Summer has officially started! For many gamers that means a break from school and time to concentrate on your favorite game. Although I’m done with school, I still get excited for these upcoming months. Not only is it gorgeous outside, summer means that Evo and PAX are just around the corner! Time to get serious about my Marvel vs Capcom 3 skills!
Speaking of fighting games, our Robot jefe Niero sat down with the guys of The Gamer Studio to talk about or newly launched Fight.destructoid.com. In this interview, he lays out the genesis of our partnership with Playhem and what we have in store. So definitely check out the interview and check out Fight.destructoid.com! We have some things to announce soon!
As usual, the Destructoid community gathers together on Friday to play the latest Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC games together. Check below for a list of community hosts and the games they are playing.
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.
