Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris

Appear cool and learned at parties by telling people at parties that, actually, in fact it DID snow in Cairo in 2013. So this is totally plausible.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Theres a French film called Des Chiens dans la Neige, which means Dogs in the Snow. The English title of the film was changed to Wolves in the Snow. This is not a picture of that film, but it is a picture of a wolf in snow.

Killer Instinct

Cinder was as surprised as anyone when the Glacius 'statue' came to life and walloped him in his fiery chops.

Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4

"You're in a blizzard, Harry"

Lego Lord of the Rings

Real snow is made of frozen water, not plastic.

Lego Star Wars 2

The planet Hoth is made entirely of snow. Consequently, the use of un-licensed barbecues is strictly prohibited by order of the Empire.

LittleBigPlanet

We knew a man who dabbled in user-generated snow. He's in prison now.

LocoRoco

The LocoRocos leap with joy, completely oblivious to the fact the Santa shape is trapped in the chimney and the fire below has melted most of his lower body.

Lost Planet

Evolution survival 101 - blend in with your surroundings. Mother Nature really did a number on these orange-assed beasts.

Madden 12

"Touchd...mmngghghg

Mafia 2

As pretty as it looks, this screenshot is actually historically inaccurate the snow umbrella wasnt invented until 1974.
