    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! 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.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    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. 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.

    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.

    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.
