I enjoy this thread every year. Not sure why but I like seeing what everybody got.
So far, I received:
1) Uncharted 2 for PS3 from my sister in law and her husband.
2) Starbucks Gift Set (Mug, Hot Chocolate, etc.).
3) Drawing Heat The Hard Way: How Wrestling Really Works from my little brother.
4) Local movie theatre giftcards.
..that's it so far.

The good: Things are considerably better than they were last year. No popcorn, no box of crackers, no issues with Mom.
The bad: Wait, there's bad?
What I've gotten so far: $100 in a Wal-Mart Gift Card $50 Check from Grandparents Emerson Alarm Clock (I've been needing one for the past few years or so because of eyesight and the old clock's getting to the point of no return)
I still have tomorrow night to go, so... yeah. This year has been nicer to me.

I had all my Christmaseseses already yet and am spending tomorrow alone. So here's everything I got this year.
From my Secret Santa: A Snuggie and a $10 Wal-Mart gift card. From my Mom and Stepdad: New Super Mario Bros. Wii, a $25 Best Buy gift card, a Snuggie that my mom sewed herself and a flattened beer bottle turned into a nightlight that they got at a craft show. From my Sister: A pretty swank zip-up hoodie with designs on it and a fuzzy lining. From my other Sister: Two t-shirts - one with an Atari joystick that says "Represent" and one that says "I heart Cows" only instead of a heart, its a burger. From my Dad and Stepmom: $100 Visa gift card, hooded sweatshirt, socks and shirts.
I'm probably gonna use the $100 gift card for mostly groceries, maybe a Wiimote, and use the Best Buy gift card for Inglourious Basterds.

I, too, love seeing this kind of thread even though I don't really do Christmas. My family is made up of Muslims, Jews, and agnostics not into presents, though I occasionally get a few, and two Presbytarian grandparents who have only ever given me money as long as I've seen them. Whatever I do get, I am very grateful for, especially as I rarely give gifts around this time. However, my fantastic girlfriend got me three things for the hell of it: -A little USB drive cover (I have one that gets lost easily so this is very handy.) -An argyle sweater (A very nice gesture even though I'll never wear it. She figured that out too so I'm probably going to exchange it for something else.) -Rey Mysterio: Behind the Mask (I was so psyched about this. I relish wrestling biogs and I still can't get over the fact that she was nice enough to get this for me on a whim.) The good: Things are considerably better than they were last year. No popcorn, no box of crackers, no issues with Mom. The bad: Wait, there's bad? What I've gotten so far: $100 in a Wal-Mart Gift Card $50 Check from Grandparents Emerson Alarm Clock (I've been needing one for the past few years or so because of eyesight and the old clock's getting to the point of no return) I still have tomorrow night to go, so... yeah. This year has been nicer to me. Wait, I vaguely remember a mention of popcorn but you could fill me in again on what happened last year? (If the trauma isn't too much!)

I haven't opened most of my gifts, but I do know what two of them are, and I already received two other gifts early.
I got, so far:
- $10 (from biological grandma) - Browning stainless steel pocket knife (from family Christmas party) - Wireless electric shaver kit(I needed it) - Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Sleeping Kit(has a beanie, sleeping shirt, sleeping pants, and fuzzy slippers all with the Modern Warfare 2 logo on it)
I dunno what else I got. Hopefully Left 4 Dead 2 and Halo 3: ODST most of all. Hell any video game would be an improvement over last year where the only thing REMOTELY gaming related I got was Superbad on UMD, and it is gaming related only because the PSP is the only thing that could play UMDs.

That's a lot of sports/fighting games(Smackdown, Legends, UFC, and Fight Night are all technically sports and fighting games). Overall, nice haul of games, though I've heard Legends was on the crap side of things.

I've officially hit the age this year in my family where we don't get anything for each other anymore, overall.
I feel like somehow that's a good thing.
