Games for Christmas

Christmas is my favorite Holiday Season of the year and there certainly are several great Christmas video game titles for our favorite retro systems!  Here are some of my favorites:

In my mind there will only ever be one Xmas game that you need  . . . . . . .

That looks pretty awesome!

Sega also put a Christmas theme into Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast.
On Christmas day, or if you changed the date on the system to Dec.25th, you would get a tree and decorations in the one area. Loved the little touches Sega put into their games.

Christmas Nights really is the business.....the music is spectacular. Yes - of course - it's just a redux of Jingle Bells but it is so well done and for some reason reminds me of Christmas as a child.

A work of genius.

One of the best Christmas games out there, the ultra rare Daze Before Christmas for the Sega Mega Drive:

It's not terribly retro - not for a console anyway - but I've made three Christmas games (for PC & Mac)...but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

They are pretty cool! I had never heard of The Snowman so I just looked up the ZX Spectrum version:

I have to say that this looks like a really cool game, I will need to try it out on emulation some time!
