Christmas time, mistletoe and wine. Apparently. We much prefer the presents, to be honest (though some of those are wine), so that’s what we’re discussing today. Well, we’re declaring what we’ve been given for Christmas, anyway, so go ahead and make your comments, tell us what you’ve got, and we can ‘discuss’ who has the most fruitful Christmas day.

Alright, so this isn’t really much of a discussion, but it’s nice to see who’s got the best games/presents. Remember though: If your Nan gives you something that isn’t a game or, worse, is Avatar: The Game, don’t be too angry, she can’t help it. Just smile and nod along, then tell us so we can all laugh at you.

  1. The wife got me a BMW M3 and F1 driving experience and tickets to see Jimmy Carr live… She did well!


  2. Hotel Chocolat stuff! Books! Marc Ecko Ts! Vouchers! Some hardware to review for TSA!


  3. We tend not to exchange gifts in our household, Nevertheless i did receive a Dukla Trencin scarf from a foreign friend, Bloody spectacular it is too.


    • It seems a lot of people have not got caught up in the hype this year and left gift-exchanging to a minimum. I suppose it is good that some people appreciate Christmas for what it is really meant to be e.g. family time. However I really do like getting presents. :)


  4. I got 3 pairs of slippers, 6 cans of deodorant, some socks, GAME & BB vouchers and Brutal Legend :D


  5. Got nothing gaming related which is why I treated myself on Christmas Eve to re-purchasing Killzone 2 & getting Burnout Paradise on download


  6. Assassin’s Creed 2 from my dad and Modern Warfare 2 from TSA’s very own Davs so far. Sadly my stuff from my mum got held up at Amazon so I won’t have much from her (aside from a few freebie books she got from work so I had something to open) until the New Year when I’m next over her way. Oh well, Christmas day was lovely with the family. Played with my two cousins a lot which seemed to make them happy. What else really matters?


  7. EyePet, a DVD, Some jumpers/tops, a phone, a Man Utd beer glass with mats and towel and a little toy that makes fart noises.


    • Oh, I also treated myself to a couple o PSN games and Smackdown vs Raw 2010 (which I hope arrives on Tuesday)…. and then in a week or so its my Bday so I can start all over again :D
