The nominees for Destructoid Game of the Year 2008 screenshot

Oh, hi, I didn’t see you there. Come on in; it’s cold outside. I was just sitting around this nice warm fire with all the Destructoid editors speaking about the ideal games of the year. No, you can join us. We would love it if you could join us. Just take off your hat and that huge jacket of yours and get comfortable. That bearskin rug is soft, isn’t it? Now, if you would just put your keys in that glass bowl over there we have the ability to get …

Whoa! Whoa! Sorry about that, everyone. I think I was sleep-typing while having one of the most oddly erotic dreams of my entire life. You were all there, as was a topless Jim Sterling. And Nick Chester dressed as a Santa, who apparently adores wearing assless chaps.

Anyway … it’s that time of year again! Time to pick the Destructoid Game of the Year for 2008! It was a pretty stellar year for videogames and all us editors had a rather tough time picking the one game to rule them all. But after a bunch of eggnog and a tragic game of spin the mistletoe (poor Grim won’t be able to wear white to his wedding anymore) we came to a pretty clear decision.

But it was a really close race — really, really close. While the actual winner won’t be revealed until tomorrow (make sure to check back!), hit the jump for a list of the top six finalists: the official nominees for Destructoid Game of the Year 2008.

Rock Band getting 'Rockin' the Holidays 2008' downloadable track pack next week screenshot

After complaining about the lack of holiday songs in music games, Harmonix and MTV Games have revealed to MTV Multiplayer that next week’s Rock Band update will fill that gaping hole.

The “Rockin’ the Holidays 2008″ track pack will include three songs — “Hanukkah Blessings” by Barenaked Ladies, “Christmas Is The Time To Say I Love You,” by Billy Squier, and The Prentenders’ cover of “Blue Christmas.” The pack will be available on December 23, just in time for Christmas; even though MTV Multiplayer doesn’t mention any pricing, something tells me it’s not going to be free … although this is the season for giving, guys.
