.
Finally, Snalib messaged me at around midnight saying that Gears was on, so I left the Infection game I was in for straight-up Warzone. After about seven minutes of waiting, we got a group of mostly random people toghether. Later on in the night, we recived some more familiar faces and had a few good games going. At around 2AM, I turned off the console, looked a bit aroud Destructoid, and went to bed.
Overall, A good night but not the best. I'm not blaming anyone for it, so if you feel offended or bad, don't. All of you were good Hosts and did a fantastic job. I hope to see you all again next friday.
