Title: Christamas is here what games did you get?
Post by: animecyberrat on December 25, 2005, 05:18:11 AM
I was dissaponted this Christams, I got three things I specificaly asked NOT to get, clothes shoes and socks. I asked for Mallrats and instead got Jay and Silent Bob Do Degrassi (stupid peopel and mixed communication)

Then I asked for some games and I knew no one would rememebr teh names of teh games so I made a list. All in all I got 2 games and 1 thing I didnt ask for  a Carry case to hold my GBA/DS games, a real bonus but not enough to make up for teh crap.

So anyways I opened my presents and what games did I get Sonic Rush for DS (major Sega/Sonic fan so yeah!)
and Prince of Persia WW (OK now this game not only wasnt on my list but I have teh original sega cd game and always complain how much it sucks, so therefore I never had any intentions of playing the new ones)

Its like this everyyear I always mention specificaly what games I want and end up getting something I either never asked for or wouldnt play for nothing. Now I have to play it cuz it wa a christmas present so I am stuck cuz I watched the G4 Icons of teh series and it got me mildly interested but I want to play them in order so is it worth it to wait until I have sands of time and then get to WW or is WW good enough I wouldnt notice if I just jumped right in?

Ok osrry my topic is confusing I wante dto see what eevry ody else got at teh same time ask if this game is worth playing or if id be better off trading it in when noone is looking?

Teh carry case was worth it though cuz I have been needing something to hold my games in and not lose them. So Merry Christams to everyone and hope yours went better than mine, and pray no ones went worse.

I got:
Mario Golf:Toadstool Tour
Mega Man Anniversary Collection (the button config is confusing and stressful)
Midway Arcade Treasures 3 (I missed some of these games on my N64)
Namco Museum 50th Anniversary Collection
Sonic Gems Collection

I must say that I am happy. I need to find somewhere to get the Hori Digital Controller (preferably off-line)

I had a pretty good Christmas.  Finally got Mario Kart DS and NFL Street 2.  I usually wouldn't want shoes either, but I got some NICE 85 dollar Adidas a3's.  Got a Memory Card 1019...and uh...yeah, that's it.  I'm pretty happy .

I'll be purchasing a GB Player and an Action Replay to see Ada with no skirt and change Ashley's booby size in RE4.

IceCold, I love the compilations because it contains a bunch of these games on consoles buried in the closet or the console doesn't work

That's the Thanksgiving answer.  You're a month late.

No games, but I did get a whole new kitchen (new microwave, 32 piece dish set, glassware, silverware, towels and pot holders). Just what I needed. Best Buy has Gun on sale for $29.99 today. I might pick that up.

I did buy some games for my nephews for Christmas. Even though they are for the PS2 - I'll tell you what they were: Lego Star Wars and Psychonauts. The oldest (he's 8) also received a new "hot rod red" DS with Mario Kart DS and Sonic Rush. I'll tell you what, I'm really feeling that red DS. I want one for myself (actually, I took it home to charge last night since he didn't bring his charger with him - that and I wanted to play Sonic, LOL).

animecyberrat: I don't understand why you're so disappointed with your Christmas presents. From reading your post, it looks to me like you received some great things. I know I'm probably twice your age (I'll be 30 next month), but trust me - there will come a day when you appreciate a gift of clothing, socks and shoes (and for the record, when I was a kid - I hated any gift that wasn't a toy or a game). Anyways - the games you did get are solid titles that I'm sure will give you at least a few weeks of enjoyment. Also, the extended version of Mallrats isn't really that good. The stuff was cut from the movie for a reason. The original beginning is awful, it's way too long, drawn-out and just not funny. You're not missing out on much, trust me. Be happy dude!

um dude Im 23 years old. But I guess i need to work on my typing skills people seam to get mad when I type to fast. Mad or confused whatever it is I need to work on it,.
i just never get what I ask for for christmas, and I ALWAYS get clothse even though eveyrbody knwos I buy myown clothes. teh shoes were ok cuzI needed them for work, bt I have more than enough pants and socks.  


EDIT: as for Mallrats I really love that movie and been looking for it everywhere bt no one ever has it for sale. Teh Degrassi ting was sickening cuZ I hate Degrassi, but i like Kevin Smith and Jay and Silent Bob so Ill still watch it but anyways. The Sonic game WAS on my list and I love it so far, I played Prince of Persia and its pretty cool, shouldnt take me more than a week to finish though. The christmas itself wa VERY good I got to spend time with my nephew and new born niece who live in Idaho and I dont get to see often.

It was better than last year where all I got was the same pack of sock and an ice scrapper for my car (which was a cheap dollar store gift that broke first tiem I used it.)

I ama  Christian and christmas means so much more to me than gifts I just mostly started tis thread to see what everyone else got and to ask if PRince of Persia was good, it wasa cool game just not teh one I asked for thats all. But I appreciate your comments um for what they were an all. pLus it looks like Nintendo is having a good Christmas too so thats good for me.

This was my first video game free Xmas in about ten years. Is this growing up?
Title: RE:Christamas is here what games did you get?
Post by: MrAustin on December 27, 2005, 04:22:31 AM
I got the following games:

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
Final Fantasy IV Advance
F-Zero GX (never gave it a try till now)
Zelda: Wind Waker (maybe I'll actually play this one through now)

Also got a bunch of nice ties, dress shirts, some Nintendo shirts, and a kickass platinum ring from my wife.  Overall I would say this has been one of the best Christmas's in a long time.

Merry Christmas everyone!

I was instructed to not buy any games leading up to the holidays, so as to not preempt a gift. Then I got no games. Ha. Got a shitload of clothes though, which is good becaues I hate shopping. I figure I've been spared at least three hours in department stores. I could play Luigi's Mansion like ten times instead. Ooooh, burn. So I guess I gotta hit up the bank, post office, state store and game store today for a little post-Jesus Day shopping spree.

Semi-related, I suppose, but can you buy a spare microphone for Mario Party? We was thinkin' of renting MP7 for New Year's. Does the rental version come with the mic? Maybe I should find a more appropriate thread.
Title: RE: Christamas is here what games did you get?
Post by: King of Twitch on December 27, 2005, 04:42:40 PM
I tried looking for the mic alone in stores but I don't think it is sold alone, in stores anyways. I found that very retarded.

Oh hay, great year for gaming this year.

Super Mario Strikers - my brother actually got this, but since I can beat him up it's pretty much mine.  Best muliplayer game I've played in quite some time.
Mario Tennis: Power Tour - same situation as above.  Pretty cool, great handheld tennis.
Naruto 4 - Not actually a christmas gift, but I got it around christmas and I didn't pay for it!  Pretty cool, yay for fighting!
Kururin Squash - same situation as above.  Sorta disappointing.  I'd rather use skill to get through tricky puzzles then hitting enemies with a boxing glove...
1080 Avalanche - I'm having a blast with this game, I was not prepared for the sense of speed this game delivers.
Battalion Wars - Holy crap, this is hard.  I suck at this game so much, II'm never goign to get anywhere in it.
Luigi's Mansion - launch title like what

For the DS~

Castlevania - woah.  I was not prepared for how awesome this game is.  It's my first Castlevania, and Ima definitley pick up the GBA compilation whenever it comes out.
Trauma Center: Under the Knife - I love this game.  The dialogue can get annoying at times, but the operations are awesome.
Advance Wars DS- I haven't played this one too much, but I'm liking it a bit more than AW2, even though this one's basically the same except on steroids.
Partners in Time - Haven't played too much of this one either, but it's pretty cool so far.  That's all I have to say about that.

Well, 1080 and Luigi's Mansion's are way cheap, and my mom got Battalion Wars for only $30 because of a misprint.  My uncle got me Trauma Center, and Naruto was free.  Kururuin was only 30 as well.

But uhh yeah pretty much
Title: RE:Christamas is here what games did you get?
Post by: Toruresu on January 04, 2006, 09:37:13 AM
Well, I got myself (since I'm 23);

Trauma Center - great game, but it gets me too tense and I have to stop every other operation.
Mario Kart DS - already unlocked everything and starting to play online, great game.
Clothes - heh

It was a very 3rd party Christmas: Prince of Persia: Two Thrones (MUCH better than WW), LEGO Star Wars (fun), and X-Men Legends II (haven't really gotten into this; my wife and I had a lot of fun with the first one).

Since I bought all of the DS stuff I wanted, I just asked for three things.

DK King of Swing (GBA)
Mission Hill Complete Series (DVD)
CD Cassette Converter

I better start saving up quite a bit, me and my dad will be in some financial trouble for awhile =/

Oh my God KDR...

I think I read about this a few months ago in a newspaper, but it said they were trying to make a game based on Puerto Rico's agriculture and set in the past.

This is...it's...I dunno, weird.

I wonder if I could get one around here. Maybe in San Juan?

Edit: I was just checking the forums on that site KDR, and apparently this game is pretty famous! I just hope that it gets you curious about our island, and you europeans may just visit us
