Halo 3 Friday Night Fights: Que Chingados? [Contest Update]
 by vexed alex on 04.25.2008      20 comments






Leeeet’s get ready to ruuumbleeeee!

So, after taking a being away last week, I’m back for some more plasma sticks, beat downs, head shots, and vehicle mayhem. I’m ready to plant some bombs, capture some flags, and kill some zombies. I hope you guys are too, and I hope you brought your game faces because tonight is going to focus a lot on competitive matches. Don’t be frightened. We’ll still run our crazy-funky gametypes, but I thought tonight would be a cool time see people’s skills put to the test.

Tonight’s games will range from stock objective based games, to some SWAT. From competitive games we’ll move a long and play our usual zombie chase matches and funky “random weapons spawn” odd ball/king of the hill games. The casual games, if you will. It’s too bad Ghost Town isn’t free because that map is great not only for killing each other, but King of the Hill is a blast. I could also see it turning into a good map to play infection on.

If you do have the new maps, stick with us throughout the night. We’ll eventually play them, but not after the wee hours of the morning - probably around 2 AM Eastern or somethin’. Of course that all could change depending on the conditions, but that change is most likely to mean that we’ll play them earlier than predicted.

The games begin between 9 and 10 PM Eastern/6 and 7 PM Western. If you see my gamertag on Halo 3 during those hours, throw me a message. I’ll send you an invite. As far as sending friend requests go, send me a message as well. My list is 96% full. I have to go on a friend deletion run soon. As always, please PM me if you have any new maps you want to run, or you can ask for host during the night. I’m pretty liberal with my hosting duties so don’t be afraid to ask for anything. Mi casa es su casa. Comprende?

Contests?

Look for a post from me later this month. You guys have given me such awesome nights on Fridays when I don’t have anything to do (which is most of them). I want to give back, but to not be a rank whore, I’m holding this baby on FNF. So this means you won’t need to have some insane photoshopping skills, or need to have amazing writing skills (God knows I don’t), and it won’t be a “be number X in the comments to win.” It's like a cheap way to rank up. Not that I care about my rank or anything, but it's still wrong.

I’ll give out more details later on, so look out for that. Also, chances are you won’t have to be a Halo master; however, it will affect your chances of winning. I will leak out the prize, which will be a simple couple of points cards. How much and how many will be revealed later.

P.S. - Tonight is going to be drama free. I promise you. Salman and Heretic aren't going to say a word to each other, and if they do, and it's to bitch to each other, the bannings will commence.

Contest update: I've decided to let you all know what the prizes are going to be. The first two winners are going to get $20 worth of Microsoft points, and I haven't decided, but the last winner may end up getting $50 worth of Microsoft points. Again, I'll explain the rules later, so keep an eye out.

Halo FNF for Friday the 25th of April is now over.

I just bought the map pack last night and I'm totally ready for some Halo. No matter how hard I try, I can't seem to get into CoD4 again, despite how much I like it. I've made my peace with Halo, though. Up until now, it's always been "that one game that I only play a lot because I don't have any other online shooters", but I think I like it more than I thought now.

Anyway, I'll most likely be on for Halo tonight.

Halo 3 Friday Night Fights

Check with me for your Halo 3 Friday Night Fights needs. If you'd like to partake, just send me a message saying "FNF" on XBOX Live and I'll send you a friend request or an invite. If you'd like to suggest some maps and/or gametypes, please PM me here or send me an e-mail.

Also, please download the current free Halo 3 maps. They are now required for Friday Night Fights as you no longer have to pay for them. The next batch of maps will be played later in the night due to those costing money. I have to spread the fun around. If you have anymore questions feel free to hit me up on g-talk (Alexandorator@gmail.com).

Make sure to read my Friday posts. Recaps from las week's games will be posted on there. That way you can see what kind of nonsense we get into on Fridays. It's good for you newbies.

Having trouble deciding whether the Legendary Map Pack is worth the $10? Check out my blog post to see if they're right for you.
