Games with an Xmas feel

[Jimmy Yakapucci]

There are 2 games for the CDi that weren't released in the US. They are Christmas Country and Christmas Crisis. Also for the GBA, they released Elf Bowling.

Since Xmas is fast approaching us, I wondering about games that give off a Xmassy vibe. I can think of the following games:

James Pond 2: Robocod
Shenmue 1
Xmas Nights

All these had a great Xmas feel to them. You also had games like Animal Crossing, Phantasy Star Online and Sonic Adventure where there was some Xmas content for it.

Can you guys think of some more?

I absolutely agree with Shenmue 1 and Christmas Nights.
However, the original Nights is very nice to play at Christmas, too. Since I used to play Shenmue 1 at christmas, I also enjoy playing Shenmue 2 at christmas. There is no need for special christmas setting being present in the game itself, it's just that some games have a special atmosphere that fits best when played at christmas.

Oh yeah, I'm already looking forward to that, but I'm not yet sure whether I'll play Shenmue 1 or 2...

I guess your right about that. Some games just have a certain something about them.

Speaking of Shenmue, I just tried out the new release of that DC emu NullDC and Shenmue still looks amazing.

Christmas NiGHTS is possibly the best demo ever made. It could stand alone as its own game. I bought my copy off ebay this summer, and I look forward to playing it Christmas time. Perhaps I'll make a tradition of it, playing Xmas NiGHTS every Christmas.
