While the games industry as a whole may still be in boring news mode, we have got some fantastic info to share, namely the forums are back in action and are now sexier than ever.

Even better yet, there's a newfangled Friday Night Fights section, which I hope everyone will make a habit of using to announce the games they will be hosting.

Ideally, this subsection of the forums should be used for sign-ups and anything related to FNF in general, although it's perfectly fine to continue making community blogs if that's more your style.

As for the video above, it's Half left's recap of last week's Euro FNF. Yup, this is the hotness you guys are missing out on by not getting your asses online.

[Thanks, blehman, craineum, Gibbo, Half left, ryu89, ScottyG, Shipero, and Zombutler]
