Clothes that I didn't want or need (Polos.....ugh.) a PS1 controller that I had bought off of eBay about a month ago and was actually in a paypal dispute over unknowing that my mom found it when it came in the mail and boxed it up under the tree as if I would think she bought it, and a Spice and Wolf DVD.

This X-Mas sucked.

I did get my EMS "Total Control Plus" PS2-to-Dreamcast controller adapter in the mail yesterday. I wasn't sure if it would arrive before Christmas, but thankfully it did. So I was able to try it out with two different controllers last night and so far it works as advertised without any noticeable input lag. :)

I'm always impressed that people get specialty tech stuff for xmas or things related to their hobbies; sega saturn? saturn to ps2 adapter? I get concerned enough just asking for games, hoping that it'll actually be for the right system, or asking for movies that will end up being on bluray or worse, full screen dvds. I usually just ask for something basic like a bestbuy gift card, or cash, since anything I can afford I already have or can only be found on ebay. Yeah, christmas is dramatically different after you're not 10 years old.

Of all the stuff I got the best is definitely a copy of Ratchet & Clank:Crack in Time, which is waaaaaay more ambitious than other Ratchet and Clank games I've played. They really upped the ante with this one
