PS3 FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHTS: RECAP!!
Y0j1mb0 | 10:00 PM on 03.22.2008 39 comments




Another Friday passes and so another Saturday Night for a Friday Night Fight Recap. Attendance was great *gasp* again! I hopped on to Sadistic Hosting the UT3, just as he was lathering them with shrapnel in their pretty little faces. New faces were there, familiar as well. Not bad Whiteboy..you held your own. On the mediocrity scale of one to ten, you were a four..good job, buddy! The recent patch Epic put out has really smoothed out the online play as it was just blazing with not a hair of lag. Fantastic stuff.


Do those markings look familiar to you Star Wars fan on the Link Gun?

After playing through a few rounds with the Psycho killers of UT3 I jumped on early with Call of Duty 4. Another good attendance as well. Ponyboy, Takeshi, Liam, Gameboi, and a few others my old ass can't remember. I will say that our first 6 matches as the TOID team we were kicking ass and taking names, then at about the 7th match before the next match started, these guys on the other teams were speaking Iranian or something and I knew the jig was up. And sure enough when the match started, COD4 turned into Viva Pinata and we were the Pinatas!! The skies were raining grenades like raindrops in a storm and everywhere we turned we were getting shot down like dogs with rabies. Quite humiliating. But we still had fun.

The servers or something after that match were acting up as we couldn't get together again as group because we couldn't get HOOKED up again. Bizarre. Poor Dark Travesty never did join our fray as well as Gameboi afterwards. We kept sending each other invites like crazy to no avail. A weird oddity as today that problem didn't exist.


CLICK..your Dead.

Finally Warhawk ended the night with it's usual death defying thrills..Evil Cheese sightings!!.. and alot of new people..along with the usual Sadistic, Shipero, Takeshi, and the KISS Clan??..them boys were killers..lol. As usual Shipero was cutting more than a Ginsu Knife, Sadistic was blowing people away like a punk in a tank..and I was dropping these lovely mines everywhere people wouldn't expect them to be.lol. Good times, Good times.


[Insert a witty comment here]

On a side note: We miss ya Samit. Hurry up and bring your singing bird self back..so we can bust a cap in you. Well that was it folks, good times by all. I had a blast like usual and can't wait to do it again next Friday..as well as Wednesday Night Warcawks, and Unreal Tournament's Chicken Fried Steak Saturdays.... soon to be Sadies & Sadistic's Slaughter Saturday..lol. To those who participated and lost, don't fret..it's not whether you win or lose but how good you made us feel kicking your butt. Till next week!!

Oh almost forgot..after the matches a few us got on our cameras and had us a pow wow..till the wee hours of the morning. The Dtoiders in question are below..as one of our Dtoiders is poor and lives in the Ghetto and didn't have the new Playtation Eye, all you see is his cute "W00t!" avatar of a strawberry girl..awww cute. Pics below of our four way chat session. Next week I'd like to see two more join our Jedi Council to see how Six people runs. How does a fourway video chat session people run? Flawlessly.










Cheers.

wtf is takeshi drinking a 40?
MrSadistic's Destructoid Blog
w00t!
MrSadistic's Destructoid Blog
Also, I'm not getting a Playstation Eye, because then it would ruin the awesome aura that is around my name and legacy. I like to be the mysterious type, who likes to fuck shit up.
Y0j1mb0's Destructoid Blog
The mysterious guy with the strawbrry shortcake looking avatar.

Also, W00t! and Happy Bunny Day to all.

You should graduate and play Xbox 360 with the big boys.
Sadie G's Destructoid Blog
Real men play PS3, little boys play Xbox 360.
AfroJoel's Destructoid Blog
I DIDNT KNOW YOU COULD PLAY A CONSOLE THAT DOESNT HAVE ANY GAMES

HAHAHAHAHAHAH

ShadowXOR:

You should get you an avatar that other people can see,get out off your moma's house, and stop trolling the PS3 section. May I suggest you do what you normally do on your Saturday nights..go to your Xbox 360 with your tub of lubricant and masturbate to it.

Nice to see you back though.
ShadowXOR's Destructoid Blog
I still read Destructoid I just don't participate anymore. But I have to make at least one inflammatory comment per month now. I don't have a choice, friendo.
Steel Squirrel's Destructoid Blog
Hey guys, I don't have a PS3....... but I am a real man.....

Also, what is that? A PS3 based video-chat program? That's awesome.

I would like to get a PS3 one of these days when I am no longer poor. God of War III, SOCOM, and whatever game the ICO team is working on, will be worth it alone....... oh and maybe Tekken 6 if Namco doesn't fuck it up. Dark Resurrection on the PS3 was awful.
Y0j1mb0's Destructoid Blog
Steel Squirrel:

How was your Rainbow Six Vegas 2 online matches? I picked mine up earlier tonight. Will probably be puyying time on it starting tomorow. I love rainbow.

I'm not much of a Tekken fan..so I feel your judgement of it is quite kind. Virtua Fighter 5 is where it's at...that and Third Strike.
Y0j1mb0's Destructoid Blog
puyying ..lol..putting.
EternalDeathSlayer's Destructoid Blog
I had terrible fucking lag after a while in the second match. Dunno why.

I keep forgetting to switch weapons and instead keep shooting my enforcer pistols. I did get Gunslinger though. I'm pretty good with them.

Fuck you dude, I stayed with you most of the time.
MrSadistic's Destructoid Blog
Hey Jimbo, I heard you're an eSkank. Is this true?
EternalDeathSlayer's Destructoid Blog
Where the fuck have you been ShadowXOR?
Y0j1mb0's Destructoid Blog
An Eskank, huh? I think I read that somewhere..lol.
Steel Squirrel's Destructoid Blog
@ Y0j1mb0

The online matches are really fun so far, I ran into a few laggy matches the first night it came out, but that is to be expected. There's more strategy involved with this one than the first, the maps are excellent!

Also, I'm not quite sure why everyone is hating the Vegas 2 so much. It seems like a Vegas 1.5 at first, but once you realize how balanced they've made it and all the little things that are in there, it becomes apparent that it's a much better game than the first Vegas. Just because it doesn't redefine anything doesn't mean that it's a bad game.

Yes, I'll have to say that Virtua Fighter 5 is one of the best fighters out there, but that Tekken 5 was the pinnacle of Tekken-ness. Very balanced and no shitty air juggles. I'm just a sucker still, for some of the characters I guess.
EternalDeathSlayer's Destructoid Blog
You up for Vegas 2 tommorow night J1mb0? I'm not sure I'll be around but I'm definitely playing Vegas 2 if I get the chance. Let me know if you see me online.
Y0j1mb0's Destructoid Blog
Steel Squirrel:

I know..I've heard the "Oh it's the same"..guess what?? I don't care. I played the HELL out of the first Veags..got my Elite Status and all the achievements online.. that was the one game that put the nail on the coffin for Gears of War online play for me.

Now I'm ready to get back to it. Been playing COD4 like crazy..I don't see me stopping that..but I do see me playing Rainbow as much as that and UT3.


EDS:
I'm up for it 100%. And I will send you an invite if I see you on.
shipero's Destructoid Blog
We talked for a long time last night. At least two hours I believe.

w00t
\ ^_^ /
EternalDeathSlayer's Destructoid Blog
You dropped Gears of War for Vegas? Wow....I'm the total opposite. I never played Vegas, because of Gears of War and it's awesome online play. It's a bare-bones package really, but Gears is just a blast to play.
Crunshii's Destructoid Blog
godangit!! Ive been playing remotely and I dont see you guys playing! Y0j1mb0 add me to your psn :( Ive been playing UT3/CoD4 vs random peeps. I prefer to kill fellow Dtoiders instead o_O;

psn: Crunshii
MrSadistic's Destructoid Blog
I'm hopping on for a quick fix of some Unreal Tournament III DM lovin' if anyone wants to join me.
Sharpless's Destructoid Blog
I have to say, Yojimbo, you and Sadie and the other PS3ers have been the best advertisement for the PS3 that I've seen. You guys actually make me wish I owned one.
Y0j1mb0's Destructoid Blog
Crunshii:

Expect a friend request soon from me..it will be from my PSN tag of k0wb0y-b33b0p. I just have to clear some room as I've reached my friend limit a while ago. I'll have to look thru it and see who doesn't play with us and send you a friend invite.
Y0j1mb0's Destructoid Blog
Sharpless:

I wish you had one too so you could join us in our battles my friend..and our goofy videochat sessions as well. Next week I'll have six Dtoiters on our session..lol. Takeshi and I were drunk, trying not to laugh our asses off all the time. Good times and Shipero I went to bed like 4:15 AM.
EternalDeathSlayer's Destructoid Blog
Perhaps I'll look into the EyeToy this week. Dunno. Not sure if I can afford it until next week, but we'll see. At least I payed off FF Crisis Core and GTA4 this week.
Sadie G's Destructoid Blog
@Sharpless

I'm telling you...before buying one there is a LOT of second guessing but the minute I got one, I never once regretted buying one where as the 360/Wii I never had the same connection.

Also, I'm a huge movie fan and blu-ray is amazing. Seriously though, I have so much fun with the PS3.
DarkTravesty's Destructoid Blog
damn it sounds like you guys had fun... oh well. i'd join in the video chat if i'm ever on just shoot me a message that is if i'm not afk.
shipero's Destructoid Blog
@EDS

Amazon had a really good deal on the Playstation Eye and Eye of Judgement. Unfortunately, when I got on to find a link for you it looks like the deal's over. Great bargain too, I think it was like $10 of the camera alone and $25 off of EOJ.
kami's Destructoid Blog
Team TOID killed on that one game of domination we played. Good work boys...and yeah, something got screwed up after that match. I got into a party with Takeshi and darktravesty (i think) for a bit, but we couldn't get you guys to join us. I guess there's always next week...
Ha-Puken's Destructoid Blog
good times, good times... Can't wait for next week! If the amount of fun I had this week (between Warcawks & UT3) could be measured in wit, I'd have enough for a funny joke.
Samit Sarkar's Destructoid Blog
Aw, it’s good to know that I’m missed. I’m heading back to school tonight (Sunday), so rest assured, I’ll be back in action for WNW and FNF this week!
Gameboi's Destructoid Blog
Had a great time, while it lasted. After we split up, Takeshi and I went a couple of rounds. Funny how the two of us could play each other, but no-one else. We're not exactly neighbors. He owned my ass, as usual, but I had a blast.

Hope to reunite the whole team again soon.
Takeshi's Destructoid Blog
w00t!

About the chat:
Oh good times, good times. It almost killed me in the end. I had been awake for 27 hours by the time we were done with it. Which was hilarious. The chat that is. Being awake for so long, not that much.

About the games:
That was pretty damn good. I was drunk and need and had a blast. I need to drink more often because I wasn't half bad.

@Sadistic, Jimbo and Shipero
You guys are awesome *smiley face*! w00t!

@Sadie
It's just regular Coke. 1.5 litres. I had to get sober.

@Gameboi
I'm glad we had a good connection. I find it pretty strange that you, me and Y0jimb0 always have a good connection. We were playing the Team Domination and suddenly Y0j1mb0 and I got separated from the rest. I'm glad you've got a mic now (is it the PS-EYE? If so, come join us in the chat).

@Kami
At first it was good. But when suddenly I couldn't get you into the party.

@Anyone I forgot
You guys rock! I had a blast.
razerangel's Destructoid Blog
I need to get in on this sometime for some UT, COD4 and Warhawk!

hit me up on PSN: razerangel
Simmy's Destructoid Blog
I've been menaing to get in on PS3 FNF for a while. Playing UT3 really hasn't been that enjoyable - which is a shame. I reckon I might go and swap for COD4.
And are we looking to have deathmatches and the like when GTA4 comes out in a little over a month?
xMalachi's Destructoid Blog
I couldn't find the game to play in on UT3 =(
Sharpless's Destructoid Blog
@Sadie, Yojimbo
Well, if I ever get the spare cash, I'll pick up a PS3 for sure. Right after I get the 360. :)
