The Games of Christmas Past

   0
As I’m sure is the case with most gamers, my favorite Christmas presents over the years have always been video games. In fact, certain Christmases are virtually defined in my mind by the games I received that year. While this year’s festivities are still fresh in mind, I thought I’d run down a few of the greatest gaming Christmases I’ve had.

1996
Games received:


Games as Christmas gifts were few and far between in the last few years, which made this present all the more awesome. I know it’s been getting really mixed reviews across the gaming world, but I have fallen in love with Climax’s pacifist take on nightmarish horror. The fact that every time Silent Hill shifts to a dead ice world it brings back haunting memories of last February makes the game even scarier.

So that’s my Christmas gaming memories, folks. What about it, any of you have gaming-related holiday stories to share?

My favorite Halloween costume ever. Circa 1990.

My name is Dylan. I spend a disproportionate amount of my time playing, writing about, and talking about games. I've been obsessed with games since I was a lad, and selling them has been my job for going on six years now. I write for GameZone and GameCinemaHD. I've never been involved in a gaming web community before, but the power of Destructoid compelled me.


Much more recently.
