 |  | | From Niko Silvester, your About Video Games Editor | | | It may not be Black Friday yet — heck, it’s not even Halloween yet — but it seems like the holiday season has already begun. Eric, at least, is getting ready with his guide to the Xbox 360 for gift-givers. Brian, Charles, Michael, and Brittany, on the other hand, keep their attention on new and upcoming games you might want to add to your wishlist. | | | | | Sign up for more free newsletters: | | | | | The Xbox One may have captured the limelight this year, with its fancy graphics and fast processor, but don’t count the X360 out just yet. It makes a great gift and will keep a lot of gamers happy with its large library. Eric has some sound advice for first-time 360 buyers (and even old pros might find out something new). READ NOW | | | | Many sports game series put out a new version every year, and for the non-fan it can be a mystery why anyone would want to buy what seems like the same game over and over again. But for real sports fans, the updated rosters, smoothed-out gameplay, and new features make it worthwhile, and Brian calls ‘NBA 2K15’ “the best basketball video game to date.” READ NOW | | | | While ‘Skylanders’ might look like a money-grab (you need the toys to play the game, after all), there’s a very good reason (aside from spoiled children) that each game in the series has sold so well: they’re fun. Charles found ’Trap Team’ to be the best of the series so far, even if it means he’ll be spending more money on toys. READ NOW | | | | Brittany warns that you shouldn’t expect anything new or groundbreaking, or even very original, from ‘Swordsman Online.’ It’s a generic free-to-play MMORPG that somehow still manages to be entertaining, especially if you’re OK with level-grinding.
