Video Game New Years
December 31st, 2008 by Taylor Thomas
Chances are you’ll be spending some time with video games tonight as you ring in the New Year. We’re guessing that amidst the periodic peek at what’s happening in New York and the occasional snack and beverage, there will be a whole lot of video gaming going on. What better way to bid farewell to 2008 and welcome in 2009? The obvious contenders will be party games like Guitar Hero, Rock Band, Lips, Dance Dance (insert version here), and anything on the Wii.
Xbox Live folks can dress up for the occasion, with a variety of new clothes for their avatar. The fellas may sport:
- Rave baseball cap
- Purple (dark purple) jeans
- Green skinny jeans (aka Peter Pan tights)
- Pixel Art hoodie
- Pink sweat bands
And the gals, who always get more (quantity and style) in real life accessories, can don a new:
- Rave baseball cap
- Chunky ring (red or green)
- Fingerless gloves (yellow or blue)
- Day-glo zebra print pumps
- Chunky beaded bracelet
So whether you’re playing dress-up on your Xbox, ringing in the New Year in a mythical land, harassing people on PlayStation Home or losing to your niece in Mario Kart, have a good time. Happy New Year!
Ever notice that the word console has two meanings? You know, I think there is some really good analogy here about video game systems being able to comfort, soothe, bring cheer, even raise somebody’s spirits. Console. Hmm… Here are some more great posts that will console all console lovers:
