What do you want for Christmas?

edited December 2007 in General Chat
Well, after holding off for a week, my wife finally talked me into putting the Christmas tree up. I was a little slow getting into it (coming right off Halloween), but with everything seeming to turn "Christmasy" over night (at least here in Canada) it's pretty safe to say it's "That time of year again!"
Christmas commercials have arrived and stores.... well alot of stores had Christmas stuff up in September, but now it's pretty much full blown...
Anyways, I'm sure Christmas shopping has begun and I think it's the perfect time to play:
What do you want for Christmas!!!!!???!!!!

    I'd love to see a full expansion pack for Portal, but that's probably pushing it a bit, so I'll just stick with wanting Mario Galaxy and Sam and Max. But I'll probably just be impatient and buy them as soon as possible, and hope I get plenty of money for Christmas to make up for it.

    Passing my driving test in time for Christmas would be nice too, were it not for the fact that I'd probably end up driving everyone around to parties on New Year's Eve, and having to stay tee-total myself so I'm in a fit state to get them back hope again.

    I wouldn't mind a PS3 either, if only for Ratchet and Clank, and Naughty Dog's new game.

    Please... according to the Home Depot near our office, it's been Christmas for a good month and a half now.

    Mario Galaxy, Zack & Wiki, and Lego Star Wars Complete Sage will all be out, and I can't afford all 3, so whichever I don't buy, I hope to get for Christmas.

    I would die happy just getting a couple imports from Japan....

    The Lostman Goes to the USA on DVD [I still smack myself in the face for being in Cali and MISSING a chance that is likely NEVER going to happen again]
    And the CD, 'Wake Up, Wake up, Wake up!' current import prices for it are in the 80's :( I love the band [the Pillows] so much I don't want to have to wait till their next album comes out and I can import it cheaper, or it actually gets published here in the US like 'Penalty Life' and 'My Foot.'

    But I doubt that's gonna happen any time soon *cries*

    Oh, well, I also want Echoes by Pink Floyd because I want to get a hold of those juciy b-side tracks that never make it onto the CD's, like 'When the tigers broke free.' I also hear rumours of Telltale reprinting 'Sam & Max: Surfing the Highway?' I want that!!!!! I had a chance to read some of it, by ordering it from a library in California but I couldn't finish it because they only gave me 3 days before I had to give it back >:(

    And this is also unlikely to happen, but I want a ticket to Aussie land. I miss my Emma so much..

    Croutons: "When The Tigers Broke Free" was on The Final Cut, the semi-sequel-ish followup album to The Wall which was originally named "Spare Bricks" but turned into a political and pacifistic rant by Roger Waters. Send me a PM if you want to discuss Pink Floyd, I'm sure we'd have a lot to talk about :)

    I would like either the Bone Comic collection, or the reprint of Sam&Max. OR one of these:
    Nurse or Elf (yeah, that would seem gay, but they are VERY well detailed :P)

    Yeah, I really wish for the "Surfing the Highway"-hardcover, signed and scribbled in by Steve. But I know, that's not gonna happen, at least not for Christmas.

    Celebrate Christmas in a sunny Australia. That's what I want. Because I hate snow, and I don't like working 20 minutes getting the ice off my windshield every morning.

    Better yet: I want to be teleported to March 2008, because January and February are the worst months ever!!! And don't get me started about New Years eve, either!

    Ok let's see... Money to buy gifts for others.
    A job would be great, that I could get that money.
    A HUGE hammer to break my current processor and hard-drive
    New processor and hard-drive because if I have these I can have a HAMMER TIME with the old ones.

    Many many books about programming.
    A lot of different comic series (books and movies too).
    A HUGE amount of food for my vampire cat called Mornikka (He's so cute when he tries to eat my fingers).

    Ugh. Even in Davis, it got up to 70 (21 C) today, which is too warm for November. It needs to be cooler. It's fall and I like to wear sweaters and sweatshirts, damnit! :p

    There's only one thing I want for Christmas, and that's a Telltale UK branch with a license to work on Discworld games; OK, OK, there are TWO things I want for Christmas, and that's a Telltale UK branch with a license to work on Discworld games and with me being involved in all this; OK, OK, there're THREE things I wan- I'll start again.

    There's three things I want for Christmas:
    • a Telltale UK branch
    • the Telltale UK branch having a Discworld title license
    • me working on said title in said branch
    Ooh, and Eric Idle to do the voice of Rincewind again. So, FOUR things.... bah, I give up.

    In no particular order

    - World peace.... and Max's Peace Maker :)
    - Episode 202 for season ticket holders
    - Extra long and fully paid Vacations

    And lastly, but not less important
    - A happy time with my family and/or friends

    And following MrSneeze's idea...
    More Telltale goodness, in the form of new adventure games based on either old or current licenses or their own new ideas.

    Well, I'm getting four books for Christmas.

    Myself.


    My family's gift-giving Christmas tradition has been slowly dying, and I think it's gonna kick for real this time, so I'm not counting on other people to give me free stuff.

    Hey, nice gift! I got mine in a black frame like that, 'cept it's not as thick.

    Along with other things, I got Hotel Dusk for Christmas. The game is bloomin' awesome! Everyone here should give it a try.
