Get any video games for Christmas?

So far I've already received a Pelican wireless controler for the Xbox and Red Faction II for the Xbox. My supervisor surprised me with this gift.

My boss, boss gave me a $50 gift certificate to Fry's that will probably go toward games.

I'm sure my relatives will hook me up with some more games on Christmas Day.


What did you guys get?

Did you give anyone games for gifts?

Christmas day for me too, but I already know what I'm getting: FFX-2, Pikmin (I've been wanting this one for a while, but never picked it up) and Neverwinter Nights.

I created the Amazon wish list, so no surprises for me.

I was thinking the same thing. But I have already had a Christmas party with work and one with friends, so you never know.

But today is my Birthday, so I am hoping for Top Spin or the GC broadband adapter. :UP:

I got a BB gift card earlier this week from my Sister which went towards Mario & Luigi.

I am hoping for something "old school" tonight.

Probably nothing. I have so many games that my family is probably confused as to which games I actually own I do anticipate the yearly DVD or two.

Possibly PGR2, but I don't know for sure. It wasn't way up high on the list compared to other things.

I picked up Mario Kart and an extra Wavebird with my Xmas bonus a few days ago.

I'm hoping for Crimson Skies and Rebel Strike from my family.

I'm pretty sure I'll be opening up an XBox on Christmas Day, then finally I can use that XBox Live gamer tag.

I opened my presents that I received from co-workers when they gave them to me at the office xmas party. My family is weird, though, we open our presents on Christmas Eve, which was cool when I was a child because I got my presents (except the ones from Santa) before all my friends.

well I am probably getting a Best Buy gift card from a couple of people, so I see a game or two in my future. Then again, there isn't really a whole lot that I want right now.

I got an X-Box too.

Along w/ Desert Storm, the Sega GT/JRSF I bought from CC last week for 1 cent.Oh yeah, I also got the Halo 2 preview disc w/ the extra controller from Best Buy.

The X-Box is my first system since the Sega Genesis back from '91. I've been holding back.

And to think, I was just playing sega yesterday.
