With just 3 months to go, I thought I'd get a jump start on some gifting ideas.
Some for me and some for others.

PC Games:
Half Life 2
Neverwinter Nights 2
Broken Sword: Angel of Death
Hitman: Blood Money
Titan Quest

Hardware:
Logitech Rumblepad 2
Z-Board
2x1 Gig of decent low latency ram RAM
Logitech Z-10 speakers (wish-list)

Feel free to add as you please.

Cheers

i would rather wait for AMDs answer to the Core Duo and get something which will push Vista better than what we have now.

Just a note:

Lets not go into the 'rather wait for something better scenario'.

The intention of this thread is to identify gifts that you want for Christmas ... to treat yourself for all the hard work you have done or pretended to have done during 2006

So if he wants a new mobo and cpu ... let him.

i hope so, but just look at all the RPGs slated for an identical date : Dark Messiah, Gothic 3 ( which has been withdrawn from its GONE GOLD status ) and The Witcher.

Too much to handle!
