ssj Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Time to show of what your getting for christmas this year. My List: Animal Crossing wii with wii speak Dragon Ball Z Season 7 Zelda Ocarina of time Manga Volume 1 Zelda Ocarina of Time Manga Volume 2 I will be getting more, but those are the only things I know about as I picked them myself How about you guys?
Ashley Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I've asked for an orange scarf. And thats it. Broke parents. Also expecting a bottle of gin but not asked for it.
darksnowman Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I've only asked for Secret Files: Tunguska on Wii, there's nothing I really need nor want, and it was going cheap on Amazon or Play so I told my dad to go for it. Err, I asked my sisters for headphones as they grilled me for hints and ideas. I think they will likely get me some toiletries as well. I've forked out bigstyle on everyone this year but there's just nothing I fancy in return.
D_prOdigy Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Fire Emblem on DS and 24 on DVD in some form is what I've asked for. I'll probably get some clothes as well which is always handy.
Tellyn Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 - Zack & Wiki - Wii Points - Heroes Graphic Novel - The Dark Knight
Emasher Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 My parents were really bugging me this year to try and find something. In the end I just told them Wario Land Wii, since I was probably going to buy it anyway. I didn't really want that much this year though.
Daft Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I asked specifically for nothing. ...although I did buy myself a present for my mum to give me...I was so close to upholding that 'Buy Nothing Xmas' deal. Oh well, better than last year.
Raining_again Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I haven't asked for anything specifically, but i'm pretty sure when my parents asked I gave them some ideas. (can't remember what though!) Not massively bothered about getting huge expensive presents or anything. Its just nice to know people care enough to buy you anything
Ganepark32 Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 - Sennheiser HD 555 headphones - Family Guy Season 7 - Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles season 1 - Multidimensional Warrior by Santana - And a couple of cheap games My parent's don't give me pocket money and so they normally encourage me to ask for more stuff at xmas to stop the purchasing of stuff through the year. But this year I've gone for a cheaper xmas with what I want. Out of all that, I'm only really wanting the headphones. So if I get them and anything else it'll be a fantastic xmas. I know my brother is getting a £500 Epiphone Zakk Wylde guitar so I think I was being nice by being cheap.
Strider Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 - Tomb Raider UnderWorld (PS3) - Resistance 2 (PS3) - Fallout 3 PS3 (PS3) Those were the games i asked for. I know i'm also getting an Ipod Touch, i didn't particually plan to get one, but my mum kept saying she'd like me to have one (God knows why). My 1st gen Ipod nano is on it's last legs now, and scratched to bits. For her i chipped £50 into the family fund to buy our first HD TV, it wasn't particually expensive (in TV terms) but it's surely better than our 10 year old 28" CRT.
Paj! Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 From my literal Xmas list; Christmas List - Tomb Raider : Underworld (for PC) - Wall*E (On DVD) - Selmasongs by Bjork (CD) - Wanted (On DVD) - The Fame by Lady GaGa ( CD, Not out here, only in the US, so it would have to be off eBay or something) - Twin Peaks Season 1 (On DVD) - Invincible: Ultimate Collection Volume 1 (Graphic Novel – Amazon?) - Mullholland Drive (On DVD) - Southland Tales (On DVD) - Thirteen (On DVD) - The Virgin Suicides (On DVD) - In Utero by Nirvana (CD) - Helllboy 2 : The Golden Army (On DVD) I forgot I asked for Twin Peaks. Just sounds so interesting. Already got Virgin Suicides from my friend in the school secret santa, which was great...and I know I'm getting Southland Tales, as I showed my mum Woolies had it, and she bought it there.
Pantsu Man! Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I asked for nothing but my dad said just accept what you're given. I also asked to be left alone but that's something they can't do...ugh.
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 On my wish list are a lot of stand-up DVDs, a few CDs and Call of Duty: World at War - then my family have had some things to choose from. I'm not particularly fussed about any of them, but I know I'll enjoy any of them.
Oxigen_Waste Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 What, you people actually make christmas lists?? Dear lord, what are you? 5?
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 What, you people actually make christmas lists?? Dear lord, what are you? 5? Yes, what are you? Grown up?
Ashley Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 What, you people actually make christmas lists?? Dear lord, what are you? 5? Well personally I just responded to the slightly altered question: "what have you asked for?" No. I have not written a list but instead verbally asked for the aforementioned. I presume this is the case with most people....or maybe they would write a list. Its unlikely parents would (a) remember and (b) know what they're buying. So its more of a prompted list with the idea of helping than a pre-empted list with the idea of getting as much as you can.
Ganepark32 Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I have to physically write it as a list as my mum is such a waste of space, bless her, that she'd forgot 5 minutes later and suddenly remember in March or something strange like that (example, I asked for something I needed in February and got it in September randomly from her and she said she only just remembered). So its a way for her to remember and a way to make it slightly easier for her as I usually write down where to get the stuff cheapest so all she has to do is buy it.
Dog-amoto Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Think I'll be getting Fallout 3 and Wario Shake from my girlfriend. Plus Wii and MS points probably. Other than that will be a load of stuff telling me I smell and socks...lots of socks!!

My mum and sister writes me a list, I'm forgetful and its very handy
chairdriver Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I've asked for: - Some new headphones - A lovely jacket - A cool belt
Eenuh Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 What, you people actually make christmas lists?? Dear lord, what are you? 5? Heh, what's wrong with a list? We all put one up here in our family, even my sister's boyfriend, so there's six lists attached to our kitchen door. =P It's quite nice, and gives people an idea of what you might want. Makes things a bit easier (especially with dad, as he's impossible to buy things for otherwise). Doesn't mean you'll be getting everything on your list though (or even anything at all). I have no idea what I'll be getting this Christmas. I put up a list of some CDs I'd like, some earrings or a gift card for some stores (art store, store where I buy my CDs and games...), but if I'll get anything from that I don't know. It's all a big mystery. =P
dan-likes-trees Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 I asked for a new acoustic guitar (my current one is a 3/4 size nylon string one that sounds rather awful). Went and picked it the other week, I fucking love it. Asides from that, I asked for either Fallout, Dead Space, or Lost Odyssey (bit of surprise as to which I shall get) And hopefully a bit of cheap tat that I don't know about yet - tat is great at christmas. Got my dad Season 2 of The Wire, and La Haine as it was going cheap (and I want to watch it :P)
