The night before picking up a game, even though I want to go to bed, I feel like a kid the night before x-mas. I have probably picked up 100 games, and while not quite as exciting as the first few times, its still cool to get a bit of a high. (sounds like a sexual metaphor)
On the other side of this, Christmas is always a let down as far as the present department. Really how much better does it get than a 30 year old game that will need 200 bucks in sideart and repairs. Nothing really compares unless it has 500 HP and 20 inch rims. I never complain about presents, but it is hard to get what your really want when your in this hobby. However every year I get 2 or 3 electronic dart boards, and 6 packs of donkey kong or pacman power drinks.
