Friday Night Fights: Memorial Day weekend edition photo

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull or Friday Night Fights ... there can only be one.

If you've already gone this long without seeing Indy IV, waiting one more day isn't going to kill you. Besides, we've got more Call of Duty 4, Grand Theft Auto IV, and Team Fortress 2 lined up, which is almost too much fun to cram into one evening.

Don't believe me? Here's a comment left by Dtoider Arttemis on last week's FNF post: "Damn, that was awesome sh*t. My first Dtoid Friday Night Fight, too! The first time I actually enjoyed XBL."

Now do you see what you people are missing out on!?

[Thanks, CaffeinePowered, coonskin05, Pedro, Professor Pew, and Shipero!]

I know me and a few IRC guys are going to be going for the 360 TF2 achievement that requires you to play with at least seven of your friends at once, so if you've got the console version of The Orange Box, be sure to hit us up. I'm fairly certain ZServ and Dexter345 might be in the game, and my GT = NecrosTerminus.

I’ll be out, unfortunately. And as for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, it’s certainly worth seeing if you’re a fan of the franchise at all, but it’s nothing special. 7/10.

Indy was an abortion put on film. Without a doubt the worst in the series. I don't know how anyone attached to the film isn't embarrassed about how it turned out.

No suspense, no excitement, and far too many groan inducing moments. Hell, in the big climax they were just walking along while the CGI crap exploded around them. It just didn't feel like the Indy movies of 20 years ago. Everything felt just too sanitary, not gritty and dirty like the old films.

The way the film was shot reminded me of Minority Report. Bloom effects, halo lighting, nothing having real sharp edges and instead just blurry to hide CGI.

Well this was a big fucking dose of fail. I join the passworded server and get kicked because they "didn't know me", and they seemed real shocked that the password to their private room was posted on dtoid. I tried the other server, but it says my gravelpit map doesn't match the server. What the fuck guys?

how does this work, you just post your gamertag and the host sees it and adds you or something?

If that's how it is, my XBL gamertag is Nightrain117

We played a Free For All match in Bohan. Was supposed to be us again Liberty City Cops, but of course started with a storm of bullet fire as we all spawned in the same spot and tried to kill each other until we figured out that friendly fire was off.

So we slew hundreds upon hundreds of Libery Cities finest, then started running each other over, and TwinkieFGR, the bastard... pinned me to the ground with a firehose while the cops shot me.

Was pretty damn funny..

THEY'RE SHOOTING ME STOP! lol

Only those who participated will get the joke:

"Standing tall, on the wings of my dreams...."
"Cousin Niko!"
"Rise and fall, on the wings of my dreams...."
"Beeg American Teetees!"

My God, that shit was hysterical. Good times.

Also, for those that were there when the joke happened. :D
