Earlier today, Jon Carnage and I hosted a very special episode of The Destructoid Show. When I say "very special," I mean it in both the heartwarming holiday way, and also in the short-bus kind of way.

We counted down our top five favorite games that involve snow and/or ice, read some of the holiday gaming memories you guys submitted, and warned you about some of the weirder presents you might receive this year from ill-informed relatives. If you're looking for actual gaming news, I apologize in advance.

Also, Hamza told me to tell you that he's giving away a few of those kickass HKS Racing controllers for the PlayStation 3. Just subscribe us on YouTube or iTunes for a chance to win!

Let me see... Other good snow levels would be: any of the snow related dungeons in Zelda games, Freezeezy Peak from Banjo-Kazooie,a bunch of levels from cart racers that I can't remember the names of, that one snow level of Spyro 2, and others I can't remember right now...

Analoge

Thanks for the mention gents.

Holy hell, Jon Carnage, I have the same hat as you. Not similar in design or type of fur, but the exact same fucking hat! Who would've guessed?

The Silent Protagonist

I would like to wish all Verdukians a Happy Merlinpeen.

Super Drybones

You cna speed up in SKi Free and beat the monster. Maybe? Do I lie?

Frogboss

When did Judah Friedlander start hosting Destructoid? Seriously Carnage with those sun glasses and hat on I swear you look like you could be that guys brother.

spineofsnow

Tee hee that got better as it went along. Haven't laughed that hard in a while.

DuckedUpOnQuack

You guys are hilarious but I already miss Jonathan Holmes and Tara Long. Maybe I'm just not used to your guys' antics, no matter how heartwarmingly funny-bone-tickling they are.

SxSW

Havoc Fang

Can these two do it every time~?

Evergreen

That was absolutely ridiculous! Well done, and happy holidays!

Tyson The Tool

Best part of my morning so far:

"At my house, we light black candles and wait for Satan Clause to drop a giant bag of reindeer entrails down the chimney."

"WHAT?!?"

PappaDukes

May you all have a kiss-ass Kwanza!

nalor

So which one of you is the Tara Long in this relationship?

Max Scoville

@mundaft Sorry, we should probably have a disclaimer about that. We're like a pair of untamable internet stallions.

DaedHead8

Great episode you guys! I loved the game parodies, especially Red Head Redemption, that was great. Also, the look on Max's face when he finished describing his Holiday tradition was classic.

namtastic

Now that's how you end an episode. You two should make more regular appearances in the episodes.

Charlietime

merry holidays

Jonathan Holmes

Great job, dudes! You make me feel great.

bobyoko

i never laugh at internet vids, but you caught me twice with this episode. way to fill in guys!

Best snow level is by far Donkey Kong Country - Snow Barrel Blast (Stage 4 - 1). When it starts out sunny, then gets darker, starts to snow a little and then ALOT.
