A Gamer's Christmas - Page 2

Two days before Christmas I won a new Playstation 3 Slim which was a nice Christmas bonus, but I'll be sticking the ugly sonuvabitch downstairs so I don't have to look at it and it will allow for another Blu-Ray player in the house.

For Christmas I got DJ Hero: Renegade Edition which was an awesome present and a lovely surprise. I then went out and bought Left 4 Dead 2 with my Christmas monies as I rented it and loved it when it first came out.

From the Steam sale I've bought the Battlefield 2 Collection, Indigo Prophecy, Braid, Super ID Software Pack, Unreal Deal, Beyond Good and Evil, Audiosurf, Grand Theft Auto IV, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Deus Ex: Game of the Year Edition.

Heh, bloody nice mate

I bought myself Brutal Legend a few weeks ago and gave it to Jen to wrap for me.

Also got a couple of bottles of beer that I bought myself in Tesco a week ago.

Proper Dad now...

I got Just Dance on the Wii for some funky lounge simulation fun!

(As if I need any excuse to be boogying around the house

)

Mine and Jingos' nights out are going to start becoming competative!

James bought the Orange Box for a friend we childmind for and two copies came through the post

Invoiced for one, packaging/paperwork says one but there were two! So he's counting that as a present from Santa

Ok, I'm not really a gamer but I am a Nintendo fangirl and have owned every one of their consoles and handhelds. Always held off getting a Wii, first couldn't afford it, then was too busy but secretly wanted one!

Phil bought me one this Xmas as a total surprise

Games I have so far:

Mario Kart
Sports and Sports Resort
Super Mario Bros
Rabbids Go Home (I love this!)

Plan to get Wii Play and Zelda, and just got reminded of Let's Dance too which may have to be purchased

Please add me as a Wii friend

I have to say that it looks far prettier than the 360!

I can't recommend Zelda enough

Super Mario Galaxy, RE4 are also some truly fantastic gaming experiences; I'm sure you'll love the sports/resorts also (Sword fighting

)

Enjoy

Xbox 360 Elite with MW2, RB2, Forza 3, Halo ODST, Lego Batman, Pure, and Assassins Creed 2 for PS3. Been ages since I played Rock Band. Really missed it.

Pumpkinstew · 27-12-2009, 13:23

I put a load of 360 games on my Amazon wishlist and everyone just bought me books.

I did splash out a bit in the Steam sale though - KOTOR, Indigo Prophecy/Fahrenheit (My PS2 version kept freezing onme and I never finished) and Terror from th Deep, which is keeping me sane on my netbook at the inlaws

Absolutely nothing so far game-wise, but I do have lots of monies sitting in my account now, so will likely look to pick up some bargains from the past that I've missed, as well as pre-ordering pretty much everything I want for the next couple of months

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
