Here comes Santa Klawz, now have you been a good boy?

Christmas is around the corner and every year many people like me has to list down a tiresome list of presents to give to friends and family. However, have no fear! This list would probably save you time so that you can enjoy more on the food and presents you got before the holidays are over!

Lets get started!

XCOM: Enemy Unknown and Slingshot DLC

The game will make the perfect gift for people who love strategy, aliens, government conspiracies and kick-ass weapons. Not to mention replay value – play multiplayer with friends and family, especially a DLC that is bringing China’s Triads into the fray.

Where to get it: STEAM

Price (Estimate): RM150++

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 Care Package (Xbox or PS3)

This is one X’mas gift that could really make a gamer scream with joy! It comes with a remote-controlled Dragonfire Drone which is just the same as in the game itself. Not only that, you will also receive a bunch of goodies which collectors of this series will die to get their hands on, especially the Collectible Steelbook II and real challenger coins.

Where to get it: Local or major game shops or online stores like Qishan.
Price: RM780++

Hordes 2-Player Battle Box
Sometimes, it’s not just about digital games. Miniature games can be fun too. Hordes for example is a simple and interesting game that utilises great miniature models that look great even without painting. This 2-player box set gets you into the game immediately once assembled. It comes with a rule book, guide, dice and everything else you need to start. The werewolf models are wicked.
Where to get it: PrivateerPress
Price: RM320++
Warhammer 40K(W40K) : Dark Vengeance
Well, if Hordes is not your type, this would certainly catch your eye. The W40K series is back with a new 6th Edition rule book, updated race for Chaos Space Marine and Dark Angels plus lots of goodies to spare inside. Collectors of these W40K miniatures will shriek in happiness when they receive one for X’mas. Heck, I would just buy them to collect the models.

Motorola DROID Razr Maxx HD
The best thing a smartphone has to offer – BATTERY LIFE! Yup, nothing beats this beast that lasts for days with one charge or a full day with heavy usage of Android Apps and its functions. Best of all, it is LTE (4G) ready. No other smartphone even comes close to its long-lasting battery as of now.
Where to buy it: It’s not available here yet, but I am keeping my fingers crossed.
