Comfort games.

We all have one. It’s a game that we always find ourselves returning to, time and time again. For me, it’s RollerCoaster Tycoon. It doesn’t matter what AAA game is currently launching or already on the market, when I need that “fix”, I always turn to RollerCoaster Tycoon. I’ve beaten the game dozens of times, finished every scenario and completed both expansions.  

My wife has her own comfort games. Always by her side is a DS, 3DS and Wii U. In the DS, New Super Mario Bros. – in the 3DS, Super Mario 3D Land and almost always playing on the Wii U, New Super Mario Bros. U & New Super Luigi U. I’ve literally seen her beat each game from start to finish a dozen times. Weird.

Here’s the part where you, the community at large, tell me;

What’s your comfort game?

 

OK, let’s get to the real reason why we’re here: the GAMES!

Friday Night Fights

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!
