So, the forums were down for most of this week, which has made planning Friday Night Fights more of a struggle than it usually is. As such, the line-up for this evening is leaning more toward the lighter side.
If you want to hook up with hot local singles to play videogames, you may still do that — comments here or in the now-online forums, blog posts, and carrier pigeons are all acceptable. Just get the word out in a timely fashion, and you’ll be set.

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.

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.
