Having just beat “The Secret Armory of General Knoxx” last night, I can safely say the third time was definitely the charm as far as add-ons for Borderlands go. The difficulty has been ramped up considerably this time, so any of you loners in the audience might want to think twice about traveling alone.
Otherwise, like me, you will lose the vast amount of hard cash you’ve saved up from your exploits across Pandora. Having more money in my wallet than Borderlands can display quickly dwindle down to an embarrassingly low rate was not a pleasant sight.
Worse yet, a matter of moments after my Soldier became blatantly poor, the nearby shop had a badass limited edition sniper rifle for the low price of $9,999,999. FFFFFFUUUUU!
New to FNF? Read this: Each week, a bunch of Destructoid readers and usually an editor or two get together to play some videogames online. Basically, this is what Friday Night Fights are all about.
The planning for FNF takes place in the forums, where community members 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 to look forward to between 4:30 – 5:30 PM EST.
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 me” message will be fine.
The names on the left are our Destructoid handles, while the ones on the right are our online handles (PSN IDs, for example). Don’t see a game you want to play? Feel free to post a comment offering to take up hosting duties yourself.
