Topic: I have no idea what to buy for xmas....any suggestions?...

Hi,my dad gave me 170 euros as an xmas present.
Problem is:i have no idea what to buy....

I am thinking from an PSP(Original not the GO model) to alot of 2nd hand PS3 Games.
...is it me or is....Xmas......boring as hell now?....
I'm 17 and i remember xmas being exciting as a kid and waking up and rushing down to get my presents...but now i feel empty and i feel xmas is a pain....

As a kid, Xmas is so exciting, Santa, presents. But now, you have to actually do a hell of alot more.

Buy your father something nice.

Put it in a high interest savings account, and then keep adding to it. Then buy a house some day where you can make magic childhood memories for your future children.

Guys knowing my dad,he'd call me a fool for buying him a gift. He'd want me to buy something for myself lol

Like i said...i'm thinking along the lines of a PSP Original..but then again....lots of PS3 games.
_Sigh...Everyone around me is buying a PS3 for xmas and their so exicted....and i am happy for them but...heres me....bored with money to spend on....something....Just can't figure out what tho..

WIth xmas only Four days away....i better hurry....

Well, if you're looking to get yourself something, I'd recommend some games over a PSP.

Don't buy a PSP yet. There's a rumor going around that a new PSP 4000 model is coming early next year at the same or a lower price point so getting an original PSP (2000 or 3000 models) might be a bit hasty.

This is simply a signature test.

Another one? I don't know about that

Try getting some more Playstation 3 games. The Playstation Portable is not worth your money.

Perhaps if you are a big fan of Sony, depending on how much money you do have, you may want to consider purchasing a computer or Blu-ray disc player from them. Of course, if you go with the computer, here is a recommendation, purchase one that has an integrated Blu-ray optical drive for a couple of reasons.

End. Blu-ray discs can hold up to 25 GB of data on a single-layer and up to 50 GB on a dual-layer disc.
↓. Video quality on Blu-ray discs is much better than that of DVDs.

170 Euros is approximately $243.83 United States dollars. In that case, I am not sure that a computer is an option. You may still be able to afford a Blu-ray disc player to go with a television set though. I am not sure how much Sony sells them for.

I already own a PS3 and don't believe in buying DVD or Blu-ray players. They expensive and crap. My PS3 does the job. lol

I remember the good ole days when Christmas presents were secrets and they were wrapped.

Now everybody I know already knows what they are getting, yet they still go through the motions. Its so sterile now.

The best way to spend your money is to go to the mall. You'll buy lunch, maybe see a movie, buy random stuff you would never have considered before, and then go home with maybe 5 quid.

Get a PSP and the head comes off.
I mean it. >:3

Buy some stock. Now is the best possible time to buy.

If you play your cards right, you'll have over 500 euros by next Christmas.

LOL. he said he was 17. Can a 17-year-old buy stock in Europe? Although that is a good suggestion.

As for spending the money, this is NINTENDO Life isn't it? Get some Nintendo games! I heard Little King's Story is really good. New Super Mario Bros. Wii is AWESOME (my friend rented it) If you can find Elite Beat Agents I highly suggest that. So much better than Guitar Hero. and then there's WiiWare, Onslaught is a good FPS although it's hard to find online players sometimes. World of Goo is a great puzzle/physhics game, I like Swords and Soldiers (another WiiWare game), or you could get a new DSi! But then I'd have to go into how awesome Flipnote Studio looks like... And then there's DSiWare!

Don't get a PSP. I know someone who has one and he hates it.

I better stop lol.

You forgot Style Savvy, Birthday Party Bash and Sexy Poker.

OMG STYLE SAVY!!! I can't believe I forgot that! OMGROFLOL [sarcasm]

Just save it until something nice comes out. That is what I usually do when I get money at Christmas.

Buy New Super Mario Bros. Wii, then a few PS3 games.
