You would think that the week following Christmas would be filled with video games in which we could spend our newly acquired cash, but, sadly, not a single full release will be seeing the light of day throughout the week of December 29, 2014. However, even it isn’t a full game on its own, you start playing the Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta if you own a copy of The Master Chief Collection. So that’s cool, right?
Anyways, there are plenty of things to do gaming-wise while waiting for the new releases of 2015. First off, you could clear out your gaming backlog. I know mine is huge right now, so yours must be too as well. Secondly, you could spend all of your Holiday money on the incredible Steam Holiday Sale that has hundreds of titles discounted daily. And lastly, though this one isn’t gaming related, you must spend as much time with your friends and families as the Holiday break nears its end. Cheers everyone!
Note: All of the dates and prices listed below are for North American territories. Also, keep in mind that this list is subject to change with new games potentially announced or launching this week without notice.
