GameFAQs contest ends in surprise victory

Over the past ten years (2000-2009 to be clear), thousands upon thousands of games have been released. Some great, some terrible, most somewhere in between. Many new systems have launched, old systems have faded, sales records have been broken, and more and more people have gotten into gaming. As difficult as it could be to choose just one game out of the thousands released across over a dozen systems, GameFAQs hosted a user vote-off contest to do just that. Despite the fact that the Nintendo 64 sold a quarter of its rival, it's home to the game that users voted Game of the Decade: The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.

Have no fear! There are a few alternatives out there... at least for the people with major consoles, there is.

So, you made it this far through the holiday season. But wait! You forgot about your new brother-in-law! He's not going to be happy with some tulip-covered picture frame of you and your sister hanging out from when you were both in elementary school, right?

It's no surprise my list is populated with licensed titles.

My “Don't Gift!” list consists only of titles I've personally played this year, but more to the point, they're games that might just appeal to Christmas shoppers at first glance. In truth, most of the games I mention do have an audience who would enjoy them, but I believe the games don't have the universal appeal that would make them a great gift for most. Most of the games I chose are licensed titles, based on graphic novels, movies, famous characters, and even theme park rides for good reason: These are often the games of disputable quality where other games are unquestionably better.

The PixlBit staff has put together the go-to game guide for all holiday shoppers, gamers or not.

2010 has seen a wide variety of great titles released all throughout the year. There's no doubt that any shopper, familiar with games or not, could get confused by the selection alone. That's why we here at PixlBit have done our best to make it easy for you. We've picked out the best from 2010 (and just a couple from 2009) to help you figure out how to stuff a gamer's stockings.

After Dark

I decided I'd finally attend one of those various midnight openings to see how well received Kinect was at various retailers opening to sell the device at Midnight. Since the device is a bit different than what's out there for video games, I figured it would be interesting to get a good view of the crowds and to see if anything special was going down for the launch.
