I have heard him "sing" which was unfortunate and humorous but I honestly have no idea if he is a good writer/story teller. He seems to be a pompous ass yet he still fascinates me. See, that's him right there as Kirk being me. *points to avatar*
This may show my age but Has Been is a must listen. Ben Folds and Shatner are gods on that album.

Yes, Shatner can't sing, ha ha ha ha.

Has Been is still an amazing album. And once you pay attention to the lyrics and realize the songs are really, really personal, it gets even better. Or sadder.

I agree completely. I'm guessing Ben Folds involvement kept this from being a parody of The Shat's earlier "music".

Can't sing, but he really can do a lot with his voice.

Parody? I mean, when you listen to his, say, Rocket Man, you start by laughing because, Ha! It's Kirk and he's just talking. But that laugh is just at first. His spoken-word presentation of that song actually works. What he's done with other songs works. His vocal patterns are unconventional, but they seem to fit quite well in this context.

I quite like this one:

"What Have You Done" fucking broke me. I can't listen to the song without getting tears in my eyes.

It took me a couple of listens and a few more Google searches to realize that “What Have You Done” is about the horrifying death of Shatner’s third wife, Nerine. She was an alcoholic, her drowning in their pool was ruled an accident. “What Have You Done” recounts finding her body, which left Shatner helpless: “My love was supposed to protect her. It didn’t. My love was supposed to heal her. It didn’t.”

The album came into my life at a very low point for me. It also helped me change a lot about my attitudes in life for the better.

I thought "What have you done?" was Shatner's commentary on Yanni Crappuccino's relentless Poopies bundle bowel releases
 
I thought it was a parody of Linkin Park's "What I've Done" inspired by the fact that Linkin Park's one was made around the time they started to suck.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

So now it's hit or miss monthlies and shitty repeats for the weekly bundles.
Well, I guess they couldn't sustain the two-concurrent-weekly model too long without resorting to these shenanigans.

It would be good if they would at least sprinkle a new one in between the remixes and repeats.

Yea, a new one and just one rerun at a time would be nice. I was actually looking forward to today's reveal and we get this shit. On another hand, they've got to run out of repeats at some point, so hopefully we'll see some better stuff soon.

Uh, well, no, not really. We've seen this arc before. Where it usually ends up is that they figure out that they've run out of stuff they can repeat, the schedule they're currently operating on is unsustainable, and they go back to an intermittent bundle release schedule.

They've literally done this before. But they could always go 180 on us and start doing a Groupees-IG scenario--load up bundles with whatever hot garbage has just come out on Steam or on Greenlight (!) and start churning out the crap bundles by the bucketload.

Who knows?

 
You know, that T-shirt actually looks pretty good. Not $75 good. But if that tier was $20, I might seriously consider buying just for that shirt.

 
Great deal on HB2 for $15 and all those games.

Call of Juarez: Gunslinger
Grow Home
Rayman Origins
Far Cry 3
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell® Blacklist™
Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China
Assassin's Creed Rogue
The Crew

Well poo.  I was too busy refreshing my bundle page to notice there are no Steam keys.  I F5'd to hell and back for nothing.

Is Grow Home worth $1?

I own most of this stuff already - i.e. bolded stuff.

A lot of this is re-bundled.

I'm missing The Crew [base]...

...but one can get The Crew: Wild Run Edition (The Crew base-game + Wild Run expansion) for $10 on Amazon for UPLAY:

I guess I missed-out, as The Crew: Complete (Crew base-game + Season Pass + Wild Run) was $10 on Amazon for UPLAY code, from what I'm reading on Reddit - it's not available right now. :(

I almost canceled my monthly, but forgot, and have ended up playing 12 hours of Rocket League in the last two days.
Speaking of the monthly bundle... Has anyone gotten the new subscriber price on their normal account? (I have till this month. Cancelling and subscribing again isn't working this time.)

I got it without cancelling and subscribing up through last month. This month I didn't get it. That fits the wording on the coupons I had in that the last one without the "new subscribers only" text was used on the May bundle and all I have left have that new wording.

Yeah, this was the first month they didn't give it to me... Its also the first month I won't buy the bundle since they started the coupon.

It's a bit of a hassle, but if you use multiple (new) accounts to buy bundles on, you can sub to the monthly and make use of the new subscriber coupons.

But if you do that.. make sure not to forget to unsubscribe after each month.

What Motoki said. Plus, it's a pain to have the DRM-free downloads in multiple accounts. That's my main issue with doing that, and I know it's probably the same for Motoki.

I wish I could give multiple likes.
