As a gaming Dad, I'm interested in hearing if:

1a. You or your family gave your Dad some gaming-related present, and
1b. What's in it for you

2a. As a Dad, did you receive something gaming-related,
2b. Did you have to buy it yourself,
2c. Have the kid/s let you have a go yet and are they owning you

My eldest bought me a Futuretronic DS Games case, the one that holds 4 DS and 3 GBA carts, two stylii, and comes with a spare stylus. Hah! He can't 'own' me with that!
The other one isn't up yet so I'll have to wait and see...

You can ask the same question about anyone who plays games - I've been getting it for 25 years. How long have people been questioning you? :p

What would you rather your Dad to be doing, smoking a pipe and knitting, or playing multi-player games with you?

Would it spin you out that I prefer listening to TripleJ?

I shall have to go back to my profile and add "Age-Nazis" to my list of things I don't like...;)

Nothing wrong with knitting. It's a very manly thing to do, knitting squares for a quilt for sick children.
