there are literally no games out for xmas

[sid]

the actual state of the world....

 

god of war, cod, that's it

 

where's all the games at ? worse xmas ever. 

 

[Calashnikov]

Get Atari 50. That’s what I’m getting. Gonna feel like an actual childhood Christmas from the 80s 🥰

[thesnwmn]

Shut up. There's more games than anyone could possibly play in a lifetime released this year alone. Get over the new and shiny and just play something.

[Mr Majestyk]

So over this festive season (and beyond) I've got

 

God Of War

WRC Generations

Sonic Frontiers

Evil West

Atari 50

Goat Sim 3

Bayonetta 3

 

and of course if you're on a budget Vampire Survivors is digital crack.

[Calashnikov]

Pokemens out again too, as standard.

[MattyP]

Plenty to play... think finally we are getting rid of the winter crunch for games now with releases more evenly spread throughout the year.  Although it could also be we are on the tail end of the pandemic and things have slowed down. Its for the better IMHO. Always found too many releases coming this time of year anyway...  

 

Goes back to Atari 50... all I need right there for a while... 

[Mike1812]

Luckily, I've got about 6 years of Xbox games to catch up on. 

[stir fry]

Bayonetta 3 already came out and surpassed my personal expectations, so Christmas is already sorted

Buy Persona 5 Royal in the Black Friday sales (or play it on Game Pass.) You won't need anything else for ages.

This, especially since smooth, good looking, modern games have been coming out for so long now, so even preferring new stuff to old isn’t an issue now. There’s so much stuff to play.

[Mr Do 71]

The Callisto Protocol.

[Strafe]

This has to be bait.

[Mike1812]

I've got all of gamepass to play but I'll probably still just play Fortnite. 

[sid]

Normally there’s a shit tonne though at Xmas , but there’s nothing. 
 

I mean there’s stuff to play but I expect game or whatever will struggle at retail. There’s no presents to buy your average Xbox or ps5 owning niece or nephew !

Sports Story.

They all want Fortnite Bucks now, GRANDAD!

[NecroMorrius]

Darktide might be playable by Christmas 

[Thor]

I'm hoping for Sonic Frontiers to get cheaper for xmas on PSN. Quite fancy that over the break.

I think this has been an issue for retail for a long while TBH. Digital currency is the way forward... 

[cassidy]

Midnight sons is looking like my Xmas game this year.

I’ve asked Santa for Sonic Frontiers 😄, wouldn’t it be cool if they drooped a Sonic Christmas Frontiers update, I miss the old days (and old Sega) 😢

That would be lovely!

[Timmo]

I think the Witcher 3 update is worth a mention, it looks to be pretty substantial.

They're all already out though. What about games for Christmas?

[moosegrinder]

Ban request: abhorrent use of 'literally'

[deKay]

Christmas games:

 

Callisto Protocol

Midnight Suns

NFS Unbound

WRC Generations

House of the Dead Remake

My Universe: My Baby Dragon (Hype!)

 

EDIT and:

Crisis Core FFVII Reunion

Warhammer 40000 Shootas Blood and Teef

Dragon Quest Treasures

Inscryption

Hello Neighbour 2

[Gotters]

isn't the usual thread around this time of year asking why publishers are all such idiots sending their games out to die against CoD & FIFA and having to bargain bin them before xmas.

 

it's almost like they're learning. 

[Lorfarius]

Black friday sales all over including Steam at the moment. I've picked up 6 games today to play over the holiday so def plenty out there! Best has to be that Turtles Cowabunga collection as it was only £15 from CD keys.

Two games is zero games if you're rounding to the nearest five!
