"Unofficial Christmas List"? What would make it more official? :?

Aaaanyway... I don't know what I want, really. I would've said a Wii, but I decided to get the Gamecube version of Zelda Twilight Princess so now I don't really want one. I wouldn't mind a larger T.V; after playing FFXII I felt my T.V is only sapping the games beauty with its puny sized screen.

The new MG Strike Freedom model kit would be nice. Hopefully the wings are easier to put together this time. ;_;

And an Xbox 360 controller so I don't have to play PSU on a keyboard.

Calling a thread unoffical makes its sound cooler 😛

Money. From Dad, a PS3 come Feb-March.

Money is typically all I ask for.

Things I really want for Christmas but will probably not get at all.

XBOX 360 (the $400 version)
Smackdown VS Raw 2007 (willing to try something new here)
Gears of War (ditto)
Marvel Ultimate Alliance
(will probably end up as a rental for judgment, SEGA has disappointed me for the umpteenth time)

OR

A videocard for this computer
A toolkit for my computer
Half Life 2 Episode 1 (see SDvR comment)
Sonic Riders (interesting in getting this game)
Marvel Ultimate Alliance

OR

Playstation 2
Kingdom Hearts 2
Marvel Ultimate Alliance
Smackdown vs Raw 2007
Mortal Kombat: Armageddon
(I like MK)

OR

Another computer (wishful thinking here)

OR

Tickets to an event (specially if it's a wrestling event)

Things I really don't want for Christmas, don't want to get but still be thankful for them

Gift cards
Money

Things I really don't want for Christmas but will probably end up getting.

Clothes
T-shirts
Wallets
Socks

OR worse

A big helping of NOTHING!

Zelda: Twilight Princess for GameCube, and a second wired Xbox 360 controller, so I don't always have to switch my current one between my main system and my laptop. And maybe the USB cable to connect my cell phone to my PC.

I don't really have that big of a list this year for some reason. Most of the games that would interest me won't be out until next year anyway, and I already broke down and bought Satriani Live myself. Strangely enough, I actually wouldn't mind some clothes, as my wardrobe could use some expansion, but I'd prefer to pick those out myself.

Oh, one other possibility would be both Pirates of the Caribbean movies. Being a pathetic latecomer, I only just saw the first movie last week. Heh. Good stuffs though, so I wouldn't mind owning the DVD.

I feel like a pretentious, holier-than-thou jerk for saying this, but I don't want much of anything.

Well, that's not entirely true. But if you really want to give me something, you could drop a little something in my paypal account...

You and me both. I did the kodak moment thing with the brats when they asked me. "I got you guys, I don't need anything else."

AWWWW!

Then Corky said he could con his @#%$ of a grandmother outta GH1 for me so I told him to go for it.

I'm a horrible, horrible influence.

All I want this Christmas is to be with Trishie, and I'm getting that <3

I suppose if we're talking material possessions, then the EB pre-order special edition of Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin with the booklet, case and CD <3

It's about the only thing I want which I cannot obtain myself.

Anything else, I will or have bought myself :p

For Christmas I would love to win the lottery and pay off my debt for college. That's a really big fantasy of mine. =P

Really all I want is just a new MP3 player to replace my old one that broke, and a new printer. The one I currently have is like 6 years old and keeps jamming and killing off trees from me having to reprint all the time.

Seeing as how I will have bought a wii out of my own money, I don't really need much.

I know I'm getting money, so I'll probably be spending it on some of this...

- Dead Rising (360)
- Red Steel (Wii)
- Super Monkey Ball (Wii)
- Phantasy Star Universe (360)

Can't think of anything else to buy. Like I said, I'll have bought all I really need before christmas.

External Hard Drive.
Beer.

Maybe a Drawing Board if I get round to asking for one. Not a tablet, got one of those, I want a nice angled board with a built in ruler. It would be too much hassle to steal one from my old high school.

$50 was my Christmas limit too! But did you get the FOOD BANK TURKEY? That's like the cadillac of the welfare Christmas. We totally stood in line for two hours once for the damn thing.

Anyways, This year I get to spend time in England with Lee which is a great gift already, especially because he paid for the ticket. My dad and I will exchange Christmas greetings and if I'm lucky he'll pay my $40 T-mobile bill this December. My friends typically buy me mini-bottles of semi-expensive liquor and maybe my best friend will get me a faceplate for my phone, mine's looking pretty worn.

Hm...hard to say since my parents haven't bought me or my sis a Christmas present in years. We don't have anything against that, we just haven't officially celebrated Christmas in a while (ya know, no trees to decorate, don't even know what eggnog tastes like, whatever).

Christmas to my parents are either having a party wih friends or just relaxing from work (since both of their biological clocks are ticking), so there isn't anything I want........

....Just Zelda: TP and Okami.

There is not a chance that I would ever get a console for Christmas. Just too expensive. Years ago, my family got the Gamecube, as a present to me AND my three siblings.

Now I have to take my console destiny into my own hands...

Flying home for the Christmas holiday is going to be enough of a present for me :^^ god knows it's expensive enough

You know considering the amount of time some games take to play, a few hundred dollars for months of entertainment doesn't seem too steep ;o

All I'm asking for this year is money - I'm buying most of the stuff beforehand out of my own bank account and the money I get will refund it! I'm such an entrepreneur. That said, I have asked for a DVD from my uncle - mainly because by the time I thought of buying it the first order had already been dispatched. It should save me money this way anyway.

For the interested, the DVD is Tenacious D The Complete Masterworks. Yes, they are my current obsession! How observant of you.

Weeellll, I guess the only thing I will ask for is the Wii with the Classic controller, an extra remote and nunchuck, and TLoZ: TP. And if I actually do get this, it will be quite the mile stone because my parents have never fully payed for a system (the only time they've payed for any system was when they payed for half of my DS).

EDIT: Actually, my parents have been acting very anti-video games lately, so they said they won't buy me a Wii, so they made me make a new list, which is as follows:

Video Games:
-Final Fantasy XII

DVDs:
-The Complete Matrix
-Aqua Teen Hunger Force Volume 1,2, or 4 (already have Vol. 3)
-My Neighbor Totoro

CDs:

-Songs for Christmas by Sufjan Stevens
-Oh, Inverted World by The Shins
-Coquelicot Asleep in the Poppies: A Variety of Whimsical Verse by of Montreal

A passport, and round-trip tickets to see my g/f in Essex.
*whine*
That's all I want.

EDIT: What the heck do they mean, new forumer? Geez, leave for a couple of years and even the system forgets you. :p

Hmm. I typically enjoy giving out presents more than I enjoy receiving them. I don't really want or need anything, either ^^;

Though if I had to make a list....
~ Prismacolor pencils. 3
~ Broadway piano books
~ My right ear pierced again

On the game front, the only one I'm interested in at the moment is Twilight Princess, and my mom's had the GC version preordered since June 2005 :3

Like Craig mentioned though, the best gift I can think of is spending Christmas with him. ^^

Hmm, if I could get anything for Christmas, it'd be enough money to permanently pay off the debts I currently have. Anyway, on a more realistic basis...

An Electric Guitar Jam Lab USB from ThinkGeek. They are AWESOME.
Possibly Red Steel for Wii, as I already have a console and TP pre-order. >>
Azumanga Daioh full set DVDs. (I have it downloaded, but DVD quality beats the stuffing out of what I have)
Some more DS games =D
Resources with which to learn to drive
Resources to acquire and maintain a vehicle
Enough spare cash for a trip over to the US
Assorted other anim and manga merchandise I can't afford ;_;

That's about it. =P There are one or two other things, but I'm not mentioning them here =D

$50 was my Christmas limit too!

Mine was and is $100.
You can't buy what I really want for Christmas (Let's hope that pulls through, shall we?) but I guess I'll ask for some new strings and a wah.

Hmm... I'm hoping for teh monies, and some one to pay for a haircut. My mullet is growing back. <<

Of course, there's a rather large list of things I want to get, but I wont because it would cost lots of money. However, I am FINALLY getting a laptop (Whoo-hoo!), which will hopefully run Phantasy Star Universe, which is all I need as my social life WILL dissapear. :D

I'm hoping for a new keyboard (the musical kind), as my current one is on its last legs and doesn't have a proper midi out.

In no particular order:
+ Mike Oldfield Platinum - 2CD best of with the longer version of "Moonlight Shadow"
+ Inspector Rex Series 2 - Austrian police dog show with one of the world's cutest Alsatians (except perhaps my friend's old police dog, Jack)
+ Mysterieuses Cites D'Or coffret 5 DVD - since I've given up hope that there'll ever be an English language release, it's time for me to brush up my French
+ Ice Age 2
+ Tubular Bells 1
+ Songs of Distant Earth - the Mike Oldfield CD, not the book
+ The Life & Times of Scrooge McDuck - Don Rosa
+ The Life & Times of Scrooge McDuck Companion - Don Rosa
+ Disney Presents Carl Barks' Greatest DuckTales Stories Volume 1 - Carl Barks
+ Disney Presents Carl Barks' Greatest DuckTales Stories Volume 2 - Carl Barks
+ Aramis / Athos stuffed toys (large) - alas, they no longer stock Dogtanian or Porthos :(
+ Quack Pack R1 DVD
+ Muppet Xmas Carol CD soundtrack

I might get vouchers and stuff for soft furnishings and things, since I just moved into a new flat.

When I want the Wii (which I will!) I'll buy it myself. Ditto for a new laptop, as my old one is Win 98 SE and is therefore on its last legs.

My parent's have a $100 limit per kid... atleast this year. Last year I got an iPod, but that was a really special gift.

This year I asked for either Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain, or Pirates of the Carribean 2... and possibly a new cell phone... I'm getting a digital camera from my Grandparents...This one, to be exact...

Oh, and I'll probably get an new shavor...woot
