    Default Early Christmas This Year - Here's What I Got....

    It was decided that my two younger sisters will go spend christmas with their grandparents this year, hence our family decided to have an early christmas here.

    Here's what I ended up getting in the way of games:

    GTA: San Andreas
    Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
    Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes
    Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life
    Sonic Mega Collection Plus(PS2)

    So far I've only been able to delve into the Sonic Mega Collection, very awesome that I ended up getting this, because aside from having lost my first Sonic game in a fire, my Genesis controller is seriously messed up almost to the point of being unusable. The extras are also very very cool.

    There's not really a point to this thread, other than to share what I got for christmas. This is the first time in a long while that I've gotten games for christmas, and I know my dad definately worked his ass off to make sure everyone got some nice presents this year, which I really appreciate.

    If anyone else happens to have to celebrate an early christmas for whatever reason, it would be great if you would please share whatever game-related gifts you ended up getting here.

    Alright, back to the games!

    My family refused to buy me any games so I'm buying them all myself this year.
    Currently catching up on PSN, WiiWare, Wii U E-Shop and Xbox Live Arcade exclusives I missed.

    I picked out most of my gifts, but haven't gotten them. Here is what I have gotten so far

    - Pac-Land for the TG-16 (boxed)
    - 2 ICP vinyls

    The suspense is killing me (just thinking about my complete DS collection).
    Somebody make me a "CGE 2k7 Attendee banner" so I don't have to use this lame text

    Well, I haven't really gotten anything for Christmas game-related yet (Secret Santa gift notwithstanding). I hope I did, though, because that's all I asked for!

    My parents are having their Christmas with my grandparents while I'm going to my boyfriend's house. So we had our family Christmas last night. I picked out the games but here's what I've gotten so far:

    <GAMES>
    Shining Soul 2 (gba)
    Bard's Tale (XboX)
    Shin Megami Nocturne (ps2)
    Shin Megami Nocturne Guide Book
    Clock Tower 3 (ps2)
    Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door (GameCube)
    </GAMES>

    The Davinci Code (Book)
    Chronicles of Narnia (Books)

    And since my birthday was the 13th, I got a lot of clothing, permed my hair and some spending cash to take to Disney World- which was my boyfriend's gift. Week at Disney. I ended up getting a real short sword from Medieval Times as well (restraunt with live Jousting Tournement and show in Orlando) (:

    I've had a good Holiday.

    I might be getting a DS from my dad among some other gaming stuff.

    Tomorrow i know i am getting DoA3 from my mom. But thats only because my brother ended up getting a GCN instead of an Xbox for his Xmas gift.

    You ever get stuck in CV Chronicles, give me a holler, I know that damn castle like it was my own!

    I got one main X-mas present earlier this week,, due to the size of the box, it was a pain to wrap it up, a classic PC for all the lovely Windows 95 and 98 games without any hassle of XP. I restored it, upgraded it, and it's so nice now. Only cost $60 shipped (thank you Ebay)
    These cartridges are dirty as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!

    i doubt ill get anything game related. my family sees my stuff and knows not what to buy for fear of duplication. thats what kind of sucks about having a big collection...holidays yeild minimal to no goodies that are game related, and junk store shopping usually yeilds initial excitement followed by disappointment. oh well...maybe ill be surprised.

    Yeah, great game. Anyways theirs a few boxes under the tree addressed to me. I tried gaving them a shake.. moved them around a bit... yet I still have no idea whats inside of them. I asked for either metroid prime 2, MGS 3 or KOTOR2 so hopefully it's one (or more) of those.
