Since so many of us are camping our consoles and PC's today playing the games we got in our stockings yesterday, the girls at my site and I have officially claimed Dec 26th as Gamers Day! This has been something we've been doing for the past 3 years and I wanted to take a moment to share our yearly Gamers Day poem with you guys.

/clears throat

GAMERS DAY
?Twas the day after Christmas? And all through the house?
All the gamers were playing with controller and mouse.
The new games were stacked by the TV with care
In hopes that more gamers soon would be there

The n00blings were gathered ?round the warm 360
Beside the blue glow of the resurrected Wii
PS3 had Uncharted - They were on the 5th act
While the DS was glowing with Zelda:Spirit Tracks

When out in the den there arose such a clatter
I put down Afrika to see what was the matter.
Away to the den I ran with a mission
I tripped over a box labeled ?ACTIVISION?.

The TV was giving off a warm friendly glow
And I heard a crowd cheering for what? I don?t know
When what should my wondering eyes come to find
But another Guitar Hero; Van Halen this time.

As I heard the song Jump drift through the air
I saw them pop in Modern Warfare
My brother walked by me with a game in his hands
And was begging them all to play Borderlands

The Mario Bros were alive once again
and on the PC Dragon Age; Origins
Assasins Creed 2 was ready to play
Which meant they couldn?t play Asylum today

I glanced at the systems in front of me
And wondered how lucky I could possibly be.
I ran up to my laptop to blog while they played
And to wish all my friends a Happy Gamers Day!

Ha, it would be brilliant if we could make the 26th 'Gamers Day', and I'd be happy about it :D
Good poem aswell, it reads smoothly and sticks to the point at hand:
Happy Gamers Day! :D
[small]Mwahahahaha! Now I just need to claim the 25th as Fethmas Day :D[/small]

This is actually a very good idea because the day after Christmas I usually play the crap out of my games on St. Stephen's/Boxing Day and since my Birthday is on Christmas Eve I have a lot of money to spend in the January sales!

Nice Poem BTW!

Happy Gamers' Day!

Looks like I have something to look forward to after Christmas after all!

*goes off to play S.T.A.L.K.E.R.*

Very cool poem! I didn't get any new games for Christmas, but my sister and I will definitely be playing the ones we have today. (Though it does remind me that we need to check out Spirit Tracks.)

If only the TWBB finale could be our Gamers' Day present... Oh well, we can wait. Happy Gamers' Day!

Ok well happy gamers day. But december 26th is Boxing day...so you'd better watch out or boxing day might just come to slit your throat. Also what shall be the customs of gamer day. Do people have to give gamers 5 dollars? Do gamers have to play online until they drop unconscious?

Boxing Day! Ha! Nobody cares about those non-USA holidays.

Now excuse me while I gather friends to play New Super Mario Bros. Wii.

Huh... What a wonderful little song/poem thing.


I just may have to add this to The Book of the Brothers Escapist.
