Weekend Confirmed 90 - Miyamoto, Live update, Rayman Origins
by Garnett Lee, Dec 09, 2011 11:00am PSTThe Weekend Confirmed crew starts getting into the holiday spirit as Jeff, "Indie" Jeff, and Christian sit down with Garnett for this show. The buzz around misinterpretations of Miyamoto's plans for the future and the new Xbox Live dashboard and its mobile apps kicks things off. We know Jeff loves loving things, and it's obvious he's found a new object of his affection in Rayman Origins. No less fun, but definitely fun of a different sort, Saints Row the Third has Christian enjoying the freedom to fool around without feeling like he's missing out on anything. And of course there's your comments and stories, more news, and Finishing Moves to complete the package.

There's no set criteria about what they need to be, other than that they relate the two. Shopping, memorable new releases, playing with family, presents, Christmas Day stories, whatever they may be, if you're willing to share, we'd love to add them to our holiday program.
Please do be sure you're comfortable having the story posted here and potentially read on the show.

On Christmas Eve, my sister brought out a strange gift bag with my name on it and put it under the tree. The following morning, the PSP box was sitting, unwrapped, under the tree next to that gift bag. When I went to open the box, I noticed that it had been tampered with. Inside was my graphic calculator, wrapped up in tissue paper, with the message "Gotcha!" written on the screen.
As it turns out, my mom had lost patience with my "talent," and decided to enlist my sister to wrap each individual component of the PSP starter kit in three layers of duct tape and put them into the accompanying gift bag. Missing from the gift bag was the PSP itself, which my sister brought to me from my mom's purse. They have never done anything like this since (my mom says it's too much work), but there are no presents for me under the tree until Christmas morning.
