Top Games to Buy This Christmas

Christmas is getting ever closer and the Christmas decorations are starting to be put up. Although Christmas is a fun time and most people enjoy it, there is one bit of the holiday season that everyone hates, the shopping.

The worst thing is shopping for kids, you need to buy the right things otherwise they won’t use it, especially when it comes to video games. To give you a push in the right direction, here are some of the top games to buy this Christmas.

Band Hero

The latest game from the makers of the Guitar Hero series, Band Hero brings the entire family together. If you’re after a family Christmas and you don’t mind a bit of noise, Band Hero is the perfect gift to buy. Even though the price of the drums, guitar and mic is high, they will work on all the other music games, meaning you only have to buy them once.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

You can’t really go wrong with the biggest game of the year. Perfect for any first person shooter fans, Modern Warfare 2 is the most popular game to play. The game has a fantastic story line, despite is being quite short, it does compensate with one of the best multiplayer modes on any console. With a game this good, it’s pretty hard to go wrong.

DJ Hero

Another music game now, DJ Hero is another game from the makers of Guitar Hero. This time however, you put down the guitar for some DJ decks. The only problem with the game is that the DJ Deck controller can only be used on the DJ Hero games, which there is only one. However, if you have an aspiring DJ in your household, it’s the perfect gift to keep them entertained.

Tony Hawks: RIDE

The latest Tony Hawks game, only released last week and it’s their best yet. The game comes with a state of the art skateboard controller, very similar to the Wii Balance Board. The game is pretty simple to control, even without any skateboarding experience, plus it’s great fun to play. Just like DJ Hero, the high priced controller can only be used on that game, hopefully more games will be released in the future to use this great controller.

Hopefully those have given you gift ideas for your children this Christmas. Alternatively, if you’d rather not have them stuck in-front of the television, there are plenty of otherChristmas gifts available, it’s just a case of finding them. There are plenty of other guides around, similar to this one, that advise you on which are the best gifts to buy.
