Oldest is getting Mario Wonder
Youngest is getting the Bluey Game

I'm certain both of those will lead to many hours of family time.

We haven't decided who's getting these yet:
ToTK Zelda amiibo
Set of Temu knockoff Zelda joycons
Temu knockoff Splatoon pro controller

We usually give the middle kid the newest Just Dance but last year's version hasn't been played as much so maybe we'll skip a year and get that again next year.

Got my oldest a PS5. Middle son already has a Series X and Gamepass. He didn't ask for any gaming stuff this year. Daughter doesn't game.

Haven't gotten myself anything gaming-wise for Christmas since RDR2.

I’m 37 and usually my brother and I both get a game for each other to play together but we both got Game Pass in last year so that dynamic has changed some, I’ve dropped a few hints to the wife about things I may want so we will see!

Last year she got me a Backbone so I have played some Xbox stuff with that and really enjoy that as a change of pace.

Also looking forward to Christmas Noobs tomorrow in MW3 ????

Microsoft hasn't announced a lot of games coming to Game Pass in January yet. May mean a bunch of ABK games will hit the service.

Setting up a small game room for my kids. 65" tv with sound bar, subwoofer and RGB backlights. Gonna mount our Xbox One on the wall beside the TV and put together a futon couch for them to sit on. Right now they thing I'm just setting up an office for my wife. The TV is up, but I haven't moved the Xbox in there yet. That'll be tonights project. Also created a new Xbox live handle for them.


I bought myself a new Xbox x that I'll put on my main tv

Last night I got a copy of Mortal Kombat from my brother which will be fun, used to love those back in the day

This morning the wife got me a 1TB expansion card for Xbox Series X which is much needed and a handheld that resembled a gameboy but has like 200 roms of NES games, will be fun for trips for sure


Hope everyone has an amazing day! Merry Christmas!

My wife surprised me with a PS5. I didn't ask for it nor did I even have it on my mind. But i've been enjoying the hell out of it. Props to the wife on that idea.

Got an Atari Gamestation Pro as a gift, which is turning out to be a good emulator box.

OTOH, my SIL gave her oldest son a PS5 and one of her daughters an Infinity game table. The concept on the latter is cool but the price is $1000. WTF.

What is a real person’s review on the infinity table?

Nothing.. I’m almost 36 I don’t get gifts. But, I also didn’t buy myself anything.

Still mad I missed The Outer Worlds Spacer’s Choice Edition and Saints Row + DLC for free on Epic. Was traveling and just didn’t know to even redeem them from my phone.

I did get A Plague Tale: Innocence for free though.
