The tree is up, the lights are on, the stockings are over the fireplace and everyone’s getting into the eggnog. It’s Christmas and it’s the best time of year.
Nothing beats Christmas; it’s the time for fun and play, for family and friends. It’s the chance to get away from work and reset the batteries. And, of course, it’s the perfect time to knock off some of those games that you just haven’t been able to get around to.
As is tradition for Digitally Downloaded we’re going to count down the 24 games of Christmas – one a day for each day from December 1 through to December 24. The fun, the silly and the crazy, these games have been custom picked by the DDNet editorial team to give you plenty of ideas for stocking fillers, games to play with family and friends on Christmas Eve, or games you should use the extra time over the holiday to get stuck into.
The 24 Games Of Christmas

OK, so this might not be a game that you show grandma how to play, and you might want to keep little Johnny away from it too… especially if you’ve downloaded certain… costumes.

When people stop laughing at how ridiculously over the top Dead or Alive 5 is and sit down to play they game they quickly come to realise why it’s so popular – beyond the women this is a series which offers remarkably well balanced fighting action.
And there’s DLC Santa costumes out there, so you can’t really say that this isn’t a Christmas game now, can you?
