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.
What better way to celebrate Christmas than by partnering with a buddy to slam a sword into the face of Great Jaggi?
Monster Hunter 3 is by no means a new game now, but the core gameplay is so solid that it hardly matters, and because it’s such a deep game it’s the kind of title that you’ll start playing at 8 PM, and then the next thing you’ll notice is that the sun is coming up.
It’s a game that’s best enjoyed in teams online, so it’s just as well that around Christmas time there are a lot of people out there with spare time. Hit up your MiiVerse buddy list and get slaying! …Just make sure you don’t accidently miss Christmas entirely.
