Friday Night Fights: Red Faction edition

7:36 PM on 08.08.2008, Jordan Grim Devore 26 comments

Friday Night Fights: Red Faction edition photo
     PC

I've been waiting nearly two years to use that picture of Arnold Schwarzenegger suffocating on Mars in Total Recall, and I finally got an excuse to post it. I would've rather gone with this, but it's a tad bit NSFW.

It's a shame we weren't able to give out beta codes for Red Faction Guerrilla here at Destructoid, but if you were lucky enough to grab one elsewhere, I hope you'll join us for a few rounds of banging the hell out of stuff.

Everyone else: have fun playing whatever the heck it is you play these days.

[Thanks, AgentMOO, CaffeinePowered, EuroFNF, insomnia, wilbo, 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 #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.

Anyone want to play Rock Band on PS3? I'm not sure how that would be hosted or anything... But I'll set up the room for invites if someone wants to.
I'm not sure how long I can play, but hey.

If I were playing anything on-line, it'd probably be CoD 4 for the PC at the Jiggly's Fun House server. It's filled with awesome people, go there and be bewildered by Titty.

I can count like, I don't know, three reasons why that other picture should have been used on the front page.

I think I will be playing Uncharted/Pixel Junk Monsters...maybe

PROTIP: Red Faction beta is currently in OPEN status, I just snagged a key from FilePlanet (without being a subscriber) like 5 minutes ago.

No reason why anyone else can't do the same. ;P

Sadly, I'm not available this week, but hopefully soon, that should not be an issue.

I'm hopping on MGS4 for a bit. My Character name is Henrietta Scab if you wanna hooks up.

Might get on for SC4 on PS3 later. My PSN name is CornedBeefSmash.

Wow, thanks for the heads up on the beta, st00z. Anyhow, I've never really done any of the Friday Night Fight things around here, but I guess tonight's as good a night as any to get the ball rolling.

If anybody's interested in some Red Faction or perhaps Rock Band, you can hit me up on Live later in the evening.
