Wednesday, November 1, 2006 I was looking for the famous South Park episode, when I came across this Dragostea din Tei rendition: Ingenious.
ClanBase brings the news that the one and only Phil Collins (still hugely popular in Chile) will be starring in the upcoming Grand Theft Auto game as a means of unleashing his genius upon a younger generation.

Ireland’s most experienced gaming clan, Clan FH, are now playing Warsow. The clan has been going since August 2000 and has played hundreds of official matches.
