Tell us about all the new games you got for Christmas this year! Whether it was a game you personally got, or a game that one of your kids got that you know you'll end up playing we want to hear about it! Also, if you got a gift card to Steam, PSN, E-shop, etc., let us know what you ended up downloading with it.

I'll report back later in the day once I obtain all the new loot.

Juist before Christmas I ordered my (secondhand) PS3 and the Killzone trilogy . And with the January sale on PSN I got myself the a bunch of Ratchet &a Clank games, Demon Souls and the ICO games.

For PS4 I ended up with Valley, Dear Esther and No Man Sky among others.

For PC I got a great puzzler game called Rubek.

Game gift trades with some friends netted me:

  • GTA V (ps4)
  • The Witness (Steam)
  • Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition (Steam)
  • Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale

Got FFXV and a gift card from family, so that was nice. Hoping I can use it to snag Ratchet & Clank for the ps4 if it goes on sale during the last week of the holiday sale :)

  • Tomb Raider Definitive Edition (Xbone)
  • Destiny: The Collection (Xbone)

My son got a few games too:

  • Pokemon X (3DS)
  • Minecraft (XBone)
  • Just Dance 2017 (Wii U)
  • Rock Band 4 (Xbone)

I received Final Fantasy XV from my wife and I don't even know where to begin in terms of filling out my playthrough goals :P It seems like such a huge game!

Update: I bought the season pass to Star Wars Battlefront with my PSN gift card since it was on sale.

I'm going to wait until the next round of holiday deals shows up in the Xbox store before I spend my $30 Xbox gift card. Nothing is interesting me this week.

For this Christmas I received a $100 Amazon gift card that I plan to put towards quite a few retro games, and maybe a few peripherals while I'm at it. I've always wanted a fight stick, but I haven't been able to find one for a noteworthy price (at least not yet). I also purchased Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition on Steam for myself, and of course was gifted the game Xotic by moho_00! Thanks again!

Christmas this year was actually not game-centric for the first time ever, but I did still pick up a few things. A couple of Gameboy Color games (Pong: The Next Level and Tasmanian Devil Munching Madness), Alien: Isolation, Splatoon, and my awesome girlfriend pre-ordered the Special Edition of Persona 5 for me. I also used a gift card to pick up Legend of Legacy.

I spent the rest of my Xbox gift card on Lego Star Wars The Force Awakens mainly for my son. Christmas has finally come to an end for me this year.
