What will you play on Christmas Day?
Hello, folks - and Merry Christmas (I like to say this the old fashioned way rather than Happy Holidays because I care deeply about Christmas - it's my favorite time of the year, just like my birthday.) I've been lurking at GB and saw a thread about what games will you be playing on Xmas Day - so I thought maybe we should start one here.
You go first! |

Ehm, nothing? I guess I'm one of those "lucky" people with family obligations.

I'll be with my family and besides, by then my pc is likely aready packed, so I will not play anything until at least 28 december...
Then, depending on whether the playthrough is already up and running I'll play Gabriel Knight 1, or if it is not yet up and running I'll play The Shivah.

I was hoping to take a break from computer games on Christmas day. Big lunch, then relax on the sofa infront of the t.v, but there is only the same old rubbish on. So maybe i will complete Culpa Innata after lunch instead, but maybe the X-mass mood will take me, and i will be watching "the great escape" or something

I've already played CQ1 quite a few times at Christmas (Is that really Doug doing the narration???
), so now I usually just play CQ2 and CQ3! I hope to finish A Vampyre Story by this weekend too. The university where I work is closed all next week, so there'll be plenty of time to start a few new games too!

I probably won’t be playing a game this Christmas BUT I do have VERY fond memories of getting The Longest Journey for Christmas when it came out. The family gathered around the game as we watched the wonderful, beautiful images and challenges unfold before our eyes. Magical moments!
Still Life One also comes to mind. Although a gruesome concept, the game was beautiful in many ways and I loved Victoria’s lovely home with the awesome Christmas lights and wintry feel.

If I have any time, I'll be playing New Super Mario Bros Wii (Girlfriend's Christmas present). I think she might be getting me Assassin's Creed 2 as well, but I probably won't have time to start it before the 26th. I also have to play the go to work game, but luckily only for two hours (I'm the ONLY manager who knows how to open the store who can do it, they tell me).
Today, I have all day and a bit of the evening to finish Silent Hill 3. Bring on the scares!

The games in my signature: Assassin's Creed II and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
I've just downloaded the demo for Machinarium to see what it's like and if it'll appeal to me. If it does then I'll purchase it today.
