Naughty Dog's card

Most game companies release holiday cards during this time, and it’s no different this year. We have most of the holiday cards for your viewing pleasure. You can check them out below.

Naughty Dog’s card was really awesome this year, and it features the two characters from their new IP, The Last of Us.

We want to take this chance and wish all our readers a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year- stay tuned to GamingBolt, we’ve got something big planned for you. We are a growing website, and we want to keep growing, and we will. Your feedback is appreciated, and we’re listening to everything you are saying- we will be a better site.

2011 has been an awesome year for gaming- we’e had awesome games like Skyrim, Uncharted 3, Modern Warfare 3, Skyward Sword and so many others. We saw the launch of the 3DS, the PlayStation Network hack, Duke Nukem Forever’s super-belated and horrendous release, the announcement of the Wii U, the PS Vita… Then there was E3, which, albeit a bit disappointing, was still our best coverage of the event in our short history as a wesbite.

We also managed to end the note on a high with our Game of the Year awards. We hosted the biggest awards on the internet this year, boasting of over 60 categories. You can see our nominees and winners here.

We’ve been writing several features regarding what to expect out of 2012 in video games, and how this year was, and we’ll be writing more. And though the next few days will definitely be slow in terms of activity, we will keep posting anything that we think is interesting and might pique your curiosity.

As an Indian website, we’ve undoubtedly performed better than our expectations, as evident by our loyal readers visiting us again and again. Next year, we will strive to reach out to many people, and we have just the things in mind to do that. 2012 will be a huge year for GamingBolt, and it will be nothing short of a revolution. Our staff has worked day and night providing our readers the best news, features and reviews and hopefully our coverage will expand to many areas.

And so here we are, at the end of our third year as a gaming site. We’ve been growing, thanks to you, our readers, and we will grow more- we have a lot of big things planned, and we’re hoping you’ll like it. Again, stay tuned, and Merry Christmas!

Old Nick needs your help!

If you decide to log on to Home, you will find that old Santa Claus is in dire need of help. His little Elve’s have absconded from the Christmas den, so Father Christmas is willing to give you a few Home gifts in return for some voluntary labour.

The Winter Wonderland for PS Home is set up on Sony’s European blog already, and we expect it to be up in the US shortly.
