We’ve all played the Resident Evil 5 Demo by now right? Right. I have been a gamer for more than half my life now, and I’ve never played a Resident Evil game. Mainly because I’ve never been much into zombies (although I love Left 4 Dead now). I have always had the understanding that when a new RE game comes out, it sells a ton of copies. I never really knew why but I knew it was a fact.

So RE5 popped on to the Marketplace not too long ago, and I gave it a whirl. It has had a ton of hype, I saw previews of it from E3 ‘08 and various gaming websites so I went in with really high hopes. Basically all that I knew was that the graphics were going to be stellar and that I was going to shoot some zombies.

T’was the night before Christmas and all through the house, Christian Gamers were stirring at their keyboard and mouse. Their consoles were glowing discs whirring with care,
This night for hours their TV’s they’d stare.

Beasts boy was nestled all snug in his bed,
While Daddy was screaming “why don’t you stay dead”
And mamma was sleeping in bed she did nap,
And Jeff at his TV had nOObs he would smack.

Dan would play with his friends and cause such a clatter,
A curse word was spoken and he said “what’s the matter”
Away to a party he declared and not feared,
He even hung ornaments on his sparse little beard.

The evening was dark for Scootero and James, a  warm comfort glow from the fire and flames.
A strange thing did happen, hey what could that be,
It’s only Scootero taking an invisi-pee.

As Drew battled zombies he grew quite frustrated
his partners knew nothing and their names he berated
Kept warm from the dryer while doing his laundry,
He shouted to Dan “Oh you’re such a quandry”

All HCGers we thank you with love,
We love you like family, with Father above
Your games you must play, and must fight the good fight,

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
