Game with the Dtoid community
Happy Friday!
I almost can’t believe that it’s actually here. Bayonetta 2, a game that nobody thought we’d ever see, has officially launched here in the states for the Wii U. After playing through the demo almost a dozen times, my excitement for the final product is at an all-time high.
The original Bayonetta was an absolute treat, and action fans dream game. Tight controls, over the top and non-stop action, and a main character with more style than should be legally allowed. The only downside for me, is that I won’t be able to actually play it until later tonight. Thanks a lot, adulthood and responsibilities.
Since it’s almost Halloween, some Dtoiders decided to get together and watch a scary movie, you can check out all the details below (Friday Night Frights) – this is the main reason why the FNF post this week is going up earlier than usual, I didn’t want to miss this awesome little event! After all, it’s this amazing community that keeps me coming back day after day, week after week.
Anyway, let’s get to the reason why you came here in the first place, the games…
New to FNF? Read this! Each week, a bunch of us Dtoiders get together to play videogames online! It’s a 100% community-run event, so feel free to join in or even host something yourself!
The planning for FNF starts in the forums, where community members sign up to host matches and post their pertinent details (game, time, Gamertag, etc.). Then, every Friday, reminder posts go up in the community blogs thanks to a dedicated group of volunteers, and I recap it all here on the front page to give it a bit more exposure.
To join in, simply send a friend request to the match host! If you’d rather host something yourself, sound off in the comments section below!
