Rushing something (usually a video game) in order to release it in time to coincide with a special date (usually Christmas or an anniversary).
The opposite of Development Hell, which is when a game takes forever to be released.

Christmas Rushing is generally a bad thing.
ET (Atari), Sonic 2006, and Action 52 are all examples of games that were Christmas Rushed. Today, they are considered some of the worst video games of all time.
Action 52 is considered the worst example of a rushed game because there really wasn't a reason for it to be rushed. The developer just demanded that the game be made in three months (even THREE YEARS would have been tight), and...well, yes.
However, Christmas Rushing doesn't always end poorly. For example, did you know that Sonic The Hedgehog 3 was rushed? Considering how amazing the game is, you probably couldn't tell by looking.
