Title: What are you getting for Christmas?
Post by: CelliCeL on December 10, 2000, 09:44:42 PM
I haven’t asked my mom to buy me anything for Christmas. Last year all I asked for was
nba live 2001, the new Jordan shoes and some cologne. This year I dont know what to
get. I was thinking about asking for Ready 2 Rumble round 2 and Fifa 2001. I was also
wondering what ps2 games you guys are getting for Christmas, and if my 2 ps2 game
choices are any good.


If this topic has already been brought up, then my bad, I didn’t want to look for it.

if I were you I not get ready to rumble cause it\'s not the kind of game you can keep playing, it get\'s boaring after a while,I would get something like summoner which is good and will take you a while to beat, so this way when you are done with it MGS2 will be out :)

communal name; duh ! You have to wait \'till XMAS
\'cause you only paid half of it( the rest, your
daddy and mommy I guess). Now that\'s just bitter.
I paid full myself, well that\'s natural at 22, isn\'t it?
But I\'m thinking of getting \'Smuglers Run\' or some
PSone game I haven\'t played yet. Or I could save the
money for begin next year when GT3, Bouncer and Onimusha
arrive (hope so !).

Why?  Because he works?  People act like they were born with a job.  Why do people get crap for having their parents buy them gifts?  All of us had "mommy and daddy" buy us something at some point and time.  They got me the 2600 - after that, I bought my own systems.

For christmas, I\'m probably getting Metal Slug (import PSX) or Marvel vs Capcom 2 or any other plethora of $29.99 titles.

I\'m just gonna get a big pile of Dung for Christmas. Why u ask? Well quite frankly it\'s because I got my way and bought a PS2 and my little lady ain\'t getting me anything else.

Let me explain something to you.
I am not Mr. Lebowski. You\'re Mr. Lebowski.
I\'m the Dude. So, that\'s what you call me.
You know, that, or his dudeness, or duder,
or el duderino,

I.S 400 link cable or better known as Firewire IEEE-1394

Its an cable capable of 400mbps of dat transfer. It can be used for many electronic devices like Digital camcorders etc...

but in my case its for connectiong 2 Playstation 2\'s together so me and my step-son can play Armored Core2 on 2 different TV\'s avoiding the splitscreen mode.



oh and Morpheus

thats so cool.  I would love to have someone around where i live have a PS2 so we could do that.  but no one i know has a playstation 2. everyone thought i was crazy spending $300 but it was well worth it. my friends are all waiting for game cube. but i told them that it was mostly gonna be based on games for younger kids so that they can monopolize that age group and more parents will buy games because "they arent violent."  who wants to play  non violent game. i mean it is everywhere, news movies cartoons.i mean look at pokemon they are always fighting but it is not a bg deal because it is a cartoon. ohh i went off in the wrong direction...

It\'s exam time for me right now, all I want for Christmas is sleep.

I have NO IDEA how I\'m going to buy gifts for friends and family, I have absolutely no money left, I paid off my tuition fees and books, bought a TV, then the PS2 came and cleaned my pockets. Hell I don\'t even have enough cash to buy another PS2 game for myself - I\'m planning on trading in some of my old PSX games that I don\'t play often (Jeremy McGrath Supercross - perhaps the worst game of the past decade). Although I should be getting Fifa 2001 PS2 to review any day now.

How much do you think I could get for selling a kidney?

I\'ll get DVD movies and a memory card I think. And some other cool stuff. But I don\'t think much about it (really!). I just enjoy the whole Christmas atmosphere. :D
