The last few years have brought about a surge in popularity for some pretty nifty Christmas sweaters; I've done a shop around the internet to find the best ones for gamers across the globe. The prices are listed in US dollars and GBP where applicable.
Whether you're a Sony, Microsoft or Nintendo fan their's plenty of festive cheer for all, maybe it will be your first Christmas with a sweater to match! You can be sure you'll be the envy of all your friends with one of these in your collection!
Super Mario Bros Sweater
Where: Merchoid
Price: $44.99 (£31.99)
8-bit Mario was clearly always meant to be knitted, he fits perfectly on this retro-inspired sweater. This is a definite buy for any Nintendo fan out there. Whilst very minimal the inclusion of snowflakes in between Mario's coins is a nice touch.
Pokemon
Where: Teefury
Price: $25
If you're a Pokefan then you can pick from water, fire, grass or electric and they're all equally adorable sweaters. Featuring some popular favourites from the original era, you will definitely stand out at your Christmas parties! An ideal gift for anyone looking to catch em' all!
PlayStation Sweater
Where: Zavvi
Price: $53.88 (£34.99)
This one is one of my favorites, there's a lot of detail that has gone into the design. The controller icons on the bottom, the start and select buttons in the middle and the d-pad buttons along the top will ensure you'll stand out in the crowd. The icing on the cake is that old-school PlayStation logo in the middle!
Sonic The Hedgehog
Where: Technopieces
Price: $52.99 (£35.08)
Forget your Sonic: Lost Worlds, Sonic Boom, or any other 3D outing the blue hedgehog has had in recent years; this jumper highlights the joyful '90s 2D Sonic. A lot of people consider him the best of the bunch so you can't really go wrong with this one, the colors fit the festive season perfectly too!
Street Fighter
Where: IWOOT
Price: $53.88 (£34.99)
Street Fighter is one of those old arcade titles that made its way successfully over to consoles. Street Fighter V is on the horizon for 2016 so what better way to celebrate the excitement of Christmas with two of your favourite characters. There are a couple out there with other members of the Street Fighter family so you're not limited to just Guile and Cammy.
Assassins Creed Syndicate
Where: Yellowbulldog
Price: £38.99
This sweater features a very iconic landmark from the UK, as well as the popular logo for the Assassins Creed series. It's also the official sweater for the newest entry, Syndicate. The pricing is shown as GBP as the website charges just £4 for worldwide delivery.
Fallout 4

With the release of Fallout 4 this week, this is the official VAULT-TEC sweater for the holiday season. It is the perfect time to wear it, now you can be a member of Vault 111 with the official colours and emblazoned on the back are the numbers '111'.
