The Orange Box. Unreal Tournament 3. Crysis. Thief 1, 2 & 3. This computer. A Wacom Cintiq. A 12.8 megapixel digital camera. The Canon HVX200 or a Red One. Adobe CS3 Master Collection and Maya Unlimited.

But I'm probably just getting The Orange Box. :-P

I got a new Tintin book, a shirt, a new hoodie and an Axe um... set. (It comes with shower gel, body spray and deoderant.)

It's not what I wanted but I still am glad for it.

I'm glad someone understood. :foot

On a different note... sometimes Christmas wishes DO come true.

I got enough funds to be able to buy a Wii. So I went to the store and apparently they're sold out everywhere.

Sold out... Where I live?! Unbelievable, who the fucl buys these things here, I wonder. :dead

:lol And how is that possible (and yes, I've heard it happening here too, if I remember correctly), hasn't Wii been around for some time already? Why don't they make garging enough of them so they wouldn't be sold out all the time! :garg

Probably the same reason the Big Day Out here only makes five thousand tickets available for each location on the website and sells the rest through Ticketek. Makes it look more popular, and gets people rushing to acquire the product. Pure marketing.

Either that or bad management.

I still don't get what's so great about a Wii, though.

Indeed, it certainly looks like they're purposefully making too small amount of them to make it look like everything is sold out every time. Yeah, I don't understand either what's so great in them, I personally hate it.

I myself am just out for a bit of fun, and the Wii is the most affordable and has the most games that appeal to me so far.
