    Default Christmas Theme Video Game?

    Not sure where to put but what are some good Christmas themed Christmas games for any system besides Christmas Nights that should be easy to buy? Thanks.

    Nightmare before Christmas for Xbox.

    http://www.amazon.com/Nightmare-Befo...3244087&sr=1-3

    There's also a PS2 version but they go for a lot more.

    Bust-A-Move 2 for Saturn gets a Christmas theme when the internal system clock reaches December. It's just the intro though, IIRC.

    There's also:

    Disney's a Christmas Carol (DS)
    Dr. Seuss: How the Grinch Stole Christmas (DS)
    Just Sing! Christmas Songs (DSiware)
    Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Pumpkin King (GBA)

    I remember back in the day when everyone was creating crappy home brews and put them up on downloads.com for trial editions and such. I remember there being a wolfenstien 3D ripoff done in the theme of the Nutcracker

    You could try The Grinch for Dreamcast or Playstation. I've never played it though so I can't say how good it is. You can get it for Dreamcast on Amazon for under $6

    Shareware in the 1990s had a bunch of "Christmas levels" or Christmas versions a la Christmas Lemmings. Looks like some people have extended the tradition:

    Kotaku has a list of a few of them here:
    http://kotaku.com/5715930/what-ever-...mas-video-game

    I'll bet the recent wave of indie goodness on PC has unleashed quite a few quality Christmas games or DLC upon the world - I would have to dig a bit more to find it, though.

    There's Daze Before Christmas for the Genesis, but it was only released in Australia.

    The DS and Wii have both gotten a game based off of the claymation Santa Claus and a separate Rudolf one.

    The only SNES game I'm aware of that has anything Christmas-Related in it is Daze Before Christmas and it's an R10, so good luck with that.

    Do you happen to know the titles? Good or bad?

    Wii- Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer. The game is not very good imo. Too short for even little kids.
