Game related Christmas Gifts

So I figure we could get the topic rolling (I'm really excited). This is the first year I've not told my wife something I specifically wanted, and she went somewhat crazy. She admitted she had no idea what game to get, knowing full well I'm happy with anything, so I guessing she went the action figure route for a majority of it.



With that, what did you all ask for Christmas? Or did you pick something up for yourself?



I'll be back with pictures late the 25th or sometime the 26th.



Marry Christmas and happy holidays!!!

  • Mostly games and money is what I asked for xmas. Only thing different is the disney dvds I asked for. I know a lot of what I got for xmas as I helped my mum find cheapest places to buy them, lol. I also collected a lot of them myself from others who were selling them on facebook. But I admit I can't remember them all so no doubt I will be surprised at some things.



    And it's my birthday on the 12th day of xmas, so I know I'm getting Binary Domain for that as I pointed it out to mum in Tescos and she bought it XD
  • Well we were in town sorting out presents, I knew I wanted a game of some sort, but I only recently got Max Payne 3 and none of the new releases have really caught my eye. We went into GAME as I wanted at least one GAME as a present so I had a look around. There were some reasonable prices for games Tekken Tag 2 & the new Hitman for £20. Playstation All-Stars went back up to £30 which put me off.



    I then just bought a present for my stepdad and was about to walk out the store - then I saw Xenoblade Chronicles for £15! This game still goes online for around £40. I only just got a Wii in the summer to play this, The Last Story & Pandora's Tower, I already had the Special Editions of the other two, this one wasn't a special edition, but all that comes with is a Wii Joypad - which I don't need. I really wasn't expecting to get this as I've already got a lot of other stuff (apparently ) So I didn't want to ask for a £40+ game ontop of that, but having that there for £15 was just perfect - can't wait to crack it open and play it

    I got the Xenoblade Chronicles with Pad, new for £10 in gamestation when they were having the liquidation sale



    But yeah, good game, and hard to get cheap.

  • UDF Press kit and MGS 4 Annerversairy Edition. Plus a load of Blu ray steels and the Inception breifcase LE.
  • What's the difference between the original MGS4 and the new anniversary one?

    Very little. A poster, new cover art, no MGS Online as the servers have been shut down and all patches on disc.

    Anniversary Edition includes the trophy support (update released earlier this year) and new box art (IMO nicer than original)...
  • Yeah defiantly nicer art and it has the newer style spine which I prefer.
  • So basically just cover art and a poster? The trophy patch came this year anyway so you don't need the new version for it.
  • Pretty much. Still good price as you get a new copy. Not worth upgrading to though.

    Actually print on disc is also a little different than in original relase

    Wow, a big haul...lucky.



    Tangled is a great movie. It was on tv today in the UK. I want the J n D hd set too...didn't know there was a ratchet one. Also, is that obscure aftermath different to 1 and 2?
  • From what I understand, Obscure Aftermath is the same as 2, but with extra features.
  • Late Christmas arrival... but he's still amazing!!!








  • Oh man that Tonberry is cool. I got my 4 y/o a Cactaur. He loves it.
