Video Game Christmas

A Poem by Richard Rex LaBrache

A grand golden ball
A dozen trees, no less.
All covered in powerups
Another Video Game Christmas!

An emerald Santa, Luigi
Passing gifts to the Toads,
While Mario and Peach
Are standing under mistletoe.

Tails flies to and fro
'cross the room with egg nog.
Stay out of the kitchen,
Sonic's found chili dogs.

Isaac Clarke makes peace
With his foe Necromorphs,
And the kingdom of Hyrule
Forgives Ganondorf.

Doom Guy and Gordon
And John one one seven
And Samus and Maya
Even the savior from Vault one eleven

The ultimate LAN party!
Deathmatch was the game,
To find the biggest badass.
You already know the winner's name!

No matter your console,
your genre, your might:
Merry Christmas to all!
And to all a good FIGHT!



Okay let's all pretend this never happened, this poem is embarrassing. But it pulled you in right!? Or perhaps you're here for the gift exchange? Well let's get to it then! Next week, the big Steam Winter Sale we've all been waiting for begins! So what better way to get in the holiday spirit than to share some amazingly priced games with your fellow gamers!?

Anyone on the forum may sign up, but you must have a Steam account. Find your profile page in your preferred browser, can be found at http://steamcommunity.com/ Then you should be able to access your wishlist from there. Post a link to this wishlist page with your post acknowledging interest in participation. You must be in the exchange BEFORE the end of the first day of the Steam Winter Sale, currently projected to begin on December 22nd, 2015.

We set up a dummy account, http://steamcommunity.com/id/luigisanta/ which all participants should friend. You will be contacted through Steam with your gift recipient's user name. Before midnight on Christmas Day, your selected gift must be sent as a gift to Luigi Santa, from there we can regift it anonymously to the appropriate user, preserving the illusion of Secret Santa. This also means that if for any reason someone in the event disappears, the gift that would have gone to them can be sent to their assigned recipient instead.

Gifts should be taken from the recipient's wishlist, although this is not required if you know a game you believe they will enjoy. You are also not limited to just one gift per individual, but the total must not exceed $15, and is preferred to be kept within $10.

No matter your observed holiday this season, we wish you all the best, and hope you get whatever games your heart desires~

Sounds like fun, I'm in :)

(I know mine looks really long and ridiculous, 205 and counting, lol. But I just re-organized it for holiday shenanigans! In an effort to make it easier to peruse, there's a variety of lower-priced things in my top 50.

Obviously anything on there would be super appreciated! But I tried to put "important" things that are bound to be like $15 or less during the sale in the first 50, so that's what I'm asking friends/family to go by.)

This sounds like a very cool idea! I'm in! http://steamcommunity.com/id/Saragraph/wishlist/

If you end up getting me, don't pay too much attention on the ranks. Only my top three are ranked and really my top three. Outside of that it's all pretty much the same.
What if you could rid the world of war? What if hatred could be conquered?
Whose side will you choose? Which path would you take?

Thank you SOOOOOO much to my Secret Santa! THREE GAMES!

That's just amazing. Undertale, KOTOR2, and Witcher 2. I don't currently know who you are, but your generosity is very humbling. Thank you.

I don't really know who sent them to me but I'd really like to thank them. I wasn't really expecting much and it made me really happy to see I got Shovel Knight and The Stanley Parable. Thank you very very much, who ever you are. ><

A word to all, it's up to you if you want to reveal who you are secret santa to.

That said, I received a copy of Shovel Knight, one of the top games I wanted! I'm about as excited as I was to be playing Undertale :3

I got Shoppe Keep and Killer is Dead. I'd really like to thank my Secret Santa, because they were two things that I've really wanted for awhile but I probably never would have bought for myself, lol. And Shoppe Keep seems like it'll be a cute break from my Dragon Age: Inquisition "marathon." Thank you, thank you <3

I don't really know who sent them to me but I'd really like to thank them. I wasn't really expecting much and it made me really happy to see I got Shovel Knight and The Stanley Parable. Thank you very very much, who ever you are. ><
o/ That was me! I'm glad to hear you're so excited, I sincerely hope you enjoy them. :) (and that you're better at Shovel Knight than I am, lol)

Merry Chrimbus! :3

A big, big thank you to my Secret Santa! I got The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky, a game that I also wanted for some time now but that I never would've bought for myself. There is actually a tiny bit of story behind this game and why it's on my wishlist, so this was a very nice surprise. Also, I was Secret Santa to Dustmop! Glad to hear you liked them ^^

The Half-Life expansions are some of my favorites, so I couldn't resist getting them for you :3 I reccommend you check out Blue Shift Unlocked. The original is built in a separate version of the Half-Life engine that was designed for the Dreamcast. The mod I mentioned extracts and converts the game to run as a Half-Life mod.

Got Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth3 V Generation, which I'll maybe get around to playing one day. I should probably start finishing the first one soon, but I'm certainly happy with having this for when that happens.

Anyway, I had Wiicked.
Thank you very much! I received Undertale (which I'll be streaming in a little bit) and Saints Row IV: Game of the Century Edition.
