PS3 FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHTS!! Resurgence.
Y0j1mb0 | 1:52 PM on 03.21.2008 55 comments




I'm going to just flat out and say it as real as I possibly can.. I love Friday Night Fights and Wednesday Night Warcawks.( Which wouldn't have even happened without it's mad creator bhive...my thanks for that! ) I remember when we ventured on this trek and it was a limp turnout here, another limp turnout there, I remember when it was just Shipero, Sadistic and myself just running around trying to kill each other like loony birds doing circles, and now look.

Our attendance has been in an incline for weeks now and we keep getting more and more people filling in our online gaming community. This is what it's all about. Last Warcawks was fantastic. We have an influx of old school and new members alike, as well as Destructoid's own Editors/Writers entering the fray and things are only getting better.

I don't know if it's just people finally giving the PS3 a try, but there has been a noticeable shift in attendance and I for one, nay WE for one, are almost shedding a tear of joy. Perhaps the PS3 is coming on it's own and if this is the case..it's about time. We've , PS3 diehards, have been here for a year and it seems like now people are coming around. At this time I would like to send some kudos to a few members of our Dtoid community that without their support Friday Night Fights would not be possible.

Everyone on Destructoid..thank you. Niero, Ron, all you guys, appreciate it. Snaileb, I kinda just started posting out of the blue but your support that you offer is always appreciated. Shipero, Sadistic..what can I say..you guys rule. And last but not least..EVERYBODY that joins us on our Friday Night Fights excursions.. you have my many thanks. Keep joining us online and for those who haven't joined us in the festivities..Get your LAZY asses up off that sofa and do so. :D

Enough with the love unto the carnage!!

The Games & Times:

The Unreal Tournament Festivities will be starting at 8pm EST and will be hosted by none other than our own residential psychopath: Mr Sadistic.

Call Of Duty 4 will begin at 9:30pm EST and will be hosted by yours truly Dtoid's own y0j1mb0. Tonight we fight as a team. I need some soldiers to represent Destructoid. Let's take the pain to them and rank up together.

After we finish with COD4 Warhawk will be on the menu @ about 10pmEST..Password TOID..as usual. Hosted by Shipero. I'm hoping we have an open server for a clan match..I leave that to Shipero..as well as attendance.

Shipero doesn't partake in COD4 because of these delusions of being in a ROCK BAND. Maybe you can join him and show him how it's done. Or maybe some BURNOUT PARADISE? He thinks he's Steve McQueen too. Damn Shipero you need help buddy.

For those who don't own COD4 or the others don't fret as the UT3 game hosted by Sadistic will be going on until at least 10pm EST or until you get demoralized by Sadistic and quit.

RAINBOW SIX VEGAS 2 will be making it's official debut next Friday for all you Mercs out there. I'm one of them.

Bring it gents. Hope to see the lot of you there so I can bust a cap in your face. Leave that PSN Tag below and let me know something.

Oh and Blindside Dork I owe you an ass whipping in Warhawk!!

Hmmm... did pretty good in UT III except for that last match when a) I sucked b) didn't know where the action was until half-way through the match, and c) some bitch-ass bot kept spamming the link gun

Sorry for being a dick, the whole point of FNF is to have fun, and like I said before I'm really glad someone took care of the PS3 crowd personally. Next time I think someone is being a dick, I'll PM them personally.

I was happy with my UT3 performance, sorry I had to leave but my son wouldn't go to bed again. We decided to color easter eggs instead.
Corak's Destructoid Blog
Yea I accepted the invites but it never let me connect either. I didn't try resetting my router but by the time I thought of it I already decided to call it a night. Reading that I wasn't the only one having that problem I'm not sure if it would have helped anyway.
