      The N64 version in particular is 25 minutes. The PS1 version is longer, but that's mostly because of the slower engine and longer loading times. As a whole, you were practically spending $50 for a game you can beat in the time it takes some people to eat dinner.

The fact that you can beat the game doing nothing again is incredible that you got to play another game with this problem.
    Yes the image with holding the Wii remote on its side gave me the feeling of being a bad game..... When you showed us the images days ago anyway lol.
    Again your reactions to certain events in the review was awesome, especially when you commented on how the movie was made in the 60s.
    Plus the pun on you picking Rudolph was pretty good, I love puns and wouldn't hurt you for pun making........ Unlike some people lol.
    And the song, it was you, and it was funny, and it was to the tune of a Christmas movie, it's brilliant... A MASTERPIECE! lol... It was good I loved it.
    Well got to go, I'll be seeing ya when you message us and in the next video, so see ya and MERRY CHRISTMAS BRO! (Happy Birthday Jesus...nope I'm NOT regretting saying that.) God Bless bro, hope you have a great Christmas with friends and family alike bro. 🙂🎄🎄🎄
    P. S. Also you using the "WHY WEREN'T YOU AT ELF PRACTICE!?" Was brilliant, not mad at your excuse to use that, I would have done that too, and on that note, there's something I wanted to ask of you for a little while now....

    Not gonna lie, the title screen music sounds like a bootleg/drunk version of the Rudolph song.

    Hmmm, there was also The Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie's Revenge. Which plays much like Devil May Cry.

      I really wish Nintendo systems got that one. I don't care if it got average reviews, I'd still likely find enjoyment out of it.

      That was actually one of the games I looked into covering for the original Christmas Games idea, but I couldn't find a copy in time.

    Also high voltage studios also did Charlie and the chocolate factory video game.
    Yeah. The 2000s version.

    Predictable Christmas joke incoming, but
    Whoever made this game should’ve been on the naughty list for ruining several children’s Christmas.
