JustJay Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 From my wife and kids, I got a birthday(nov.30th) /Christmas present, a PS3 that came with a full year of PS+ and Uncharted 3 and I received GTA 4 complete edition, WWE 2k14, MLB The Show 13, and NCAA 14. We usually don't have the money to buy each other gifts but wife was in a minor accident in early Sept. and received a $750 payout for pain and suffering from it.

Brian Fowler Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 So far... Godzilla Criterion(just in time for the Movie Club!) So jealous. Almost bought the blu-ray the other day. Sure, I have the American Dud on three different dvds, and two copies of the original Japanese cut (bought it when it was first released, and then that Godzilla collection box set...) but CRITERION and BLU-RAY and must spend money...

Tabe Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Won't get anything from my wife as our funds went to an iPad Air for her (my choice) and our Hawaii trip in March. From my folks, I got a 1980 USA hockey road jersey, the style they were wearing when they won the gold medal. They had previously given me the home white version worn during the Miracle on Ice game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireThunder Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 I finally got a copy of Ghost in the Shell: SAC 2nd Gig, one of the series that I was missing for my collection. I also got a Bloom County collection book (Classics of Western Literature), a nice pair of work gloves, some Cubs apparel, some cash and gift cards, a ton of food, and two growlers of beer from a local brewery. My wife and son got a Kindle Fire HD that they'll share, so that was the big thing in our house this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elizium Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Just did the family Christmas (still have to do gifties with friends). This year was all about bottles of wine and photo books on Man Ray and Don McCullin's works. Also, a new vacuum, but that's not the sexy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 My girlfriend got me a PS3 and a copy of Ni No Kuni. Looking forward to another year (or 3) of use out of last gen stuff I haven't played. No No Kuni is the prettiest game I've ever played. Its childish aspects can irritate but I still got over 100 hours and a platinum trophy out of it. Great game. Get the Uncharted games and Assassin's Creed 2 after that. And sign up for PS+ - you'll be glad you did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 I got some socks, a heavy cotton fleece shirt that's awesome, two insulated shirts, a jacket vest, a Charleston Chew, a 25 dollar gift card to SmashBurger, a bottle of Jaeger, and my first Christmas off from work in seven years. I got to see my 3 year old nephew have his first Christmas morning where he understands who Santa Claus is and that he was here last night. (I provided the plate with half eaten cookies and a glass with milk residue for him to find this morning.) Seeing him light up as he opened his Cars "Doc Hudson" toy that Santa managed to find on E Bay was the best gift I can think of. Have a Very Jerry Christmas, Everyone! (And a Happy Bob Weir.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.K.o.S. Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Sister-in-law got us Drinking Buddies on blu-ray, which I've never seen, but some of it was shot at Revolution Brewing where I drink at every week, and it has Anna Kendrick with Joe Swanberg directing, so I think I'll dig it. It's pretty fun. Seems like everyone's a bit uncomfortable with the whole improvised dialogue thing early on, but they settle down and get into it. Never thought I'd see Ti West and Olivia Wilde sharing a scene, but it's in there. And watch for the Swanberg cameo. On topic, my family doesn't exchange gifts, but my girlfriend got me a dvd of A Late Quartet and a book on Michael Haneke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
