How to play the classic games of Christmas past

In homes around the world people will be unwrapping new games consoles this festive season. If you are lucky enough to be the recipient of a Microsoft Kinect or PlayStation Move on Christmas Day, then you will no doubt enjoy many hours of jumping around like a total loon while Grandma falls asleep with a large sherry for company in the corner. Some of us, though, will be playing the games of Christmas past and you can as well. You don't have to be a collector of vintage games consoles to enjoy the realistic Bomberman, Chuckie Egg or Zork experience. Retro video games emulators bring classic games back to life on your PC, your web browser or in your pocket, courtesy of the iPhone.
