    0:10 Usually when someone has a clone of themselves they do a closeup as the door opens or zoom it in after the door opens. I did not expect him to jump in and chuck Christmas cheer everywhere. Well done!

    does LGR get killed off by one of his clones every single year?
    how creepy

      @invghost 7 лет назад +16

      What if every year, the clone that kills LGR takes his place. The real LGR died at the first Christmas and every year after that it has actually been a clone of Clint.

    • @CutePuppy351
      @CutePuppy351 6 лет назад +2

    Can I just tell you how my day was completely made by this video? I had this program on my first PC, and I had totally forgotten about it until now. This brings back so many amazing memories. So many of your 90's PC reviews do. Thanks for being on RUclips!

    Thank you LGR, Christmas Kye was the game I played on my grandma's computer as a kid that I couldn't remember the name for. This has been bugging me for years, I am finally at peace.

  • @TheNostalgiaMall
    @TheNostalgiaMall 11 лет назад +15

    Christmas and old computers always go hand in hand, at least for me, so I always look forward to you Christmas videos. Will have to try this program on my Windows 3.11 machine. Thanks for the awesome video!

  • @Fuzy2K
    @Fuzy2K 11 лет назад +26

    Your face at 0:14 was hilarious, as was the scream immediately before it.
    Hmm, I shall call it the "Clinthelm Scream"... :P

  • @MrEdrftgyuji
    @MrEdrftgyuji 11 лет назад +5

    I had this back in the day on my Windows 3.1 machine - I was probably about 5 or 6 at the time. The only thing I really remembered was the Kye game, and for many years it really bugged me as I did not have the disks and could not recall what it was called or find any information about it online. Thanks to this video I managed to track down a copy of Christmas Kye online, and I can still remember some of the level layouts despite it being something like 18-20 years ago when I last played it. So, thanks for the nostalgia :)

  • @suirdCh

    I was going to make a witty remark about how not only do you not review games sometimes, but you're also not lazy and sometimes your videos aren't reviews, but honestly I wouldn't want things any other way. So keep doing what you're doing, you magnificently not-Lazy sometimes-not-Games sometimes-not-Reviewer!

  • @saibotdd
    @saibotdd 11 лет назад +1

    Hi LGR, I enjoy your videos and I really think, from a comedic standpoint, this is your best work yet. I'm happy that someone cares about all the PC "classics". You're awesome and have a nice Christmas!

  • @JessicaLaFramboise
    @JessicaLaFramboise 11 лет назад +2

    Oh how my sisters and I loved to change the colors on Windows 93. There was always lots of magenta being paired with yellow and cyan. XD It usually resulted in being yelled at by Mom (Dad is colorblind >:D), but whatever. I had kind of forgotten about that until I watched this video. Fun times.
    I love watching your videos! In fact, my daughter and I have watched the Katy Perry Sweet Treats review multiple times because of Sweet Treats House of Pain. Also, you have a Duke Nukem sim which is probably the best thing ever.

    @PeterMetzger 9 лет назад +3

    SO MANY MEMORIES ARE HAPPENING RIGHT NOW
    Our version had a different set of games - still the matching one and Kye (which was awesome) but the third game was one where two elves have to run back and forth between conveyor belts to get the presents to the right locations. Definitely better than Holiday Delivery!

    • @stu1701E

    Oh my word, thanks for this! I've been trying to think of the title for ages! I used to love this the whole year through on my first Win95 pc. Just paused the video to comment and now I'm going to sit back and enjoy. :)

    What memories... that was a great game and I loved it. I wish there was a reboot of it or something... same idea as me there with the Christmas music except I had the idea of playing Christmas music in the background while playing an FPS online. Slaughtering fellow players to the sound of Christmas music... yeah... it's the gift that keeps on giving. Or... it's one of the gifts atleast heh...
    Awesome videos as always here... informative, hilarious and enjoyable to watch.

  • @veggiet2009
    @veggiet2009 7 лет назад +1

    As a child I loved this. I still remember it fondly even though now as an adult I can see it looks rather half hearted in design.
    Also really liked Kye, I still probably would play it occasion if I had access to, the Christmas themed version again I saw as a bonus.

  • @SoulSyster

    I was the creator and developer of Christmas for Windows 93. I thought this was a great review but keep in mind that the software was already 20 years old by the time this review was created. I didn't have any slowness problems or issues described in this review back in Windows 3.1, because most of the games were written in the x86 Assembly language. More modern computers 20 years later had to emulate the instructions set which made the program seemed jerky. The Pentium processor had just come out that same year and I was targeting that processor in my development.
    I gave up the rights to Christmas for Windows after the 93 version and the new owner created newer versions for the newer computers.

I'm anxious to hear your thoughts on A Very Postal Christmas, and the Postal series in general, seeing as how you're a fan of the Carmageddon Reviews. I'd review the game myself, but I haven't finished it yet and would like to hear your take on it.

    Speaking about being ripped apart by spider in "Sim Ant" while listening to christmas carols... I vaguely recall playing some kind of x-mas addon (which I can't google out?) to the oryginal Postal with my pal years ago and then putting a carols CD into the CD-ROM drive in some kind of twisted revelation. Heh, I'll never forget the bewildered look at said pal's face :P
    Believe me, nothing beats Santa crying "Rudolf, help me find my leg" illustrated with chorus singing "Silent night" ;)
