My kids love Spyro – too little for Call of Duty though at the moment
These all look like fun! I’m a big Call of Duty fan – my friends and I used to play split screen and have the best time haha. I’ve been wanting to try out the Spyro game too!
I remember when my kids used to play Crash. Now they are really into Red Dead 2. Currently that’s all I hear about.
Ooh this post will be great for the future! My little boy isn’t quite old enough for these but I’m sure someday he will love them 🙂
Definitely, the new Call of Duty will be a mega hit! All the others are great too! Thanks for sharing this list. xo, Suzanne
I don’t really play video games, but if I had to choose, it would be Spyro or Crash Bandicoot. I always like to choose the ones rated “E” for everyone.
Wow I remember playing Crash Bandicoot with my kids. Lots of great games.
I’m not the gaming type but my godson is, I’m always at loss when I have to get him a present. These sound pretty amazing suggestions!
This is such a great post on what to get this holiday season for those into video games, I am going to share this with some of my friends who have boys who are into video games.
Spyro is a great game franchise for kids! They will love it! My kids were really into it when they were younger
Ooooo my kiddo would love these games!!!! With the cold weather here to stay, video games make the beat entertainment
Spyro was one of my favorites. I bet my little ones would love this.
