Thanksgiving has rolled around once again which means we’re just about ready to close out the year. It means we’re preparing our Game of the Year Awards once again. It also means that we take some time to ourselves, to be with family, friends, and loved ones. You won’t see anyone from PlayStation LifeStyle posting any news today, but before we sent them off to enjoy huge turkey dinners and a day away from writing, we asked them what they are thankful for.
We didn’t limit the question to anything video game related. We wanted to know everything that they are giving thanks for this holiday season. Even our non-American friends joined in and gave their thanks, despite not celebrating the same holiday as those of us in the United States. Food, life, friends, family, and even the ability to have empathy for others. The answers here get pretty deep. Here’s what the PlayStation LifeStyle staff had to say.
What are you giving thanks for this season? Are you locked into the usual platitudes of gratefulness, or is there something particularly special that you want to call attention to? Feel free to leave your thanks in the comments below and enjoy your holiday. Happy Thanksgiving everybody!

Happy Thanksgiving!
What are you thankful for? Here's what the PSLS staff had to say.

I'm thankful for getting over the fear of being 30 and getting excited about the opportunities that growing older affords me. I'm thankful for my wife who pushes me each and every day to do better, be better, and always strive for more. I'm grateful for the great life that I get to live, happy, healthy, and full of joy. And I am thankful for video games.

I'm thankful that I was raised to be tolerant of other people's beliefs and backgrounds in a world where everyone seems to be at war of some kind. I'm thankful for being debt-free when I see so many of my friends still paying for things that they purchased years ago. I have no house payments, no car payments, no student loans. I may not be making a lot of money but my income pays my bills, I buy a game or two, I get to write about games, and I save up for an annual vacation. Plenty to be thankful for.

Thanksgiving is not an Irish tradition but this year I'll raise a glass to my favourite video game characters: Dante, Aloy, Ellie, Nathan Drake, Solid Snake and as of April 2018, Kratos.

On this, my second Thanksgiving of the year, I am thankful for my husband, family and friends I consider family, for my ever-growing backlog, and my anime/video game figure collection.

I'm thankful for my family, the opportunities I've had and continue to have, and for Devil May Cry 5 being a thing instead of DMC 2. Happy holidays, folks.

I’m thankful for my awesome support system, the fact I accomplished so much in 2018, and that Kingdom Hearts 3 is almost two months away.
