The Ghosts of Christmas Games Past
December 23rd, 2009 by Benj Edwards
Last Sunday, PC World published my last slideshow of the year, The Ghosts of Christmas Games Past. It examines twelve retro Christmas video/computer games from the dawn of time right up to ten years before the present.
Sorry I didn’t tell you guys about the article earlier this week; it slipped past me and I didn’t know it was up yet.
Once again, Merry Christmas!

just a minor correction but epic games first major claim to fame was unreal and the unreal engine one of the first major competitors to quake
gears of war came much later
