Merry Christmas One And All

Written by John Walker on December 25, 2007.

Merry greetings of the season to you, kindly RPS faithful.

I can’t help but note that in between belting out carols and wolfing roast, you’re sat at your computer ignoring the dreadful people you’re forced to spend the entire day with.

So what are you playing to celebrate the birth of the baby Santa?

EG Top 50 Madness Mayhem Spectacular

Written by John Walker on December 24, 2007.

While it seems almost impossible that you might need another Christmas run-down, the handsome chaps at Eurogamer have shamelessly copied our idea by starting their annual (oh, wait) Top 50 countdown.

“So, as we often point out, the EG Top 50 is not definitive. Top 50 lists never will be unless they fairly reflect what everyone who plays games thinks, and even then they will be open to criticism because not everyone has played everything. The point of ours is to show you how we approached, digested and now view 2007 collectively. And so we can argue with Alec Meer about how much he likes Peggle.”

It just so happens that you might find witty, incisive comments from us chaps popping up throughout, and if that’s not an incentive to look, then it’s like I don’t even know you. The list continues, 10 games a day, for the rest of the week. So stay tuned, between stuffing yourself with stuffing.

Merry Thankmas, Gametrailers

Did they get a choir to sing it, or is it magical digital music? I’m too inept to know. What matters is that they bothered.
