Celebrate Father's Day with Codemasters

If you've got nothing lined up for Father's Day then Codemasters has got you covered...

Apologies to all of you bit-tech.net readers, but there are no excuses anymore for you to forget Father's Day this year, which takes place on June 15th, after this helpful reminder from Codemasters that the dad-worshipping day is coming.

Thankfully though if you still haven't got a present sorted then Codemasters Online is ready to help you by arranging a whole host of Father's Day activities from within the Lord of the Rings Online MMORPG world.

"What better way to celebrate Father’s Day than spend it with your loved ones in the greatest fantasy world ever created?" said David Solari Vice President of Codemasters Online - a man who is apparently in desperate need of an imagination.

"We invite fathers to come and enjoy the festivities that will we be running all day to mark this special occasion.”

Codemasters has pulled out all the stops for this weekends parental celebration and there'll be regular competitions and challenges for paired players, as well as contests, music and fireworks. There'll even be father and son fishing trips taking place for those of you who feel the need to bond but can only do it when pretending to be a seven foot tall Wood Elf.

The celebrations are open to both existing and new players to The Lord of the Rings Online. New players can download the free trial now to take part in the day’s festivities.

Have you got something special planned for Father's Day? Let us know in the forums.

ya mean besides the the excuse that the last time I saw my father was at the funeral of my grandmother in march, and before that was 16 years prior?

O_o

A fishing trip on a virtual game..... How about actual fishing? Or actual contact with real humans? One more reason to detest MMORPG's.

i plan on doing some actual fishing not involving a PC.. but that's nice of them to give people an option [shrugs] to each their own.
