Ok so we usually get a gluttony of videogames, videogame consoles, accessories etc... for Christmas. Let us know what you got!

I have yet to open presents yet so I'll post what I got later

Nothing, but since I usually just buy whatever game I want myself, it's not a big deal.

Welcome brother.

I rarely get games at Xmas because I wait for deals, but I did get a 4000 points XBLA card, which I needed.

Ended up getting Assasin's Creed Brotherhood. Also have a ton of Amazon GC's, so Amazon is going to be my bitch for awhile.

I think the last game that I got as a gift for Christmas was Goonies II for the NES. I don't bother telling people that I want games any longer and just buy them for myself as I know I won't get them as a gift. People ask you want you want and then you tell and then they think to themselves that games are a waste of time and buy you a pocketknife instead.

This is the first year since I was given the original NES that I didn't get any games for Christmas. Which is good, because I didn't ask for any and I have a nearly 40 game backlog as it is.

Got a number of books that I had really, really wanted.

al_bundy 12-25-10 05:11 PM

Re: Official "videogames I got for Xmas" thread!

Burnout Paradise for the PS3. I've been wanting it for a couple of years.

I won't ask for games if they are more than $20-30 new. And with few exceptions I'll never spend more than that for myself on a game either.

Re: Official "videogames I got for Xmas" thread!
 
Fable III, Fallout New Vegas, Halo Reach, and I bought myself Resonance of Fate. Two of those were bought by me for someone else to wrap for me, since I found the best prices.
My boy got Kirbys Epic Yarn, Bowsers Inside Story, Phineas and Ferb, and Lego Battles.
We also got the Kinect and Sports, Dance, and Your Shape for early Christmas a few weeks back.

Wireless keyboard for RB3; gift cards for Best Buy and GameStop.

I received 2 PS Move Controllers and Sports Champion, The Shoot, and the Singstar Dance pack from HouseParty.com, so I had my "party" today.

I was gifted the Reach, Red Dead, Killzone 2, and God of War collection I bought myself on Black Friday. :D

I was surprised by RB3 and keyboard, Mariokart wii, and Kinect + Sports and Joy Ride.

I never get given games for presents. Folks know I've probably bought everything already. I got a Kinect for the family along with Dance Central and Kinectimals. Gave my daughter Alice in Wonderland for the DS and Santa brought her Lego Harry Potter for the DS. Gave my wife Just Dance 2 in her stocking, put my unopened copy of Gran Turismo 5 in mine.
My mom got me an Amazon gift card, which I might use for Kinect Sports. The nurse practitioner I employ knows I'm into games (I advise her 15 year old son regularly) and got me a Halo 3 Messenger bag (which is kinda cool, I guess) and some Mega Block Spartan action figure set (which I thought was a rather strange gift to give a man in his forties, but whatever).

Just a DSi to replace my son's DS Lite (which worked out amazingly after I sold the Lite on eBay for $110 and got the DSi on sale at Target for $129).
