			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last year (<a href="http://arcadeberg.com/game/christmas-games/">http://arcadeberg.com/game/christmas-games/</a>) I complained about there not being any real christmas games except for indie stuff.</p>
<p>I'm still not completely satisfied, but I must say that I'm not as depressed this year. With the explosion of iPhone-games and how easy it is for developers (and in the end, the consumer) to update them, I've seen a bunch of games becoming christmasified.</p>
<p>As an example, I'll show you Doodle Jump. A great game (my currect highscore is 58'000 points) that's usually not very christmasy at all.</p>
<div id="attachment_935" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 330px"><a href="http://arcadeberg.com/files/2009/12/doodle_org.PNG"><img class="size-full wp-image-935" title="doodle_org" src="http://arcadeberg.com/files/2009/12/doodle_org.PNG" alt="Doodle Jump" width="320" height="480" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Doodle Jump</p></div>
<p>But a little while ago, they released their update that <strong>makes the game more in rythm with the holiday spiri</strong>t. The same game, but new graphics. And you can still turn them off if you want to.</p>
<div id="attachment_936" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 330px"><a href="http://arcadeberg.com/files/2009/12/doodle_xmas.PNG"><img class="size-full wp-image-936" title="doodle_xmas" src="http://arcadeberg.com/files/2009/12/doodle_xmas.PNG" alt="Doodle Jump, but during christmas!" width="320" height="480" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Doodle Jump, but during christmas!</p></div>
<p>I think it's great!</p>
<p>Now, I want bigger games on PSN and XBLA to do the same. But the relase of an update is no walk in the park, unfortunately. But still, this is a great step in the right way.</p>
<p>Will we see a Doodle Jump with bunnies and eggs during Easter?</p>
<p>We'll see.</p>
<p>But now; Happy Holidays and a <strong>Merry Christmas!</strong></p>
