I really didn't know what I wanted, so I just gave everyone a list of some coding books/software I wanted... I wanna learn C++ and the stuff for it is mildly expensive so might as well get it for crimbo
I had a choice this year: I could either have presents as normal, or go on a skiing holiday with my mate and get stoned every day before going skiing. I chose the holiday of course.

This year, my parents are once again fighting for popularity. Which of course, is to my distinct advantage...
Mum:
Xbox, 4 games, Live! for a year, counter-strike on XBox, an RC Dodge Viper (I didn't ask, I got )
Dad:
Some xbox games
C++ Book/CD
DarkBASIC Pro
256mb ram to top up
Geforce 5600 Ultra
I dunno, I don't really go full out for X-Mas. I might get a New Snowboard and A new 20oz CO2 cannister with anti siphon and an on/off switch for my Paintball gun. Soe Cds a few doo dads, I don't ask for things, I just get lucky.
"Hopefully money; my beer funds are running a bit low." - Paul
I second that notion. Although my employment status should rapidly rise in the next few weeks, as should my funds, but a bit of extra dosh on the side would be of great benefit too.
Apart from that I wouldn't mind a ticket to the Sydney Big Day Out (a music festival)

I wanted the new legacy of kain game, but its not out here till febuary (day before my 18th).
ill probably just get some cds, lost prophits perhaps. and mabey the two towers extended dvd.
Goddamn, Christmas sucks when you're an adult. The whole thing is marketed at kids these days, and it's so obvious how every company exploits the holiday and the need for parents to let their kids keep up with the trends, to make cash.
You also gotta feel sorry for all the religions who don't celebrate Christmas. I mean, it's rammed down everyone's throats so bad now.
What else sucks above all is that I'll be working at Christmas and New Year for the 4th year running. Double wage = good, not getting pissed on New Years Eve = Bad.
Wait a minute, I work in a pub. All is not lost...

-"Hello, is that the kings arms pub?"
-"Yes..."
-"Do you have an employee called Trevor?"
-"We do indeed, a fine young chap he is."
-"Oh. So you know he's a raving alcoholic then."
-"I beg your pardon?"
-"An alcoholic."
-"You what... oh, he's here now. Heya, Trev." "Trev Thirsty. Trev want booze." "Stop looking at me like that Trev... no, oh DEAR GOD NO!!!!...." *ratttling* *crash* *gargling sounds*
I'm buying me a new PC (time I treated myself ), and the parents are getting me "The West Wing" Series 2 box set for Chrimbo, and a mobile phone upgrade pack for my birthday (which is three days after).
If at first you don't succeed, call it version 1.0
I want a new mobile phone since I cracked the screen of mine last night after stumbling over drunk and eating shit, and not remembering a thing...FFS!!!

For gods sake, why do people argue over which consoles better? DOES IT MATTER? If it plays games, its worth it! Plus the fact that I already OWN a PS2 at my dads house, I think I can make comparisons. And anyway, most (if not all) games that are coming out on PS2 that are worth playing come out on gamecube and XBox anyway! I just don't understand why everybody argues!
