Ho-ho-ho!

Well hey, has it been another hour already? The Big Day is nearing its
end... but it's not over yet! Have you had your supper? Have you
gorged on roast and potatoes and all sorts of tasty goodies? As you
pick at the plum pie, reach over and grab another gift from 'neath the
tree. It won't be hard to choose; there's not many boxes left.

Well, this box sure is a vibrant orange; I wonder what's inside. Open
it and find out!


* Binary Domain (w/DLC)
https://store.steampowered.com/sub/27824/	
   When it comes to the gameplay, "Binary Domain" isn't that 
   special. It's a third-person cover shooter, the sort that 
   was quite popular in the early 2010s when this game first 
   released. No, what makes this game special is its art LC8K8
   design. Not so much the graphics, but the style; it well 
   captures the anime aesthetic. Which isn't to say it looks 
   all cel-shaded and cartoony; no, not at all. But how the 
   levels look, and the characters, and the robots... it's 8L4HY 
   quite anime. You get a real "Ghost in the Shell" feel to 
   the game. If you like that style (and I do!) you'll quite 
   enjoy this game. And even if you don't, it's still a fun 
   shooter.5V8IF


The spot under the tree is looking pretty bare now; there are just a
few more games to go. Will one of them be yours? You'll get another
chance in a bit. See you all then!

Ho-ho-ho!
