DAILY MANIFESTOTell GR: What Are Your Thanksgiving Gaming Traditions?Posted on Thursday, November 22 @ 12:53:25 Eastern by Daniel Bischoff
![]() For several years, I dedicatedly lugged a gray brick to and from my aunt's house. The Game Boy never left my side. If I was gone for the weekend, I'd load up several cartridges and the magnifying glass that also served as a light source. Then I got a Nintendo 64 for Christmas. Then a Game Boy Color, and a Game Boy Advance, and a GameCube.... The list goes on. Now I'm at home using the Wii U's GamePad and its dedicated screen while football and a parade dominate the screen. If I get control of the TV, I'll use it to push deeper into Halo 4's campaign. Video games have always been a part of my Thanksgiving tradition, whether I was hiding behind my laptop enjoying a few rounds of GunGame on my favorite Counter Strike: Source server or smiling as my extended family created Miis for the first time. What are your Thanksgiving gaming traditions? (And if you're from another country, say Canada, share another holiday tradition you have.) Comments

No tradition in our family. We all can't stand one another. My family though is rife with gamers and a woman who loves to shop so once we're done devouring the food and she takes a nap we'll probably play some minecraft as a family

Only other tradition we have is killing ourselves over Black Friday. We try to stay away from the massive crowds of grubs, though. Most of the headache takes place over scouring the internet.

When I was younger it was off to the grandparents (moms side) up the street or down to North Cackalacky for the other grandparents (dads side).
