I'm really curious about the Wii U. I wonder if Nintendo really have done the impossible and made the graphics "on par" with Xbox and PS3 as previously boasted. I'm also interested to see how the tablet integrates with the screen - I was really skeptical when I first heard of the concept, but the more demos I've seen, the more curious I get.
I'm way behind on the games front too, still in the middle of epic sandbox RPG Skyrim, but the games I'd love this Christmas are Black Ops 2, Halo 4 and Assassin's Creed 3.
On the smartphone gaming front, it sure has revolutionised how I play over the last year. I recently got an iPhone, so I've been playing level after level of Angry Birds, Cut the Rope and more recently Letter Press, but there are a score of high quality gamers' games you can get on the platform too - such as Halo Waypoint, Call of Duty Elite and Fifa 13.
What's also very handy for those almost bodily attached to their iPhones are the touchscreen gloves. I've seen pairs from £50 in the Apple store, to a more modest £3 in Primark.
Don't forget the indies!
Indie gaming, especially on PC, has done really well this year. They're not as easy to give as gifts, being largely free or downloadable but there are plenty of quirky and unique titles that, as an added bonus, will likely run on machines more suited to office work than showing off astonishing graphics. Incredipede is a great example that can run in a browser - perfect for quiet December afternoons!
