"Today the festivities may be over and hopefully you’re all settling down to some well deserved videogaming time. It is also the day Electronic Theatre brings you the third instalment of The Twelve Games of Christmas series.

Unless you want to know which actor played a certain role in a movie or game, people generally don't bother watching credits. Usually consisting of black background with white scrolling text, they're boring. So it's always nice when developers try to spice up the ending credits in an attempt to get you to watch them. Here are Gamesradar's Best And Worst Ending Credits In Games.

"The game plays akin to the modern standardised Third-Person Shooter template, seemingly set-in-stone by Gears of War. Progressing through tightly structured linear levels designed to make use of the ingrained Cover System, players fight an increasingly bizarre cast of videogame machinations as the boisterous Matt Hazard. The twist in the tale is that Matt Hazard himself is aware that he is in a videogame, and as a washed-out videogame hero given the chance of a comeback is ardently involved i..."
"D3Publishers highly-anticipated Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard finally hit shop shelves in the US and Europe over the past week. And in their usual fashion, the publisher has seen fit to compile a Walkthrough for those having troubles with the dastardly Wallace Wally Wellesley and his army of adversaries form yesteryear."
"Vicious Cycle Software, developers of Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard, had previously announced plans for a downloadable title based on the up-and-coming franchise, and in a Questions & Answer session revealed to Electronic Theatre that the game would arrive of both Xbox LIVE Arcade and PlayStation Network this Summer."
"Electronic Theatre: The game uses a cover system seen in many third-person action games today, and while weve already seen Eat Lead: The Return Of Matt Hazards point-to-cover addition to the standard template, what other control schemes have you developed to aid the player?
D3 Our whole goal with our cover system was to try and work around some of the difficulties people have when moving in cover. A lot of games counter this by only having the enemies placed in front of you. Our e..."
"Vicious Cycle Software, a premier developer of interactive entertainment and game development technology, has announced that Vicious Engine 2, the second installment of their highly adaptable game development platform, will officially be launched at this years Game Developers Conference (GDC) in San Francisco."
"The game casts the player as Matt Hazard, a retired videogame action hero whos career was torn apart by shoddy franchise cash-ins. Given one last chance of stardom by the owner of videogame publishing giant Marathon Software, Wallace Wally Wellesley, he jumps in head first only to find that not everything is as it seems."

"The title plays as a Third-Person Action game, and comparisons with Gears of War are inevitable. With D3Publisher themselves responsible for this years thoroughly enjoyable Dark Sector (recently featured in Electronic Theatres Unsung Heroes series), its already been demonstrated that the obvious borrowing of a technique, when well implemented, cannot necessarily..."

"Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard is probably a title not too many of you are currently familiar with. Having only been unveiled last week, the PLAYSTATION3 and Xbox360 Third-Person Shooter title may well have passed many by in the menagerie of rehashed announcements of all those exclusive features in the forthcoming big fourth-quarter releases. But, why should you have noticed it? Amongst the likes of Gears of War 2, Resistance 2, LittleBigPlanet, Mirrors Edge, Dead Space and Fable II, wh..."
