Friday Night Fights: College is the anti-FNF edition photo

Thank God winter break is almost upon us.

I'm not sure where the rest of you stand on the matter, but for a lot of us currently enrolled in college, this is the most insane part of any semester, and it's not the good kind of insane, either.

Being forced to write extraordinarily long papers is enough to break a man, and that's why Friday Night Fights is needed more than ever. Join us online tonight if you need a break in between cram sessions, or if you're morally fine with screwing over your assignments to play videogames instead.

Also, us Xbox 360 players finally got our act together and somehow have multiple hosts for tonight's festivities ... for once. Can you feel the magic?

Hah. This is why I love my college. We're on the block plan, meaning we take one class for three and a half weeks and then it's over. So I'm working on my final project for my only class. Still a bitch, though.
I just hear the word "finals" and get a perplexed look on my face. "Why did you put an s on the end?"

Well...fuck. If any of you have seen the news today, New Hampshire is in a State of Emergency due to severe icing and snow. Over 1,000,000(!) people have lost power, and my internet has slowed to a crawl, and anytime I attempt to play something on LIVE it lags like a motherfucker. I will keep trying it, but it looks like I can't host tonight. :(

What's up folks. For people who are doing the PS3 thing, we're trying to start a meetup in the destructoid readers club, just search it in the club section in your home menu and send me a request and I'll add you.

It's easier to find each other there and I think you can launch into a game strait from home, but we haven't tried it yet. Anyway, were just hanging out and talking right now if anyone wants to come down.

I'll be hanging in our home clubhouse till 930est when the resistance games start up, then im heading to play lbp at 11. See you guys there.

Been a while since I joined a FNF, but looks like it will be a while more. Likely hanging out with friends tonight, and my copy of Left 4 Dead hasn't arrived yet, and I haven't gotten W@W. But I do look forward to playing with yall on my new 42'' TV =D.

I'm kinda tempted to try the ship. I love cloak and dagger gameplay and I hear that's full of it.

I'm passing on FNF this week, since I've been working all week and still have to finish a lengthy script. That was due Thursday. Yeah...

I just finished writing my inorganic chemistry exam. Who schedules exams for 6:30pm on a Friday night!? Thankfully seeing the Raptors mop up Vince Carter and the Nets along with news that DeRo is coming to my TFC helped make me feel better :D.

Now since I don't have my PS3 with me, I have a bottle of Canadian Club to attend to before I go out.

Game night starts now! Hooray!

If you don't know my name on xbox live, it should be obvious. Same name there as here, as anywhere.
