Many folks out there are already dreading Christmas and it’s drain on your pocket. It’s a good drain, it makes people feel good, brings family together, and everybody leaves happy. Except for the weird Uncle that gives everyone socks… Anyway, for these folks, that drain is still a few weeks away. But for us gamers, It’s already started…

ProTips:
- We have a family of mixed interest gamers, keeping everyone happy is tough. Tell you what, though… Gamefly is the sh… stuff!.
- Also, Be careful with your money! You buy too many games, you won’t be able to afford Christmas gifts for everyone else…
If you’d like to keep up with ALL of the games coming out soon, the links below have been a GREAT resource. They’ll even show you those non-hyped games that we should know about… like “PowerUp Heroes”. I would NEVER have heard of this if I didn’t go to IGN’s page…
Imagine Beating the Sh… stuff… out of your friend’s avatars! Hmm, kinda fits…
