What did you get for Christmas: Gaming Edition

Nothing game-wise. Did get a sort of combination netbook/notebook (Toshiba T110), which I guess could be classified as a gaming related thing even though it's mostly for work, but okay. Did get Madden 10 for my dad as he's a NFL fan (living in Australia, funnily enough) though, and I'll probably play that sometimes as well.
 
So far:

* New Super Mario Bros. Wii
* The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks

Maybe another game or two during the weekend.
 
White DSi.

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?[/QUOTE]

You guys already have the black Wiis?

wtf
 
Borderlands!

Been wanting to buy it for a long time but haven't had the money. Getting it was completely unexpected and awesome.
 
LittleBigPlanet is the only gaming-related gift I received. It came from a friend of my mother's who I don't even know. And I already have it.
 
A bunch of stuff I picked up "For Christmas" earlier this year, so...

Phantasy Star Portable PSP(when Gamestop was selling it for $30, I mean... why not? $10 two-three weeks after launch? Sign me up)
Operation Darkness 360($10 at Best Buy, and I've been wanting to play it for a bit)
House of the Dead 2+3 Wii(just so I have a copy that works on HDTV's as the X-box version is finicky with the lightguns I have on my TVs now)
Quantum of Solace (cue GAFmeme.gif) 360
Enemy Territory: Quake Wars 360


A pre-order at Gamestop for Edgeworth's Game (Ace Attorney: Investigations: Mile's Edgeworth, basically) DS

and...

*Nintendo64kidlinkhere* MODERN WARFARE TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~~~~ (Which now is mostly for the multiplayer as I've done spec-ops/singleplayer and gotten the 1000gs/Plat from it :lol ) on PS3.

Not really an expensive Christmas, and most of these have been waiting for a couple of months for me to finally play them. But... :lol
 
What I got:

Radeon 5970 (yesssss!)

What I gave:

Left 4 Dead 2 (PC)
Oblivion GOTY (360)
Halo 3 ODST
EA Grand Slam Tennis
Animal Crossing (Wii)
 
2800 Microsoft Points! Was hoping for PS Store cash as well but hey - I'll take what I can get!

(I know it's not a lot but hey, it's easy to be psyched when it's all you want)
 
Got my best games haul in a long time, my wife was checking out my search history on best-game-price (price comparison site in UK) and collaborated with my mum and brother and law to get me this lot:

Assassin's Creed 2 (360)
Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction (PS3)
Disaster: Day of Crisis (Wii)
The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks (NDS)
Chrono Trigger (NDS)

I am very pleased indeed - Good spread across the consoles as well :)

A lot.


throw us a figure.

I'm 23, my family doesn't buy me games anymore because I'm self-sustaining (probably a lot more than self-sustaining, let's say, self-indulging). So I bought myself a nice gaming laptop (Asus G51VX) a month ago.

My jealousy rages pretty hard. Make sure to post some benchmark numbers in one of the PC threads.

I did get myself a new heatsink/fan so overclock here I come.
 
I've been rebuying games I used to own as a kid but haven't been able to bring myself to put down for the actual systems yet - got gifted a boxed and complete snes in good condition this morning... today will be a good day.

Games related, I gave someone Okami on the Wii.
 
Happy Christmas GAF!

I received:

Borderlands (360)

Assassins Creed 2 (360)

R&C: ACiT (PS3)

DJ Hero (360)

L4D2 (360)

I am a long time PC gamer but this is the first time since the late 90s I'll have the top end video card. I've been sticking to midrange stuff but with a gigantic new monitor to drive (2560x1440 res) I needed something major. :D
 
I got a sweet Bungie t-shirt, District 9 on Blu-ray (counts as gaming, it's got GoW III demo :P), and the big one: an Xbox Arcade I can take to college next year!
Awesome Christmas, in my book, hope you all have a great one too!
 
So far:

Left 4 Dead 2 (pc)
Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack In Time (ps3)
GTA Chinatown Wars (psp)
Gran Turismo (psp)
God of War: Chains of Olympus (psp)

The departed, star trek, it's always sunny christmas, gladitor, and the matrix on blu ray.

And lots of clothes.
 
I posted in the pickup thread, but so far I got:

PS3 Slim 120gb
New Super Mario Bros Wii
2 more motion +'s (total of 4 now)

I've got 2 more houses to stop at (parents/in-laws), so we'll see.
 
Everyone, please welcome my daughter to geekdom.
18057_261601573776_818843776_3121375_4410626_n.jpg

Her first video game system!
 
$70 in MS points and a $20 Gamestop gift card. I got Peggle Nights, the new Trials HD DLC, an indie game and caught up on most of the Rock Band songs I wanted. I'm happy!
 
Gave books, MSPs, and blu-rays, got cash. Oh, and a beast of a meal last night, I love having an uncle who used to be chef for the Assemblée Nationale (French Congress) :D

But I bought STALKER, Audiosurf, and Rainbow Six 3 thanks to the Steam sale. Waiting for today's deals to show up now.
 
Assassin's Creed 2. I haven't played any of the big releases this year so I'm pretty excited to give it a whirl.
 
hoping for a 1600 point card so i can buy Trials HD Big Pack. i'll find out in about an hour

otherwise just buying myself cheap stuff on Steam/GOG.

Fallout 1+2
Lucasarts Adventure Pack
Trials 2 SE

Sounds like you have a pretty awesome wife.

All I got gaming-wise was New Super Mario Bros., which I'm hoping will allow for some good co-op times.
 
My girlfriend bought me the following gaming items:

- Assassin's Creed 2 (360)
- Uncharted 2 (PS3)
- GamePro Holiday Issue

One dud. Can you guess which!?
 
My sisters boyfriend told her to get me Left 4 Dead 1 *facepalm* :D I am grateful anyway (plus she said she saved the receipt). I got a $30 gift card so I will have enough to buy Splinter Cell come 2010!
 
Dragon Age Origins (PS3), and LoZ: Spirit Tracks. I hope this second DS Zelda is good, I hated the first one. I've already started Dragon Age and its really good.
 
PS3: AssCreed 2, God of War Collection

Currently, I have a Panny 50v10 on backorder @ Best Buy. My parents are helping me pay for it so HOPEFULLY it comes in.
