Friday Night FragFest: July 11, 2008 - Happy Early Bastille Day Edition

So maybe we should bust out of a prison tomorrow night and kill some Locust in order to properly celebrate Bastille Day, which happens to be Monday, July 14th. Hey, that's the same day E3 opens. Next week is always awesome in terms of gaming news. I'm looking forward to all the new videos and footage. Especially of Gears 2.

Regardless, I'm putting the FFF thread up early this week because I have a pretty busy day ahead of me. I'm not sure if I can be there tomorrow night or not. I think I mentioned that I'm going to be traveling a bunch this month and this weekend is one of those weekends. I'm going to Oakland to cheer for my Oakland Athletics against the hated Anaheim Angels.

So you guys will probably need a host this week without me. I'm sure you'll have plenty of volunteers to take over hosting duties. Have fun, Gearheads and I'm hoping to see you next week instead, only I'm also traveling to Austin, Texas that weekend. I'm just not sure if I can play or not since I'm not sure the timeframe. Regardless, sign up below and have a blast.
