Try as you might to avoid it, it'll probably happen anyway. Family fights. A couple of glasses of wine with two helpings of dinner and desert will bring out skeletons in any family's closet. Although you might argue with your crazy uncle about politics or whether Han or Greedo shot first, just be glad you haven't devolved to swordfighting and gunplay like Dante and Vergil, the sparring brothers in the Devil May Cry series.
After taking in a couple pounds of turkey, most folks'll probably let themselves digest while watching football. Why not be proactive this year and play Madden for the Wii? Not only will the game be more entertaining than the one you watch, it'll help burn off the pounds you put on one meal ago.
Gaming public, stop making your mom suffer. She gave birth to you, waited in line to get a Wii for you (she won't admit it though--she's saving it for Christmas), and on Thanksgiving, she'll likely be in the kitchen all day, making sure the stuffing is just right. If you get some practice in on the DS/Wii culinary sim Cooking Mama, maybe you can help out around the kitchen this year and help make more then a mess at the table, you pig.
Don't know what tryptophan is? It's the chemical in Turkey that makes everyone sleepy after the big meal--or the one that people use as a scapegoat to avoid cleaning the table after eating. To help bring about the tryp's side effects, play a couple minutes of the boring Xbox 360 adventure title, Kameo. The lush dreamscapes and lack of action will have you nodding off in no time.
What, you thought Thanksgiving ended at midnight on Thursday? Not quite. Are you ready to face the biggest shopping day of the year? Yep, Black Friday. Stores open at the crack of dawn that day, and the early-bird customers are as rabid and bleary-eyed as the throngs of zombies you'll fight through in Dead Rising. Just don't behead someone for a $300 HDTV, ok?
