2003 Videogame Holiday Gift Guide
Tim Grube writes "Gaming Horizon is currently
hosting a feature that informs gamers on what to buy this holiday season. The
2003 Holiday Gift
Guide presents twenty-five titles per console including the Microsoft Xbox,
Sony Playstation 2, Nintendo GameCube, PC, and HandHelds."
Also, same thing for Tony Hawk: Underground. Does anyone know if anything has changed other than the small bits mentioned in the blurb?
I've done a little research into Silent Hill 3 and I have to say that it looks like it's going to be a great game. It actually looks like it might have some of the best game-mode graphics I've seen on the PS2 yet.
The guitars sound good, now give me about 10db more on the cow bell.
In the spirit of the season you should send links to Jesus Dressup out to your loved ones. It's free[1] and really makes one appreciate the holiday spirit.. or something like that.

These games are great and everything, but before you get any of them for me based on this advice, I would like to call your attention to the fact that I lost my job on Monday.
Therefore, here is my list:
A manual labor job at the North Pole, which probably has better weather and better working conditions than my last workplace
And one XBox so I can play Fable.
Thank you Santa!
... in Christmas 2056.
I hear it comes with bundled Arthritis cream, for we'll all have old-man joints by the time it finally comes out.
Erm... "Final Fantasy 13" doesn't exist (they've announced 12 and released 11). "Super Smash Brothers" is a relatively old N64 game - sure you don't mean Smash Bros. Melee, the 'Cube incarnation? And Project Gotham Racing is only up to installment number 2, not 4. If you do work for an electronics distributor, you *really* need to get your act together.
