Haha yes! :D
This week's freebie, Elite Dangerous, is also a (space) trucking game and very much Henke Approved as well.

Give it a play, even - no, especially - if it's something that's outside of your comfort zone. The sights and sounds of this thing are really somehting to experience. Play it in VR, if you can.

Log onto EGS, click that GET button, download THAT SHIT, and be prepared to experience THE FINEST OFFROAD TRUCKING SIMULATION KNOWN TO MAN. Besides Snowrunner which came out earlier this year that is, but even then the crane-mechanics in Mudrunner are still clearly superior to those in Snowrunner. The crane-simulation in Snowrunner was DUMBED DOWN FOR THE CASUALS. But I digress, besides Mudrunner's impeccable simulation, it also offers visuals that will astound AND astonish you. Sure it looks good in screenshots, but to see it in motion, the way trees bend under the weight of your truck, the way smoke billows out of your exhaust, the way the very earth deforms under your mighty tires, it's enough to bring a tear to the eye of even the most hardened trucker. You'll need some truckin-music, I have prepared for you this (

Now go, when we meet again you'll be a changed person, for you will know the weariness and the freedom in the heart of the trucker. To quote from my favourite truckin' song, "All I do is drive" by Johnny Cash,
"I got nothing in common with any man who's home every day by five/All I do is drive, drive, drive".

Cool :) How does that compare to Spintires?
There also seems to be some free DLC available for Mudrunner, make sure to grab those as well!

Yeah the original Spintires has oddly enough started releasing a lot more DLC over the past year or so. But the gameplay improvements made to Mudrunner makes it kinda hard to go back to the original, especially to that clunky camera. Anyway, plenty of very good user made maps available for Mudrunner, so you're not gonna run out of content.

Never heard of it, but apparently it's a fairly new indie game, and it looks kind of interesting!

These are now live.
Next week is a "Mystery Game", so probably something impressive for the holidays.

I would find this week's freebies really impressive too if I didn't already have them in my collection. :) Yeah, looking forward to that mystery game!
