What did you get for Christmas: Gaming Edition

Expecting Silent Hill for the Wii and um...

not much else!

Though Steam's sale has already claimed my wallet for Outrun 2006 C2C. Just waiting on more timed deals.

My parents have been hinting im getting a PS3. So that'll probably be it.

Of course they could always pull the dick move and hint at one thing and end up "surprising" me with something else.

I have to laugh at the thought of some poor dude expecting a 360 or a PS3, and getting a Wii. Along with a copy of Tony Hawk Ride.

And no receipt.

My parents are divorced so I effectively get two separate Christmases. That explains the rather large bounty each year.

What I know is under the tree:

Here at home:

Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks + guide
Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (from dad, shipped here)
GameSpite Quarterly Volume 3 Deluxe Edition (from dad, shipped here)
New Super Mario Bros. Wii (from dad, shipped here)

At dad's place (lol i'm smart see how all the M games get sent to my dad's rather than my conservative christian mom's home):

God of War Collection
Demon's Souls
GameSpite Quarterly Volume 2 Deluxe Edition
Nostalgia

+ whatever I might get from my siblings and maybe a few extra surprises from mom and dad
 
Muramasa: The Demon Blade, cool :D.

Got myself Rayman DSiWare a few minutes ago. Decent port, although the lack of voiced intro, death tune, end level tune, as well as the low-pitched sounds/voices (as opposed to how they're supposed to sound) kinda bother me :/.
 
i asked for one game and that is Zelda: Spirit Tracks. Other presents i have no idea what those are so i won't know 'til tomorrow on x-mas day.

It's been an extraordinarily shitty Christmas for me so far this year, and I've been repeatedly warned by the usual gift-giving suspects that money's so tight they probably can't afford to buy me much of anything, so if I do end up getting something it most likely won't be gaming related.

But, at least I had money to buy gifts with, so there'll be something under the tree tonight, even if it's not for me. Better to give than to receive and all of that!

Add me to steam :D
 
I only put forth LoZ: Spirit Tracks as a game that I wanted, don't really need any other ones and anything else I get is just icing on the cake.
 
I'm pretty sure the only gaming-related thing I'm getting is... well, they're a well-meaning family member, but... Scribblenauts. And an official guide for Scribblenauts. They don't know my DS broke several months ago.

Oh well, maybe I can return it the next day when I try to get Silent Hill Wii with the money and gift cards I get. :\
 
Modern Warfare 2, early christmas a couple weeks ago
Forza Motorsport 3
Something else that looks like a game case under the tree, could be Star Trek Blu Ray though. Always love a good surprise!
 
So far only BlazBlue Limited Edition for 360 and SMT: Devil Summoner 2 Collector´s Edition, and I´m planning to get a Hori Real Arcade Pro EX-SE for my 360. But I really don´t have that much time to game nowadays.
 
Haven't gotten it yet but there is a 99% chance I should be getting Assassin's Creed tomorrow.

Somewhat related to gaming: got a Logitech Harmony remote and a PS3 adapter so I should be able to condense down from 5 or 6 remotes to 1. :lol

A little less related to gaming: got Inglourious Basterds, The Hangover and Watchmen: Directors Cut on Bluray.
 
Uncharted 2 and Valkyria Chronicles. FF XIII was originally going to be under the tree, but no way in hell could I hold out for a week.
 
I picked up Cross Edge. It's an interesting game so far, but I haven't gotten far in it yet.

Also, picked up a new plasma TV. The game looks awesome on it :D
 
Bought The Last Remnant cause I saw it on sale for $5 the other day other than that nothing yet. Hoping to get Assassin's Creed 2 or Forza 3 tomorrow.
 
So far, a $50 gift certificate to GameStop... expecting a few more game-related gifts tho.
 
This so far, maybe more in the morning.

NEW SUPER MAIRO BRO PAJAMA PANTS!!! Don't I look awesome with them on:

My parents are divorced as well, and I celebrated Christmas with my father tonight (Christmas Eve), so here's what I made away with:

A Boy and His Blob (Wii)
6000 Nintendo points
2 download cards for Gran Turismo PSP (my father was confused when buying me PSN cards and thought these where them, hence why there's two. Heading to Best Buy with receipt in hand on Saturday to exchange them for PSN cards)

And a few other small things (received a set of various screw drivers from the GF that can be used on my systems (including a tri-wing!), some usb 4GB flash drives, a little cash and some food gift cards). There is more in the coming days as I'm celebrating Christmas with my GF's family tomorrow and then with my mom on January 2nd.

I don't think you can return gift cards anywhere.

That's what I'm afraid of, but I'm going to see what I can do. Technically I suppose they're gift cards? I'd be happy to just get BB gift cards in return, I don't really want cash.

:lol I got Super Paper Mario pajamas :D

Those sound very awesome. I also got a CoD:MW2 set, but I don't know, I don't really like how they look. And its more then just a set of pants, its a whole outfit. You have a shirt, pants, boxers, slippers, I think there was even a cap!
 
Oh shit son.

I now have every current gen console :D (PS3/X360/Wii + PSP/DS). I had an inkling my girlfriend and mum would combine their gifts this year, possibly for a Wii, but had no idea they'd get me a sexy as shit black one. Now how do I get this giant black rubber condom the fuck off :lol and play some god damned GALAXY?
 
This was a good Christmas gaming-wise (I usually don't get anything gaming related):

- Machinarium from the girlfriend:

- Persona PSP from GAF's Secret Santa:

DSC04936.jpg
 
A $50 PSN card and $120 bucks in an envelope from Santa. He knows damn well I'm going to spend it on games. Probably Borderlands and a replacement for the Demon's Souls disc I broke
 
So far I know about God of War Collection and Demon's Souls. Not sure what else there will be. Probably some gift certificates. Hoping for an Amazon one for some PSN stuff today or Wii points. UC2 I left off my lists because I was planning on buying it already but I'll just pick it up next week.
