When I was younger, I used to lose myself in video games. I can vividly remember 2 a.m. nights spent fighting bad guys as a Jackie Chan character or competing with my sister in a heated car race. There's nothing like escaping into that world, and it's even better when you do it with a friend or family member.
I have since replaced my gaming obsession with reading, but you could easily get me to start playing a video game with you. If you have experienced the all-too-familiar adrenaline rush or know someone who's about that life, I curated the perfect gift guide to make game time even more enjoyable (and longer).
