So we're having a No Apparent Reason Party tomorrow night. Wanna come?
It's hard to believe that Destructoid's Miami NARP begins in less than 24 hours. Time flies when you're passing out two thousand flyers, illegally taping posters to Taco Bell drive-thrus, and juggling the logistics of a little hometown gaming event. I'm so happy! I'm so scared! Special huge and perverse thanks to our headline sponsor Goozex for making all possible. We'd be at home naked on the sofa playing Left 4 Dead otherwise. Not that it's a bad thing either, but it's better to be naked together.
Gamertag Radio will be hosting a special edition of their podcast and also scheduled to make a special announcement at midnight (tease tease), SFX-360 and GameWars will be hosting the $200 2v2 Gears of War 2 and $200 Halo 3 tournaments ($10 per team), and Destructoid and AGA will be presenting the $100 Super Smash Bros. Brawl tournament (free), and everything will be streamed live (barring internet issues) here and on R3Y's Gameday. Check out the video above from the last South Florida event as you may recognize some faces from the Dtoid community.
Random prizes will also be awarded for unnatural prowess displayed in Left 4 Dead, Street Fighter II, Rock Band 2, and whatever we put on my Dreamcast at the last minute, plus random door prizes for early birds. You have to utterly suck at gaming and punctuality to leave empty-handed, lest you pick up some swag from Epic Sugarworks. We're also pleased to formally announce a live performance by Guitar Atomik at 11pm. Don't wear panties, ladies. It's gonna rock!
The final schedule of events follows after the jump. Hope you can make it!
The event is held at 11200 S.W. 8th Street inside Florida International University's Gracie's Grill. Just head to the main building where the restaurants are, then just walk towards the shrieking noises. If you see a guy with a pink wig and bathrobe or some other dude in a robot helmet, you've arrived, my friend.
Also, I came.
