Ho-ho-ho'ing our way through the holidays!
Another day, another chance for games. But before that, we need a
carol. Okay, perhaps 'need' is a bit excessive, but we're getting one
anyway. This one will be sung by the beavants; don't they look all
fancy in their fancy dresses that are definitely not my old dressing
gowns gussied up with a Bedazzler? Let's all give a warm welcome to
them as they sing us a song:
[to the tune of "Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer"]
You read Reddit and ArsTech and GameSpot and Twitchen
You read Steamgroups and GameFaqs and IGN Forums
But do you recall
The gaming bulletin board before them all?
See Es Eye Pee Gee Action
Is a the very best games board
And if you've ever read it
You would know why its adored
All of the other game forums
They're pretty much the same
But See Es Eye Pee Gee Action
is the best place to talk 'bout games
We don't have no emojis
Or binaries at all
We are just plain old ASCII
So come and heed the call!
Then you'll see why we love it
And you'll shout out with glee
See Es Eye Pee Gee Action
You'll never fade into history!
Oh, that was beautiful. Why, my ears are barely even bleeding this
time. What could be more holiday-like than that? Now to what you're
really here for: the games.
- Baldurs Gate II Enhanced Edition https://www.gog.com/en/game/baldurs_gate_2_enhanced_edition
If you've been paying attention, then this game's arrival NVVT6
here won't surprise you. I know Ant has been looking forward
to this one. Anyway, I don't really need say anything about BC7478A
the game itself; it's pretty famous and you all know what it
is about. Actually, at this point I'm mostly just padding out
the text so I have space to obfuscate the key. Is that enough
yet, do you think? Maybe just a bit more; yeah, that should 87903A
be good enough. Enjoy the game! Remember, this one is on GOG.COM *
This looks like the first one which I didn't like. I will pass. I am
more of a Diablo type of guy!
- Arcade Spirits
https://store.steampowered.com/app/910630/Arcade_Spirits/
The balance must be maintained; for every good game I must
present one that is... less welcome, let's say. Although I LZXNX
think that's selling "Arcade Spirits" a bit short. It's not
so much a BAD game as it is a niche title; it's a dating-MM8PQ
sim/visual novel, and I suspect that there are very few in
this newsgroup who find that genre entertaining. This one
tries to recapture the spirit of the arcades in the
80s, if that makes it any more appealing. No? I didn't EJZ3W
think so. Well, I tried. This is a STEAM game.
Novel? Nah, pass. I hate reading and romance. :P
We inch closer to the Big Day**... but we're not there yet. Many more
games to come, many more carols to torment you with. Isn't it an
exciting time to be alive! See you all tomorrow!
Ho-ho-ho!
* if you weren't fast enough to snag the key, visit the CSIPGA Steam
group where Jab is giving away another copy of this game, and many
others. https://steamcommunity.com/groups/CSPIGA
Oooh. Lots of games for me to claim! ;)

LOL.
