If only good games could be released throughout the entire year, rather than being bunched together during the November/December rush to get stuff out the door in time for Christmas.
For starters, we wouldn't have to skip out on certain games in place for others as a result of a tight budget, and we'd also have something new to play during the dreaded summer period that's home to shovelware and movie tie-ins.
Seeing as how that's probably never going to happen, it looks like we're stuck with the same old, same old for Friday Night Fights. Hit the jump for the host listings.

Mini-guide for meeting up with Dtoiders for Super Smash Bros. Brawl or Mario Kart Wii:
The IRC way: head on over to this Web site (or start up your own IRC client) and type "/join #dtoid-brawl" 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 360 way: use your Xbox 360 to chat with people on your friends list. Steam or IM will work fine too.
Games- Agent MOO: Maximum Overdeath
- Team Fortress 2:
There's been a whole lot of Internet drama surrounding certain community members and this game, so from here on out, I will unfortunately no longer be promoting any servers.
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. I'm sorry if you are affected by this new ruling and weren't responsible for causing it, but that's just the way it's going to be.
The following hosts are European, and may or may not still be hosting by the time you read this:
- BunnyRabbit2 / wardrox (Halo 3 - Xbox 360)

Those are zeros not Os.
As far as I know the brbuninstalling servers are still doing Friday Night Fights tonight (probably with the password "point", as usual).
Also, what about the offical TF2 D-toid server you guys could do it on?
I really understand the problem here.
Don't have new Halo or COD4 maps so take that into account, down for whatever.
Drama happened. Some people in the community don't like some other people in the community. Neither side seems to want to just forget about it, both occasionally taking swipes at each other. Then, like Rummy said, the refusal of certain people to actually try and resolve the issues with the community, choosing instead to completely ignore it.
...
In short, there's several servers you can choose from (look here for a few, and here for another one). Unless something has changed, none of the servers are "official" Destructoid TF2 servers. Just servers run by dtoiders who like TF2, a few of which can't play nicely with each other.
Just pick whatever one that fills your fancy, and get to crit rocketing some bitches. ;)
try brbuninstalling.com
I heard it's pretty cool over there.
