Today is a very important day in gaming, but not so much in terms of releases, announcements or crazy events. It's important because most all of us have some great memories from the videogames/systems we've received on Christmas Day.

So pull yourselves away from those oh so important acquaintances you call "families" and take a minute to share your favorite Christmas (or any other winter holiday) gaming moments.

And by the way - I completely realize this is blatant, unapologetic sentimentalism, but it has two things going for it. First, Hallmark makes no money off of these tearful moments, which when paired with cockroach birth, are the only two moments the company isn't profiting from. And second, you know you love it...you festive cynics you. Mark Wilson
