Your best Christmas Presents this year?

So what was everyone's best Christmas presents this year?

I had a few nice ones from my girlfriend. I got "The Orange Box" which is great as I can now play Portal and Team Fortress 2. I also got lots of cool Star Wars items to add to my collection, including a Star Wars Chess Set and 2008 annual! :lol: And also some nice clothes.

From my parents I got a load of useful car gadgets including electric pump, electric pressure gauge and some other things.

Also got loads of Chocolate which I couldn't face eating if I even wanted to today. :lol:

I got socks, a hoodie, a fleece, a DVD player (killed mine a week b4 christmas) and the Hogfather on DVD. The best was teh Hogfather (although i haven't seen it yet).

I got 300 on BD, COD4 on PS3, Blade Runner 5-disk Tin, Mothership 2-cd, smellies from my daughter, money, cheques, and sweeties

Ahh the best, would have had to have been Assassin's Creed.

Just the usual socks and pants (I don't know why the f*** these have to be wrapped up as xmas presents), a cd, a couple of games, lots of chocolates, money, a voucher for HMV (I hope these can be used online - I am scared of shops)

I can't say I am even one bit excited. I even waited till boxing day to open them.

Oh, I did get a new chair as well, which I suppose is good. This is obviously to replace the new one which i got a couple of years ago, which broke about 6 months after I got it (too much leaning back on it), so I ended up reverting to the old chair which I got in 1997/8 which is falling apart but which I still find more comfortable.

Now I will look into geting myself a new HiFi system and a new pair of shoes :)

Got World in Conflict (PC) from my girlfriend, which is a great gift. Looking forward to start playing it when I get back home. :thumbs: Did also get the English version of Lord of the Rings (second-hand from the 70's) and a new ashtray, along with the usual socks and a sweater. And last but not least, an Iron Maiden live album.

GH3 on Xbox from my mum as well as a couple books on fishing and bikes.
Got Lewis Hamiltons book from the missis!

That was about it! my mum took us food shoping just before xmas too! that was £130 worth!

The wife also got Lego Star wars complete saga! for Wii

World in Conflict is a great game with some amazing special effects and some realistic graphics.

Was that the animated film of the Fellowship of the Ring?

I've got a special limited edition version of that film and it is a very nice film. Shame it was never continued to complete the trilogy.

Hey, I also got Assassin's Creed for christmas. Also got and egg boiler, a popcorn maker and assorted clothing. No socks this year, surprisingly.

We do alot of people always tend to get jumpers and tshirts for christmas? Of all the things I need, they would be most useful, and I end up with socks. At least I have some money now so I might be able to buy a new coat as my flece seems to have mysteriously dissapeared.

I only got one thing, and that is the Silent Möbius collection (Anime) from my gf. My parents don't buy me presents anymore and vice versa. It was the same thing every year, so some years ago, we simply stopped buying each other presents.

That is a little sad to only get one present. :(

I like buying my parents presents so I can see their faces opening them. I managed to get some great books for them both this year which they both loved. :) But it is more fun with presents for my gf. She is very good as guessing what is in any wrapped present so I have to keep coming up with more genius methods of hiding what they really are each year. Last year I wrapped jewellery up in a present, and then put it into a huge box and wrapped that up. She didn't guess it. And this year she thought she had a board game for her main present as it was the only one under the tree, but i had hidden her real present in her Christmas stocking hanging on the side and she hadn't guessed anything was in it until I said she should look. ;)

Didn't get many presents but I was quite pleased with what I did get - a spiffy Norwich City sweatshirt and a couple of old season review videos, The Wombats album (which is great), the Mock The Week DVD (which is totally ace), and a couple of other bits.

Most Hurtful Present Of The Year Award: A shower gel/deodrant set from one of my friends - I think she's trying to tell me something...

Not as bad as my sister. She bought me a shower gel/deodorant Lynx set, which I have to say she does every year, but then I had another present from her and it was exactly the same. So she had bought me two lots this year!

Yeah I got the Lynx one, too... I didn't get two sets though, thankfully ;)

I got the Vice set from my daughter.... Which was sweet (I let her off because she is only 2 years old)

I got smellys again from the sis in law! got some last year too!

I still haven't used them from 2 xmas ago either! I tend to stick with lynx.

Bah the smellies....I say if you dont have any good ideas, just give me music vouchers! Scored 12 cds this year!
