I saw some kid online spouting off about his parents are idiots because they bought him a Galaxy Tablet instead of an iPad. Sadly, I see that kind of entitlement in kids a lot nowadays and it blows my mind. If I had a child and they ever did something like that, I would take away all of their gadgets (tablets, cell phones, computers, consoles) and sell them just to prove a point. Some kids go without proper food and shelter, let alone all of these extras. |

I thank my parents dearly for working hard to get my family and I a wonderful Christmas. This kid obviously was not spanked enough by his mommy and daddy when he was younger. Coming from a Military family (Father serving in the air force, grandfather serving in the Army and Marines, and my Uncle in the Navy) I would never get away with that attitude. And quite frankly, the Holidays are a time of year for FAMILY. Presents are an extra. |

Gaming related: Skyward Sword Limited Edition bundle Metro 2033 novel 4200 Microsoft Points Zelda t-shirt Non-gaming stuff Paul Frank PJs Vans T-shirt Terminator 2 blu-ray Minority Report blu-ray Perfume Chocolates CDs (Opeth, Ryan Adams) Bracelet And one of the most thoughtful presents I have ever received - a replica Tottenham Hotspur shirt from the year I was born. Not that any other presents aren't meaningful, but the thought that went into that one made it extra special to me. I'm happy no matter what I get for Christmas; I always appreciate the time, money and thought that goes into any gift I get. Can't believe those ungrateful tweets. Makes me genuinely angry. |

I actually needed socks and I didn't get any :S My favorite present is my personalized apron $20 mostly because my girlfriend got one to match it As for the kids up there crying about cars. I did every chore imaginable and saved change when I could get it from my parents, and while I didn't have the hardest time ever in the world saving it, it DID take me almost 2 years to save up the $700 to buy my first car which was a beater all around, and I had to paint with spray cans(including the interior) because it was in such bad shape lol. |

I'm well stocked with socks.... I was in need of underwear and Santa delivered. As for the Iphone/pad/car thing.... That makes me so sick to my stomach. You can't even imagine some of the hellish things I had to do during Louisiana summers to save up enough money for my first car. |

It's good, I've been in in love with open world/sandbox style for years, nice change from the limitations of FPS games. Definitely worth picking up
