Thriftbot: No Cake Jokes


Today Harmonix is proving to the world that there's more to April Fools than tricking people into clicking links to an 80's music video of a man that looks like Parker Lewis dancing around in a prison issue denim outfit. Any Rock Band owner playing on a sufficiently modern console (sorry PS2) has a free song waiting for them to download. Not just any song, mind you, but a song that launched a million cake jokes and made Portal the over-referenced Napoleon Dynamite of the videogame world - "Still Alive".

Maybe the song isn't quite as suited for Rock Band as some but do you really care?

If you're looking to download some other songs this week, you're out of luck because that's all she wrote. Why no other songs? Maybe Harmonix is running out of steam. Hahahahah, see what I did there? Because Steam is the name of Valve's game downloading servi- Nevermind, just go download the song.
