Game-wise: There isn't anything out at the moment that I want, that I don't own. Dishonored is the only game I'm looking at right now, and I'm sort of split on it.

Hardware: I really need a new mouse, keyboard, and game board. I've had my current razer gear for 3-4 years now and there starting to go out.

More then anything I want the Packers to win the Super Bowl.
PanzersEast: Have to think to myself.... will I play the first one by the Winter Sale?  Probably not, then I should remove Dragonfall
PanzersEast: but that is thinking too logically.... and Steam Sales are about ignoring Logic

Note: If there are any other halfway decent Football text sims, with career mode, I expect some of you to inform me!

Of new/recent releases that I haven't bought yet, Commander: The Great War is about the only one that really interests me right now.  Otherwise, the games I'm eying are still in development (such as Distant Worlds: Legends, Rome 2 TW, and Eriador: Masters of the Broken World). 

Of new/recent releases that I *have* purchased, I believe Crusader Kings 2 is the only one in the last several months.  Otherwise, there aren't many new games that are "must-haves" for me.  Just about anything else I'm seriously looking at getting or have already purchased are now relatively older releases, such as Shogun 2 TW (in the former case) and Hegemony Gold (in the latter).

Good Lord no!
We'd better brace for that possibility, because they're on top of the NFC North now...  :-\

Go Packers; I'm a UK footie (soccer) fan myself but some reason have always had a soft spot for the Packers, might be that they were pants when i was growing up.

I will look at the Sales if any pennies left; Matrix Sales still too high for me, but looking forward to the new Sim City and Rome 2 if it makes it next year.

Oh and playing with my new Galaxy Note 10.1 tab that the wife has bought me :)

Looks like Matrix now has gift card options.....now your significant other can just give you a certificate to spend as you see fit:)

Mostly books for me:

I am a big fan of Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin series, so this would be great to have:

I also like Norman Friedman's comprehensive design studies.  Wish I'd bought this when it was still in print...

My family thinks I'm nuts for spending more than $40 on a book...but my wife has begun to understand.  :)

I'm still a little kid when in comes to Xmas, so I asked for toys.

First, I really want one of those new Kindle Paperwhite thingies because I use my Kindles every day. 

Next, on the off chance my wife is feeling spendy, I asked for a Logitech G27 racing wheel to mount in my Obutto.  I'm not really into sim racing (yet), but I could be if I had a decent wheel setup.

Finally, I'm feeling pretty fleshed out on the gaming front (although there are a few Matrix titles I'm still eyeballing like Field of Glory and Empires in Arms), so I asked for a bunch of boardgames this year: Next War: Korea, The Hobbit (the one with like 50 figures in it), Hornet Leader CAG, Wrath of Ashardalon and I can't remember what else.  I'm curious to see what, if any, Santa brings.
