Post all the video game stuff you get for Christmas!

(posting this now because I know some people open gifts on Christmas Eve)
 
Got a bunch of stuff from my gaming buddies on steam. (Just Cause 2, BF2, BFBC2, Fallout New Vegas)
Might have more stuff from the wife and kids in the morning!
 
I got Uncharted: Drakes Fortune from my mom. It was nice because I had never gotten around to snagging it. Now I just have to budget some time to actually play it lol. She still wont tell me how she managed to pick out a good game that I happened to not have... I think the Freemasons were somehow involved.
 
Got a kinect, a third monitor and enough money/giftcards to buy a 6950 for eyefinity baby! lol

Incorrect, you obtained a new gaming setup :) :cool: CONGRATS

edit. I'm on the west coast and won't be opening gifts until tomorrow. First year in my entire life I have not asked for any games. I did however request a Wheel Stand Pro for my wheel for Forza 3 and Forza 4 for next year :) I expect nothing, I expect my family, food and memories but if I get gifts then RAD!

edit. I blew like $800 on my wife, lol. She's worth more, I just couldn't justify it.
double edit. A chunk of that was gaming stuff, she games :)

i went the other way and have a kid on the way. 3 months preg now, but next is house. I will never kissing gaming goodbye. I'll have my room/closet, to get away and play those games.

anyways. Got fable 3, Killzone 2 and bought myself bc2 vietnam.
 
I got Playstation Move from the wife, Just need to look into getting some games that use it. Maybe get back into MAG.
 
My wife bought me a couple of games & a Mcdonalds Frappe lol I got myself around 15 games on Steam & bought 2 more to Donate :)
 
I change that. My gaming clan gave me Amnesia Dark Descent on steam christmas woooooo! Hellsgamers FO-EV-VER!
 
Halo: Reach
NFS Hot Pursuit
1600 point Live card
Just Cause 2

The last one doesn't really count as a present since I bought it off Steam a couple of days ago but I've been putting so much time into it.
 
Kinect Sports....OMG am I sore this morning haha (those hurdles are killer)!

Also played some of the Your Shape: Fitness Evolved game. I am now convinced that you can actually get in semi-decent shape playing Kinect. Wii Fit is a joke compared to this stuff.
 
I bought a bunch of inexpensive games on Steam for myself...

and... am prepping for Sandy Bridge :D! Probably going to get a Gigabyte P67A-UD5, Intel i7 2600K, and a new set of 2x 4GB DDR3 sticks (8gb total) for my setup (plus a $10 bracket to make my Xigmatek S1283 work with it ;)).

Hopefully will end up 5ghz+ from the look of things, plus a healthy 15%+ IPC boost at same clocks... = YUM!
 
A couple of Polk monitor series 40 speakers, SB Titanium HD sound card and a Yamaha amp

Heeeeheee!

Also some gems I missed for like dirt cheap on steam...Mirror's Edge, Wings of Prey, and Amnesia The Dark Decent
 
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood for the Xbox

...most of my gifts were non-gaming related this year, so that's about it.

I bought Kirby's Epic Yarn as a gift for someone though :)
 
Xbox 360 250 gig console, Halo: Reach, Mass Effect 2, Gears 2 and Splinter Cell: Conviction. Plus today I went out and picked up Mass Effect and Fallout: New Vegas with the Christmas money.
 
Got the Corsair HS1 headset. Can't decide if I like them or not.

Edit: OK, I like them. They took some getting used to after using a pair of Sennheiser HD570 open-air headphones. I had to boost the base just a bit, but after that they have been quite nice.
