Ah, the holidays. In these modern times theyâre synonymous with over-indulging on alcohol to drown out GamGamâs spicy takes on President Biden and vaccines, but back in the day they were all fuzzy pajamas and shiny wrapping paper.
Oh and gifts, usually video game gifts, as weâre all long-time gamers here. Even back in the day video game consoles and accessories were high-ticket items, the kinds of presents youâd only expect to get from Santa or a well-off uncle. So this time of year whips up memories of ripping away the paper to discover a gorgeous gaming gift underneath.
So, we unpacked all of our holiday trauma, took a healthy swig of our âgetting through the holidaysâ juice, and mustered up some precious memories of the best gaming gifts weâve ever gotten here at Kotaku. Nostalgia, innit?
