Editor's note: I've never read a limerick about video games before. I'm happy that Andrew's written a limerick that I can share without blushing. Any of you up for adding buyers'-guide limericks of your own? Here's how you craft a limerick. -Jason

It has been a while since I wrote like this
Many months between poetic trysts
But now it's back
To have a crack
At helping you with your holiday list.

New Super Mario Brothers for Wii
Remaking a remake, only subtlety
Four players to play
In a cooperative way
Cammie says friendship is 4D?

Modern Warfare 2 will scratch the itch
To call a random 12-year-old your "bitch"
Perks aplenty
E-penis is ready
In XP, at least, you'll be rich.

Guitar Hero is now on No. 5
And Kurt Cobain is now alive
You'll rant and rave
As Flava Flav
Behavior that just doesn't jive.

Brütal Legend features Jack Black
As a roadie all clad in black
Tim Schafer is here
At the end of the year
Let's hope this game's sales aren't slack.

Assassin's Creed 2 bettered the first
Quenching your murderous thirst
The secret is this
Against your wish
You'll end up in a Renaissance church.

Borderlands features cartoons living
A wasteland that's unforgiving
With thousands of arms
To do lots of harm
It's the gift that just keeps on giving.

Dragon Age is a very long quest
Designed for only the best
But it's good for the brain
And will cure all your pain
It was made by doctors, no less.

The zombies are back for your blood
Can you hold back the flood?
The panic is true
In Left 4 Dead 2
With your teammates' health on your HUD.

The Saboteur is the game for dudes
But the downloadable content is crude
If you need help with your crotch
That isn't top-notch
You'll see digital babes in the nude.

Wii Fit Plus is the new format
To use your Balance doormat
What better way
To honestly say
"By golly, I think you're fat."

Muramasa may seem very odd
With Japanese history hurrahed
2D's return to glory
With an in-depth story
The latest game from the Mangod.
