You know, I'm getting tired of the usual. Today let's start with a

		Ha! Ha! Ha!

There, that changes things up; why, you'd hardly know this is a
Christmas game give-away thread (also open to all people of different
faiths - Hindu, Jewish, Moslems, Shintoists, Buddhists - everyone
except for those dirty Festivus celebrators; you know what you can do
with your Pole ;-) ;-). No game for you!

But seriously, here we've got another game. What game, you ask? This
game!

Today's game is:

Resident Evil Revelations 1
--------------------------------

Didn't I already give away this game earlier this month? No, you silly
bunny, that was Resident Evil Revelations _2_, and that was only for
the first episode! This is a give-away for Resident Evil Revelations
_1_, and includes the whole game. It's completely different! I mean,
okay, it's basically the same story (zombie outbreak, kill 'em!) and
gameplay, and its made by the same developers and has the same
graphics engine and both got pretty much the same metacritic score
and... look, all that's not the point! It's two different games! So
grab the key and shoot some zombies already!

Platform: Windows PC
Distributor: Steam
Key: GVRQC-8C8G7-G58AA 

(are the zombies dead yet?)

Ha! Ha! Ha!

I am not a big fan of zombie games but my brother is. This will make
him happy at the very least as the Resident Evil series is about the
only video games he ever plays. So he and I both thank you for this
one.

    The opening chapters of this (on the ship) are quite good.  The graphics 
are excellent; the atmosphere, with it's tight corridors and storm-tossed 
ocean, appropriately claustrophobic and tense.  The later chapters, which 
switch back and forth between characters and groups of characters, is pretty 
confusing and flow-breaking, and the story will require close attention to 
make sense of all the twists and double-crossings.

But yeah, I definitely give this one a thumbs up!
