    The multiplayer is surprisingly good....if you have a game save from the original uncharted you get an additional 20k bonus and if you have a compelted game save its 100k bonus

    Closest gaming related thing I got was a ice-cube tray shaped like Space Invader aliens :D Oh and my brothers old computer (which has been sitting unused in his room for best part of half a year).......well, when he bothers to copy over his stuff and wipe it anyways :rolleyes:

    Damn publishers pushing game releases till after Xmas, now I have to go and buy them myself :mad:

    No one game. How many hints do I have to drop :/ I got all the Police Academy films on DVD instead. I hate Police Academy as well.

    Oh dear, my condolences! I don't think anyone needs to own a physical copy of Mission to Moscow.

    Got Disgaea 3 (which I'll get around to once I put another 80 hours or so into Disgaea 1 - love the games), Zelda Spirit Tracks and Left 4 Dead 2 (I have already been left incapacitated mere steps away from the getaway car after filling up the petrol tank for my team. Ah the joys of co-op).

    Tell me about it. It's just ridiculous. It's like I came out as a nerd and they won't accept it. Every year I just don't get anything games related but this year police academy is like a kick in the balls :/

    COD2 and Assassins Creed 2 :)
    Haha my brother got those two. Spent the whole day playing Assassins Creed, says it's a superior game. He got a really cool black Assassins Creed t-shirt with the game aswell. I'm not even into gaming but I'd wear it myself, it's unreal!

    Same here. No games. Not one. Disgrace. Not even a voucher for a games store.

    As a result my family are available right now on adverts, I'm willing to trade for a family willing to buy games.

    (also, at least the first two police academy films are decent)

    Santa brought me Forza 3 collectors edition and Wet. Will probably pick up some games during the sales aswell.

    Trade in the boxset against Bayonetta (which, lets be honest, is probably better than any game you would've gotten anyway). You may only get a tenner (if you're lucky :pac:) but you can consider it a moral victory of sorts.

    I got Uncharted 2, Assassin's Creed 2 and the God of War Collection for the PS3. I also got Left 4 Dead 2 for the PC, looking forward to playing that tonight :)

    I spent my Bayonetta money last night on booze :( Maybe I won't drink on new years :/

    I got Assassin's Creed II, Left 4 Dead 2 and lots of World of Warcraft-merchandise. All in all really awesome gifts - been slaughtering zombies, stabbing virtual italians and starin' awestruck at my new WoW-figures for the last few days. Seems like I'll have to buy the God of War-Collection myself, though.
    Also, much sympathy for the Police Academy-boxset-guy. Really not what a gamer would want fer christmas...
