A lot of games have been put out lately for our greedy and eager hands to get to, so I thought it would be fitting to see if they would work together like good boys and girls tonight. One I lambasted real good when it first came out and the other I haven't had the chance to pick up yet and need a host for, that being FARCRY2. If anybody wants to host this game... let me know in the comments below and I will add it to the lineup via a blog update.There has also been a little time changeroo for a few games as well. Let us walk together and peruse the changes together. I promise not to bite... hard.
First thing is first:
The festivities begin with TEKKEN. The time will be 8:30PM EST. Your host will be SantanaClaus aka Moosehole. Time to see if you got what it takes to hang with the big boys. Santana and his Bear are ready to feast on some noobs. See if you can you take that fool out. Somehow I don't foresee that happening. Good luck. You'll need it here.lol.
Also on the same timeslot is Shipero hosting BUZZ Quiz TV Show for the more cerebral crowd. Below is a taste of what you'll find. Shipero raping you not seen in video.
Let it be known that we here at PS3 FNF can not be accused of lacking diversity as Shipero will be trying to showcase his superior knowledge of all things trivia in the extraordinary video game of BUZZ! the Quiz TV show. The time will be 8:30pmEST. Think you can stump him in Music, Movies, or science? I've tried and he has bested me. Pssst, pick sports. Now's your chance to show him and all of Dtoid what your made of. Get those buzzers going and destroy the competition for bragging rights as we debut this awesome game. I will be one of the contestants, who will join Shipero and I tonight??
Next is our PS3FNF Vet:
Time: 10pm EST. Takeshi will be your COD4 Host. So who's going to be there with the Dutchman and the rest tonight? I have missed the fields of chaos that is COD4. Who will welcome me back proper to this game? YOU. That's who!! Come and join the world class Dtoid clan and witness precision and efficiency in killing like you have never seen before. That and listen to me be drunk rambling on as well.
Alexdradl will be debuting FARCRY 2. Time: Same as COD4 10pmEST. For those wanting to shoot people in an African setting, here's your chance. I'll be picking this game up tonight, so I may join the festivities. I'm also thinking of having a contest with this game in the future regarding user created maps. More info soon on that.
Then the Debut of a Man's Game. That's right. This game you get shot, you go down. The game that I said in an earlier blog you shouldn't get because there servers were down. SOCOM: Confrontation. Their servers are up and the gameplay is rock solid. Gentlemen and fans of military warfare your game has finally arrived. SOCOM rocks and if you're going to get you the new Official PS3 Bluetooth headset that costs 49.99 and is awesome!, you may as well get it with SOCOM for ten bucks more. The Destructoid Clan is ready for you to join it as are SantanaClaus, Ironpikeman and Myself. Hereis a pep talk of mythic proportions to get you riled up.
The time for SOCOM will be 11pm EST. Santanaclaus89 aka Moosehole will be hosting. All interested parties drop a friend request to him or me, my PSN is k0wb0y-b33b0p. We will instruct you with server info via PSN message and let you get your death dance with us. I hope to see a lot of you guys. The matches that Moosehole and I have played have been fucking glorious. Join us soldier. You wont regret it.
Also on tap @ 11pmEST will be the Resistance2 BETA. Alexradl will be your host again. You da man.
Seeing as the Beta has a wonderful friend matching system, all who have it please leave your PSN name below, that way everybody can know who's on and roll with them accordingly. 8 player co-op is tasty indeed and adversarial 60 player matches are the stuff of epicness.
And finally the game that has been infused with new life with bikes and trophies. None other than..
Shipero will be hosting yet again @ 11:30pm EST for the night owls the vehicular mayhem that is Burnout Paradise City. Yes for those that can't get enough of that Guns N Roses song and races at the speed of light into incoming traffic, you're game to play is here. We will be tearing up the road as well as acquiring trophies together. Come join the fun and let me add your mugshot to my collection.
How's THAT for a line up?? The games are lined up. The times are set. All we need is you. Will you join us?? All interested parties holla below. We'll see you online tonight.
I doubt anyone will show up for Supersonic Rocket-Powered Battle Cars so if it's not too much trouble can you swap that out with the Resistance 2 beta. Also, no one has been showing up for WipEout the past few weeks so you can put Far Cry 2 in that time slot and I'll host some matches. So...
#1 Tekken may be old but when I had SC4 nobody showed up. Including YOU.
#2 Burnout isn't Burned out. As our attendance of it is quite large and people are still wanting to play it. Not only that but with the recent Trophy patch and lower price point people are just now giving it a second look.
#3 CoD4 has been played out?? REALLY?? Again, attendance in this game also is quite healthy. As for your FARCRY2 inclusion...did you not READ the beiginning of this FNF post. The first thing I said was if anybody wants to host FARCRY2, let me know and I will include it.
#4 I included SOCOM because own it yes, but it has been requested by others. If you recall on the last FNF post I said I wasn't because the severs were not up to par.
A quick FYI to you Jack, I own a shitload of games. If you care to have a game you want in it, as always when I post FNF post, I encourage you to tell me. I will work to put it in there, no problems.
When I offered a lineup change for our FNF rotation in an earlier post, curiously I didn't see you offer any suggestions.
Again, let me know if you want to include a game and it will be done. Your dickish bullet points please keep to yourself.
Alexradl are you going to host FARCRY2? I'll update now if so.
Resistance BETA I will add as well. Thanks for the heads up. I included Supersonic Rocket-Powered Battle Cars because I assumed you wanted to host that, my bad but no biggie for the change.
I just got my beta code for Resistance 2 today!!! So depending how long the download takes me I'm down for that. Also farcry 2 I'd be willing to try but if there are only 2 or 3 of us there I'd rather play COD4.
I'm getting in late because of work, but I'm DEFINITELY in for some Resistance 2 Beta. I just got in last night and it's AMAZING. Likewise, I'm down for some Rock Band 2 if the time affords me a chance to.
Sadly SOCOM is an online only affair. No single player whatsoever. That includes LAN. If you're in the market for a new Bluetooth headset though, it's a no brainer getting it bundled with the game for an additional 10 buck more.
The game is impressive now that they are sorting out their servers issues.
Might be there for COD4, Tekken, but not really in the mood for gaming online,some personal stuff going on, if you see me on Saints Row 2 guys, then I'll stay on that.
Please someone answer me , i'll get my PStriple 10 november , with MGS4 , Ninja gaiden sigma and Warhawk , I BOGUHT WARHAWK ONLY TO PLAY IN FNF , PLEASE ... can ya add to the list in the fnf after 10 november ???
Didn't get a chance to download the RE2 beta, 2 gigs would have taken a while, so I jumped on Farcry only to have no one else there, well Alex for a bit. The multiplayer in Farcry is allright, not the main focus of the game, there is a good outdoor level I played that is great for snipers.

Also if anyone one wants to put some time in with a Rock Band 2 online tour I'll be playing at the usual time (10PM EDT).
Shipero:
Ooops! I forgot to include your ROCK BAND/ROCK BAND2 shenanigans.
You guys make me sad I don't own more PS3 games :(
Hey, whatever happened to Poker night?
WE REALLY NEED SOME NEW FNF ENTERIES.
#1 Tekken is old and SC4 is better.
#2 Burnout has been burnt out since early this year.
#3 CoD4 has been played out to the 4rd degree. Farcry 2 would have been alot better.
#4 You only picked Socom because YOU are one of three people that plays it.
I doubt anyone will show up for Supersonic Rocket-Powered Battle Cars so if it's not too much trouble can you swap that out with the Resistance 2 beta. Also, no one has been showing up for WipEout the past few weeks so you can put Far Cry 2 in that time slot and I'll host some matches. So...
Far Cry 2: 9:30PM
Resistance 2 Beta: 11:00PM
Sound good?
Sorry I didn't PM earlier today about this :p
Jack of Trades:

If you include the Resistance Beta I may be in, as I don't actually own any games yet.
Yeah, I'll be hosting Far Cry 2, as well as Resistance 2 Beta.

Fuck you old man.
*Hows that for dickish?
*oh, and I was just pulling your leg with my last comment*
@Y0J1MBO
If you are not hooked up to the internet can you play SOCOM in anyway shape or form, single player, friends over...etc?

Might pick it up along with FarCry2.....not sure though.

Rockin' the R2 beta.
I'm in the R2 beta, last night I tried to find a co-op game and was unsuccessful. If I can get on the 8p co-op, I'll be there.

Hmm change of plans. I just looked at my inbox and found an R2 beta code so I guess that's what I'll be playing. :D
Who's got Burnout?

Naim Master I will add Warhawk for you bro. No worries.
I will bite and try the Res 2 beta tonight if YOU GUYS WILL TAKE ME (<3?)
I'll be on the resistance beta for a bit before Burnout. I really want to give CO-OP a try.
My Resistance 2 key hit my inbox a few hours ago. I'm gonna try and get into that if PSN stops jerking me around.
Does the Resistance beta even let you into competitive multiplayer? All I can get into is coop.
Here is the SOCOM information:
Channel: CLAN GAMES
Server: DTOID FNF
Wonder what I'd have to do to get a Resistance 2 Beta key....
Didn't get a chance to download the RE2 beta, 2 gigs would have taken a while, so I jumped on Farcry only to have no one else there, well Alex for a bit. The multiplayer in Farcry is allright, not the main focus of the game, there is a good outdoor level I played that is great for snipers.
