Friday Night Fights: Farewell, E3 edition

Friday Night Fights: Farewell, E3 edition photo
     PC

E3 2008 has finally come to a close. You've read the hands-on reports and saw the trailers for your most anticipated games, but now it's time for us to play the waiting game.

This year's E3 was far from amazing, but you have to admit, there were some incredible games being shown off at the expo. Mirror's Edge, Fallout 3, and Resident Evil 5 topped my "DO WANT" list -- how about you? What games are you most excited about?

For the time being, we'll just have to settle on playing games that have already been released. A sad thought indeed, but Friday Night Fights is here to ease the pain.

Hit the jump for tonight's hosts.

[Thanks, CaffeinePowered, Demios, EuroFNF, insomnia, Mushman, Qraze, Team Fortress 2, and Y0j1mb0]

Mini-guide for meeting up with Dtoiders for Super Smash Bros. Brawl or Mario Kart:

The IRC way: head on over to this Web site (or start up your own IRC client) and type "/join #dtoid-brawl" (or even #destructoid) without the quotation marks.

The Ventrilo way: download and install Vent. Then use the following info to log onto Dtoid's server:

• IP/Hostname: VOICE-VA2.BRANZONE.COM
• Port: 3790
• Password: None

Once you're in, you'll need to use the password "ftw" to access the Social Lounge.

The Xbox 360 way: use Xbox LIVE to chat with people on your friends list. Steam or an IM client will work fine too.

    Suggested Games:
  • Agent MOO: Maximum Overdeath
  • Team Fortress 2:
    If you own a TF2 server and would like to get the word out, please feel free to do so by making a comment on this post or by creating a community blog. If you don't understand why I'm not listing servers here, then you probably missed out on all of the hostility between community members.

I guess there's no GTA arrangement. Either way, I probably won't get on.

Hey, so, I'm actually around and up for Burnout, Gears, GTA IV, Halo 3, and Rock Band, though I really wanna play Burnout for once. GT is NecrosTerminus, and if no one does it, I'd host any of those, especially Burnout.
