    Do you know if there are any notable differences between a Xbox controller and a Steam controller when playing games on Steam? My boyfriend spends a lot of time playing games on Steam and I was wondering if the Stream controller would suit him better than his Xbox 360 controller! I'm somehow struggling coming up with presents ideas for him this Christmas.


    And that giant Snorlax pillow is suuuuuch a good idea! Little Eevee will look adorable on it. <3
    I'm always tempted to buy one when I see pictures on Internet, but there's no way it would fit in my room.

    I haven't used an Xbox controller, but I like the idea of the Steam one having pre-optimised settings for the games. I read a bunch of reviews that led me to believe it would be worth it; that said, we've only ordered one to start with, and will pick up a second if we're happy with it. I can let you know how it goes, if you'd like.

    I live in America so it was only $75 for me. I thought it was pretty steep as well but then I found an unboxing video on Reddit's South Park subreddit and it convinced me it was worth it. =p And there's also a pin of Randy with giant balls that he uses as a bouncy ball, a token commemorating the 20th season, a poster of "20 seasons of Cartman", stickers, a vinyl of Butters as Professor Chaos, and then a cake pop pan that is Chef themed. And safe space policially correct crime scene tape, courtesy of PC Principal I guess.

    I would definitely love if you could keep me updated about how pleased you are with the Steam controller!

    I might also just buy him a Steam game from his wishlist instead as I am not sure if he's using his Xbox controller because that's what he prefers or if it's only because he already had one on hand.

    Yeah, I had a look at the unboxing too, after seeing your post. There is some cool stuff, but I couldn't justify the overseas price.

    (you need an account to see links) is a link that has some specs about the Snorlax pillow. It set us back ~$250AUD, which isn't so bad when you consider I first looked at it when it was available in Japan only and was going to cost ~$700AUD (including shipping).

    I asked for some Rick and Morty shirts that are appropriate for work and some action figures from Batman: Arkham Knight.

    I really don't want anything besides some new speakers for my car but I can't ask my family for that.

    I would love a Sephora or Ulta GC and one to Starbucks also. I also want Pokemon Moon but I'll probably buy that myself.

    I usually give more than I get though. My number 1 priority is to make sure my kids get a good Christmas.

    I really want a guitar this year, so for Small Business Saturday today, I went to a local guitar shop and picked one out that I want. I've been wanting to learn to play for a long time, but I haven't had the money to invest in a decent guitar. I'm really excited!
