Holiday gift guide: 5 Amazon gifts for gamers
Not sure what to get the gamer on your holiday shopping list? Why not try out some of these great gift ideas from Amazon? Whether your gamer loves their console or their PC, there’s something here to make their holiday season a real treat.
Your favorite gamer might already own one of the year’s hottest games but if they don’t, Grand Theft Auto V should be at the top of their holiday wish list. Get them this game and you’ll be well in their good graces. Whether your gamer has a PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 they can play this game, but fair warning, the Grand Theft Auto series is not meant for younger players. It is extremely violent and vulgar, so you would want to steer clear of this one if there’s a young gamer on your list.
Does your gamer have a desire to learn the guitar? Tell them to put down Rock Band and pick up Rocksmith 2014. This game comes with an actual guitar and according to numerous testimonials, can really teach even a total novice how to play the guitar. Rocksmith 2014 features 50 songs and a session mode that lets players learn how to jam with a virtual band. It’s available on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC/Mac.
PC gamers value their mouse and keyboard combo like some people value prized heirlooms, and the Razer Ouroboros Elite is the cream of the crop. It features an 8200 dpi 4G laser sensor, one of the most advanced sensors available. The Razer can be used plugged in or it can be unplugged for 12 continuous hours via a single AA battery.
If you want to impress with a high-end gift there’s no better option for a PC gamer than an Alienware 18 ALw18-3002sLV gaming laptop. At over $2,000, it’s incredibly pricy, but it has the specs to back up that price point. Inside of this Alienware is an Intel Core i7-4700MQ Processor, 8 GB DDR3L of SDRAM and a 750 GB 7200 rpm hard drive and it’s running on Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit edition.
Sometimes a gamer doesn’t need more games, they just need faster storage! If that’s the case this SanDisk Extreme II is perfect. It consumes less power than a 7,200 RPM hard drive so your battery will last longer and it has plenty of storage for your most played games.
