Last night, you waited outside a game store for your favorite game’s midnight launch. You’ve waited months and months for this game to come out, and that day is finally here. There’s only one thing missing: Gamer fuel. What are you going to reach for to keep in prime condition for an all-night frag-fest? Chips? Hell no! There’s no nutritional value, so it won’t keep you at the top of your game. And, worse still, it’ll grease up your controller. Instead, reach for a Hot Pocket Snacker that’s baked, not fried.

Whoever said that game developers can’t be giving to gamers in need this holiday season, and particularly those who may have jumped on the 360 train a bit too early, not realizing that they would be losing many of the excellent PlayStation exclusives that they were used to? Well, in a practically unfathomable act of generosity, upon hearing that a particular 360 owner would not be able to enjoy the destructive mayhem that is Twisted Metal next year, co-directer and co-lead designer at Eat.Sleep.Play David Jaffe took it upon himself to try and bring a little PS3 cheer to a 360 owner in need.
