Well boys, here we are again

Share your gifts here, deals, and stories from Holiday gaming. Doesn't matter how old we get, it truly is the most wonderful time of the year!

Always told myself I'd stop playing vids when I was 30.




I'm 30.

Let me channel my inner Dabo to complain.

I hate Christmas. Love the idea, but not the execution.

In addition, it is the time of year I swim in the flood of Bad Parents pretend to be Good Parents.

I'm deserving of children. Holidays are hard with the SO, it is also beginning to affect me as well. We start IVF this upcoming April, once she finishes clinicals.

Done with the will.

Hopefully after all the formalities, we can all relax, drink a case of Redbull and give into something.

Next Holiday Season should be special. I addition to both the new PS and XBOX consoles, I believe Nintendo updates the Switch in some fashion. This time with performance as the target over battery life.

Best of luck with IVF, I know that can be frustrating to say the least. I hope the new year brings you many blessings my man.

What have you been playing lately?

My grandmother is 87 and still plays Ms. Pacman like it's going out of style.

I fully plan on playing video games until I drop dead.

I'm not sure any Christmas gift surpassed the excitement of being 9 and getting my first gaming system..a Sega Master System. My first games were Hangon, Safari Hunt, Choplifter, Outrun, Quartet, and F16 Fighting Falcon.

Scruffy’s grandfather was the first person to show him video games.

He could beat everyone in Dr. Mario and Tetris.

Play until you die.

Son got sonic Mario olympics rio 2020 and marvel ultimate alliance 3 on switch. We got a new xbox cause I think my power cord crapped out, so I’ll fix that later, CME with Jedi fallen order. Also got kingdoms hearts 3, but we can’t find where we hid it yet.

I remember getting the original Nintendo with super Mario Brothers and Ghosts and Goblins almost 35 years ago.

I used to play EvE with an 88 year old millionaire original MS developer (had single digit Microsoft employee number). He was undergoing cancer treatment and married a 33 year old Chinese woman and was starting a canoe manufacturing business in China (for their domestic market not export to USA, seems China at the time was booming in outdoors stuff).

Old Ray mainly mined and manufactured in EvE but would get in there and pvp too.

The only game I got was Assassin's Creed Rebel Collection for the switch. Might be the first Switch game I play exclusively in handheld.
