That pinnacle of man, Mr David Hasslehoff has got a critically lauded music album out.

Now read the reviews to find out why it's so good - join this link up:

This is the funniest thing I have read in a long while. Soneone out there had a lot of time on their hands. Read at least 30 reviews and you'll see what I mean...and there are 600 of them! I'm sitting here, giggling to myself like a mentalist as I read some of these.

Oh, BTW, Track 5 "Hot Shot City" is particularly good. LOL!

Brilliant.

Oh, it's still funny, but knowing that the people who did it stole all of my 'roids and battered my galaxy in round 5 of Planetarion takes the edge off a little.

Excellent work. TThe fact that they can think up of so many humourous reviews is a testament to their prowess.

There's also a review there from a gullible Yank who thought they were genuine! He said something like "I don't know what these guy are on about 'cos I bought this album and it was rubbish, really poor. Don't buy it."

How I laughed when I read that. Trust a Yank not to know the difference between truth and irony!

It's an online game where you take control of a planet, build defences and fleets, and attack other planets to steal their resources. It has a user base in the tens of thousands, but used to be much larger.

There is a hardcore group of experienced users/beta tester with a very warped sense of humour who pull random pranks on the internet. People like Kurashima, Sunday8pm, Steve_G ad others are often involved in this stuff.

Apparently, this whole thing is completely attributable to them.

I imagine that there was one genuine review, which said the album was quite good, and that Hot Shot City was "particularly good". Finding this hilarious, the PA hardcore had a laff at the albums expense.

No, the name doesn't ring any bells. I've just searched for it on the web and it looks like some kind of massive trading type game...

"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day, Dingle Horkledork? A day in which an abundance of spandex-clad flesh jiggles waggishly upon the sun-dappled sands of southern California is an image that the terpsichorean vocals which grace this work of genius may well evoke!"
