Survive the holiday season with a little help from PlayStation.

Want to know how to get through the holidays, PlayStation style? Then here it is: five must-have accessories and games that will get you through the holiday season with ease and a whole lot of fun.

PlayTV

It's going to be a busy time with loads of great programmes on the TV to watch and PlayTV is the ultimate tool for storing all those great films and shows. PlayTV lets you record, watch and program terrestrial television through your PlayStation 3. What's more, PlayTV can record in the background while you're busy fighting off hordes of Chimera in Resistance 2 or speeding through the island in MotorStorm: Pacific Rift.

Connect PlayTV to your TV aerial and your PS3 via the USB cable provided and for instant access to TV and radio channels; it's that simple. You can also pause and rewind live TV as well as connect to PlayTV with your PSP via Remote Play, allowing you to watch live TV on your PSP wherever you find a Wireless connection.

SingStar

Looking for the ultimate party night peripheral? With so many SingStar games to choose from, the smash hit series is the best for kickstarting the festivities. Whether you want to grab hold of the microphone and belt out classics such as Waterloo and Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! in SingStar ABBA or rock out with tracks from Blink 182 or Twisted Sister on SingStar Vol.1, there are songs for every kind of music lover.

And with the addition of PlayStation Eye, you can capture all your favorite performances and share them with the rest of the world through My SingStar Online. Plus, with hundreds of additional tracks available for download on the SingStore, there's no shortage of festive crackers for all your friends and family.

EyeCreate

During the break there is no doubt you're going to have loads of great pictures of the family having fun together and you can use EyeCreate to turn them into something really special. Working in tandem with your PlayStation Eye, you can use EyeCreate to take photos or create videos.

It's really easy to use and you can even add a whole selection of special effects to each video or photo when creating your very own holiday season storyboard. With an advanced multimedia editing suite, you can tweak your photos or videos to your heart's content, crafting your very own festive film. EyeCreate comes packaged with the PlayStation Eye or can be easily downloaded from the PlayStation Store.
