Die Hard
What Holiday-anything list is complete without Die Hard; the ultimate Christmas movie. There is no other movie that encapsulates Christmas, and the holidays in general than Die Hard.
There have been many Die Hard games released throughout the years. Personally, the original movie is my favorite so I would go with the first Die Hard game on the NES. While it’s not the best pure video game made within the series, it surprisingly follows the movie quite closely, even more than some of the later games.
Start your adventure as action-hero John McClane and fight your way past terrorists to reach the upper levels of Nakatomi Tower and stop the evil Hans Gruber before he and his goons break into the Nakatomi vault and ruin Christmas for everyone, especially the LAPD.
For an NES game, there’s a decent amount of variation including multiple endings depending on how well you do. And of course, you get a final showdown with Hans Gruber. Yippy Ki Yay mother fucker and happy holidays!
