Hey-di-hey-di-ho!

Today, we start with a song!

Folks, here's the story 'bout Spalls the Gamer
He was a red-hot computer tamer
He posted 'lots on c.s.p.i.g.a.
And he had a lot of games to give away!

Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi
Whoa-a-a-a-ah 
Hee-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee 
He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y

He messed around with the Humble Bundle
Should have known it would lead to a tumble
It took him down to gaming town
He spent his time shooting newbs to the ground

Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi
Whoa-a-a-a-ah 
Hee-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee 
He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y

He had a dream about an active neswgroup
He gave it games that it was needin'
He gave 'em a Christmas full of games
>From "Tomb Raider" to "Life is Strange"

Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi
Ho-dee-ho-dee-ho-dee 
Skip-de-diddly-skip-de-diddly-diddly-oh
Bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-oh 

He gave 'em all his many excess games
And just ignored all the trolls and flames
He had a Steam library with a thousand titles
Most of them never played and idle

Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi
Whoa-a-a-a-ah 
He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y
Whoa-a-a-a-ah

Poor Spalls, poor Spalls, poor Spalls....

Yeah You think that's bad? Imagine having to listen to me actually
SING it. You got off lucky ;-)

Today's game is:

Gas Guzzlers Extreme
---------------------------
Gamers like driving cars fast. Gamers like guns. What - and stay with
me now, this might get complicated - if we somehow put these things
together? Well, voila! Gas Guzzlers Extreme. A fast-paced, good
looking combat racer, with 40 tracks, 12 weapons and 18 cars.
Tongue-in-cheek in tone and serious in gameplay, it's a fast and fun
way to spend a few hours blasting away at friends and then zooming
past the flaming wreckage of their destroyed cars.

Platform: Windows PC
Distributor: Steam
