Friday Night Fights: Indestructible tournament edition photo

Howdy, everyone. How's this fine Friday afternoon been treating you?

Don't answer that question, because all responses have one solution: Friday Night Fights. Member participation seems to be up tonight, which I can only assume means schedules are starting to even out for some of you guys.

Or maybe you've collectively decided to push your responsibilities into the far reaches of your brain where thoughts go to die. Either way, I can most certainly dig it. There's also a bit of good news on the tournament front -- if you hadn't already noticed, the next game will be Street Fighter IV.

That'll be starting up next Friday, so for now, consider this tease a reminder to start practicing your tiger uppercuts. As always, there will be sweet gaming loot up for grabs. Stay tuned for more (aka actual) details.

Quick guide to FNF for new players: Each week, a bunch of Destructoid readers and usually an editor or two get together to play some videogames online. Fun times!

The planning for FNF takes place in the forums, where Dtoiders volunteer to host by posting their information (gamertag, time to meet up, game, etc.) in the forum post corresponding to the system they're interested in playing on.

Then, every Friday, reminder posts for those who don't read the forums regularly go up in the community blogs section all thanks to a dedicated group of cool individuals. And for everyone who wants their info all in one place, they have got my weekly recap posts which you are currently reading.

Now that you're here, just scan the list below and find a game you want to play. All that's left to do after that is to join the match by contacting the host below using any means necessary. For Wii, you might have to be a little creative, but for 360/PS3 a simple "invite plz" message will be fine.

If you want to get your gaming done later on in the evening, scroll on down past this section, otherwise hit up the following European hosts/early FNFers for a good time.

I believe we have to stick with PC again for the tournament, but I'm not 100% on that yet. We know you guys want console support, honest!

Hey Grim, you will want to at least put up a reminder for SFIV PC, telling people to DISABLE the "variable frame rate" setting. It makes the online matches laggy.

We're thinking it will be the same as COD4 -- multi-console to participate, with finals played on PC. We're also adding a few more features to make the system easier to use.

By the way, you can now connect using Facebook. It's in beta right now but it's live. Look for an official announcement for me in a bit :)
