In our podcast of 11/26/06 we mentioned the possibility of our releasing a gift guide to help all you gamers, and those who have to buy for you, with gift ideas. Like the GW Holiday Gift Guides we’ve broken our suggestions down into price categories. The goal was to have items to fit any budget. Often, finding the low cost items are the most difficult and especially so with gaming.
One thing to remember is when filling stockings, many of the small items are best. Plus, don’t overlook the everyday needs. We hope you find this gift guide to be useful.
