Title: Favorite Holiday Present?
Post by: blazzinmatt on January 01, 2006, 12:57:22 PM
What was your favorite present that you got for Hanukkah/Christmas/Kwanzaa?

My favorite present that I got was a black acoustic/electric guitar from my grandpa. For anyone that knows it is a Washburn D10SCE. It is so awesome and plays like a dream.
Here is a picture of it: Picture of my Guitar (http://www.guitarpeddler.com/w/Washburn_Guitars/Washburn_D10SCE_Cutaway_Acoustic_Electric_515325.jpg)

Thats a very nice guitar. My favorite present had to be...Karaoke Revolution. Thats a really fun game and can somewhat get you to sing better. It atleast teaches you words to the songs.

That game is really fun. My friend has it and we sit there for hours and play it. Its really fun and it can make the time go by really, really fast. Have fun with it.

^Do you have DDR: Extreme 2 to go with it? I like it but i dont like that you have to play level mode to get new songs. Playing songs over and over again was alot better.

I have....

max.
max2
extreme
extreme2

extreme 2 is very challenging with the new way to unlock songs.  There is a few i just cant beat.  But its good because it makes me want to just keep on playing.  The other ones, i played those songs and unlocked everythying in a matter of days.. and than it got boring.  I still play them though, its much cheaper than going to the arcade every day like i used to.

Now i cant wait for this summer though.  Ill surf the morning and afternoon away, and than hit the boardwalk for some DDR. Whew what an exciting life. haha.

I bought the Video iPod with my own money that I found laying around my house, go figure. Yea but if you want a DDR-esque game, buy In The Groove. It definitely is an awesome game and very challenging.

Gotta love the TiVo's! Got two! (One upstairs, one down)

My fav gift this Christmas? That would be my two wireless controllers for my PS2! (Yeah this Christmas was kinda lame. Got a lot of $$$ though!)

Money is always good stew :)

For me, I'm kinda torn between my new digital camera (opened it early for the construction tour lol) and a pool table for our new game room.

I am coming over to play DDR at your house. I play on my Cobalt Flux, only one though and not as big of a TV. That is a pretty sweet setup though Nick.

cobalt, i envy you.  

My neighbor and i play hardcore all of the time.  We both bought similar BNS metal pads.  I just recently replaced the arrows actually.. they were pretty messed up.

I still want a cobalt though.

My cobalt is amazing. I got it as a birthday present last year. We are currently redoing my basement and I am hoping for a bigger TV down there so I can play DDR and In The Groove on there bigger. DDR is such a great workout/exercise. I am convinced it is the reason that I am so thin  :P

That's a nice little Homepage you have about your family and coasters!  I think that pad Rick made is sweet. I would never be able to build one of those pads,  I'm all thumbs when it comes to things like that.

That's aweosme that you built your own metal pad. I am thinking of doing it one day, but I know its a lot of hard work and I have to see if I have the time to do it. It definitely is an accomplishment to play on it and if I have the time I will most likely build it.

I also have the 30GB Black one and it is definitely a lot nicer than the white one. I also just found the perfect place in my car for it so its at a reaching distance, can charge/play through the car stereo and if need be I can look and see what song is on, without crashing  8)

Well, I got my digital camera as an early Christmas present for the construction tours.  The best present I got on Christmas was "A Right to be Hostile: The Boondocks Treasury" and "Public Enemy #2: An all new Boondocks Collection".  The best after-Christmas present will be Socom 3.  My girlfriend got it for me off of eBay since she messed up before and got Socom 2 instead.  It's still in the mail.
