Talking Silly Holiday Gaming Stuff

A lot of magazines and other news sources are suddenly very interested in video games now that the holiday season is upon us. Most of the info they give out is wrong, bias, or all around stupid. I heard one guy on the KDKA news up here talking about how Nintendo has dominated the market for years but has some "new competition" this year... ?????

Anyway, this is your thread to discuss holiday silliness in all it's forms, from horrible shopping experiances to your Chistmas list. This can be from any year, any time. To start off, I submit Entertainment Weekly's "Top ten games for Christmas" list:

1. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (A good choice)
2. Eternal Darkness (Good pick, but arguably top ten)
3. Warcraft 3 (Dunno, don't play PC)
4. Splinter Cell (Hells yeah)
5. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (With the movie, I guess)
6. Spider-Man (No way in hell)
7. Madden 2003 (I guess, not my thing)
8. Star Wars: Jedi Knight 2 (Another movie one, hmmm)
9. Medal of Honor: Front Line (Nope, not top ten)
10. Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4 (Tired, but damn good)

All in all I guess that list is OK, but where the hell is Metroid?? And Spider-Man? Come on! They obviously think Popular Movie =Popular Game.
