Ho-ho-ho!

I feel we need more singing in this channel. Do you feel the same way?
No? Tough; you're getting another song. The Beavants are all dressed
up and ready to croon. Take it away, you weird ant-beaver hybrid
monstrosities!

This one is called "Justisaur's Carol", 'cause our very own Justisaur
wrote it!

        In the heart of the Jurassic, where tales unfold,
        Lived a justice dinosaur, wise and bold.
        Dressed in robes of fairness, with a gavel in hand,
        A creature of virtue, protecting the land.

        One snowy Christmas morning, a surprise in store,
        A gift from Spalls, a tower defense to explore.
        The justice dino's eyes lit up with glee,
        For a game of strategy, as festive as can be.

        With a Santa hat perched on his scaly head,
        He roared with delight, ready to be led.
        To a world of pixels, a battleground so grand,
        He'd thwart lurking bots with a masterful hand.

        The lurkerbots crept, in the virtual night,
        But the dino was vigilant, his senses in flight.
        He placed towers with wisdom, a strategic might,
        Defending the pixels, protecting what's right.

        Spalls' gift was a joy, a holiday cheer,
        As the justice dino smiled from ear to ear.
        The towers stood strong, a fortress so true,
        Against the lurking bots, justice would ensue.

        With each level conquered, the dino's heart swelled,
        His tail wagging proudly, in victory compelled.
        For in the world of gaming, as in life's grand scheme,
        Justice prevails, even in a pixelated dream.

        So, let's celebrate the season, with joy and with might,
        With justice and gaming, in the holiday light.
        For the justice dinosaur, a hero so grand,
        Wishes you a Merry Christmas across the land!


(I like this song 'cause it mentions me specifically ;-)

Back to the free games!


* STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl
https://store.steampowered.com/app/4500/STALKER_Shadow_of_Chernobyl/   
     I was worried about giving away this game, because I thought
     I'd offered too often in past Holiday Give-aways. It turnsXLELE
     out, this is the first year STALKER is making its debut! (I
     was thinking about the ARMA games). Obviously, these games
     are here in honor of STALKER 2, recently released, but WN9CW
     the original is still well-worth playing, especially with
     some of the great mods available to update its visuals. If
     you've never played STALKER, you really need to. It's not
     a perfect game, but it's still a lot of fun. And it'll get
     you in the mood to play STALKER 2!AIRTP

* STALKER: Clear Sky
https://store.steampowered.com/app/20510/STALKER_Clear_Sky/    
     "Clear Sky" --the first stand-alone expansion to the 2KHRC
     STALKER games-- never got quite the love as its older
     brother, but I think that was largely because expectations
     were too high; people wanted STALKER 2, with distinct BV8C4
     improvements, and "Clear Sky" is just 'more of the same'.
     But other than being a bit short, I honestly think it's
     as good as the original; better in some ways. I feel it LV90Q
     had better atmosphere and pacing, for instance. It's a
     fun addition to the franchise. Give it a try!

Got it!


* STALKER: Call of Pripyat
https://store.steampowered.com/app/41700/STALKER_Call_of_Pripyat/
     You'd expect that after giving away "Shadow of Chernobyl"
     and "Clear Sky", I'd also be tossing the third game, "Call
     of Pripyat", at you too. But no; although I had a key, I TH1SK
     kept it for myself because I didn't own it on Steam yet (I
     just had it on the original CD-ROM). So this entry pretty
     much exists just to tease you... and to see how many of 4YWON
     you actually /read/ any of my nonsense, rather than just
     grabbing the keys and skedaddling away with a free game.TW0RK
     Gotcha!

"The product code you've entered is not valid or is not a product code. Please double check to see if you've mistyped your key. I, L, and 1 can look alike, as can V and Y, and 0 and O..." I double checked my copy and paste. :/
