A few of our favourite memories of video games at Christmas.
25th December
Hello!
Catch up with the older editions of this column in ourWhat We’ve Been Playing archive.
Lucky so and so.
Happy Christmas, everyone!
Let me know if you have given a present to someone famous.

Can you beat the joy of Zelda at Christmas?
It’s Star Wars, of all things.
Top of the pile?
The less said about that, the better, really.
It wasn’t just that it had a special gold cartridge.
But cor, I really did love that little gold cartridge.
Steam credit just doesn’t have quite the same ring to it, does it?
I never actually owned a Dreamcast, though.
And then we’re going to scour second hand shops for all those iconic titles.
I can finally play the likes of Shenmue and Jet Set Radio.
I can kick his arse at Power Stone.
I’ll have an excuse to play Skies of Arcadia again.
Christmas is all about nostalgia, after all.
Which games should I catch up on?
I still remember ripping the paper off and seeing the iconic purple dragon adorning the case.
It was a pivotal game in my childhood as it was also one of the first ones I finished.
My little mind was blown that Spyro could now do all these things.
Also, this could have easily been my first experience with playing different characters in a games universe.
