What's the best gift you ever got for christmas?
I would have to say my nes that came with Rob the robot and the game gyromite.

A computer a few years back. It fueled my obsession with Counter-Strike for the next few years.

Best gift ever in my mind at the time but years later realised how extremely crappy it was: Action 52 for NES

I'm not sure, for the last 6 years I've got a Big Day Out ticket which has always been a good day. Lego was always good when I was younger. I don't think I've ever got 1 stand out present for christmas, I usually get the best stuff for my birthday.

same. the only good stuff I get is after income tax time in which my mom usually either gives me a chunk of her check to spend as I please (what happened last year. got me the much needed computer upgrades and the second machine now sitting in my room as well as my DS) or she buys me something herself.

I usually get a game system every Christmas, so it's usually the same. I'd say probably the biggest surprise was a Dreamcast back in 1999. They were in high demand, and my parents hardly ever buy me a system the year it comes out because it's too expensive. I just told my parents "well, there's not really a whole lot that I want for Christmas. A Dreamcast would be cool but they're too expensive, so I'll just give you a list of CDs that I want". Surprisingly, I got a Dreamcast. It was completely unexpected.

In xmas 97 I got a PS1, FF7, and Tekken 2. Thats about the point where I started to really get into gaming.
