Are we done talking in the third person now? Thank goodness. BONER. FUCK. ASS. COCK. OTHER SWEARS.

Anyway, I'm (R)Andy. My favorite game is Half-Life 2, my favorite beverage is Mountain Dew, and I sometimes wear a pink robe:



I also have two really fucking awesome kids:


Alice


Henry

And a sexy hot wife:


Mrs Andy Dixon

Here are some more pink robe pics (because I am a narcissist):


attempting to cosplay as The Dude, circa 2009 (AKA "the original")


with Kraid, circa PAX Prime 2011

And here are some things that fellow Dtoiders have drawn for me:




also from ZombiePlatypus






from COM 01




also from BeatBeat

Today, I officially take over the front page FNF posts from Tactix. I'm sure I speak for all of us when I tell him that I'm grateful for all his hard work over the past few months!

What this means for you is that, while I'm happy to continue maintaining the 360 FNF cblogs and forum threads, I'm also more than happy to hand the task off to someone else, or even a group of rotating FNF regulars. PM me if this is something you're interested in helping out with!

In addition to this, I'm looking for some people with some Photoshopping abilities for the following tasks:

-Create a new 360 FNF header for this blog
-Scour the internet for new game headers for this blog (here's the template of images I normally use)
-Create some new sub-section headers for the front page FNF post

If any of that sounds like something you might be interested in, PM me and let me know!

Now... on to business!

New to Friday Night Fights? It's easy to get involved!

Shit, god dammit. Fixing now.
Man, juggling three posts at once is a pain in the ass!
My gold subscription lapsed and I likely won't bother renewing it until after I get back from PAX :(
Ahhh, parents will be here tonight, so unlikely I'll be playing. And I'll miss next week, too! Noooooooo
I have none of those skills and no free time. I'm a horrible friend...
As a note, I'll be playing MNC for just an hour or two. or even less. It's not in my nature to play a game in long sittings. Also, Thundercats on Cartoon Network.
@Corduroy Turtle

:'(

Wanna at least hit up some Bad Company 2 tonight? I'll let you watch me snipe.

@StriderHoang

Just pass off the hosting to someone else when you leave!

@knutaf

(That first one was at Elsa.)
I'm up for suggestions with the fighting games/beat-'em-ups, otherwise I'll just get into some Super Street Fighter IV AE.

Yeah, I'll definitely contribute some banners and junk. Gimme some ideas, people! Throw some words at me and I'll see what comes out the other end.

That last sentence sounded more gross than I intended.
I think I might be down for some BFBC2 tonight (depending on social obligations).
11pm does seem pretty late to start though (to me at least).
Could I start hosting earlier and then merge when you sign in? (granted me plaing is still up in the air)
I'll send you a message on twitter later to see if I'll be able to do it

@seltzermx

If I see that you're already online when I finally get on, I'll just join with your party and we can merge the games. I'd host earlier, but my daughter doesn't go to sleep until about 8:30 Pacific, so 9 is the earliest I can commit to!
I'm also going to be dragging some non-Destructoid people into the Speed Halo match. Everybody who's planning to play, I beseech you: Play a round or two of some game, and then when you join me for Speed Halo, invite them to the game.

I played the game with eight people the other night. This game becomes exponentially more fun with each person added.

A sixteen-person game would be boners.
I might not be on at all tonight. Between going to a friends' birthday party and having to be at work by nine tomorrow morning, it doesn't look good. Hope everyone has fun though.

EUFNF best FNF
I'll be down for some BC2 later on tonight fo shizzle. Also, I hope I didn't kill your inbox earlier...and for those of you not in the know, yes, that could mean more than one thing...

But it doesn't.
@Aurain

GAMES

@ChillyBilly

Oh yes it does.
WAT R GAEMS?


We're the best because our thread is always the shit.

BETTER PEOPLE™
I've been wanting to give Speed Halo a try.... But I'm a complete Reach noob, I seriously know NOTHING about it. :/
@Namodacranks

From what I've seen Speed Halo has NOTHING to do with regular Halo :)
@Andy: But I wouldn't even know how to download that thingy or whatever it is, n stuff.
@Namodacranks

Haha, you weren't kidding!

Halo makes things like that super easy, though. All you have to do is join the Xbox Live part of the person hosting and boot up the game. Once it sees that they're playing a mode you don't have, it will download it for you!
*Xbox Live PARTY
Yep, and Speed Halo is easy!

It's basically Whack-A-Mole meets NASCAR. Some players race a car down the track, others use giant hammers to smash the drivers. When the drivers get hit, they respawn with a hammer and must help kill the remaining drivers.

It's a lot of fun.
I also have none of these skills...pooey :[

Also I'm upset I won't be able to FNF for a few more weeks while I move to Boston D:
