It’s that time of the year when we all take a step back and consider those things which are most important to us.  It’s a good time to take stock and appreciate family, good health, pets, and of course; stuff.

It is also a great time to start planning your Christmas spending. Is your 13th cheque burning a hole in your pocket?  Been saving up all year to treat yourself with an epic Christmas present?

With this in mind we give you MyGaming’s 2009 Christmas wishlist.

PlayStation 3 Slim 250GB Uncharted 2 bundle – R4299 Kalahari.net

The PS3 Slim is smaller, cooler and lighter than the regular PS3 80GB and at its new price it is one of the greatest gifts any gamer could ask for. The extra 130GB hard drive space, along with the inclusion of Uncharted 2 which is the highest rated game of 2009 on Metacritic, makes the 250GB bundle an attractive offering. The 120GB PS3 Slim is also available for R3699.

Sapphire ATi Radeon HD 5870 – R4491 Prohecy..co.za

Easily one of the most desirable pieces of PC gaming hardware on the planet, the ATi Radeon HD 5870 is the fastest single GPU graphics solution ever made. If you have an old 6900GT rattling around in your PC, then it may be time for an upgrade, and if budget allows, then the HD 5870 is a great choice.

Of course if you really hate having money, then the HD 5970 can be had for around R8500, although stock is very limited.

The HD 5850 is also available for around R3500, and is a great product for those who cringe at the HD 5870’s price tag.

Roccat Kave  5.1 surround sound headset – R950 Computersonly.co.za

This 5.1 surround sound gaming headset is arguably the best in its price range. Offering excellent audio quality, unbeatable 5.1 surround sound and a noise cancelling microphone, the Kave has become a firm favorite for enthusiast gamers.

Samsung T260 25.5-inch 1920×1200 LCD R3299 Computersonly.co.za

When it comes to PC monitors it is hard to beat the famed T260 for high-end value. Other screens this size that sport HD+ resolutions generally retail for over R4000. Apart from the high resolution and massive size, the dispay features a solid 5ms response times, 20,000:1 contrast ratio and 160° viewing angles.

Modern Warfare 2 Prestige Edition R1638 Kalahari.net

The console version of Modern Warfare 2 has been received very well, earning a Metacritic rating of 94/100. The Prestige Edition includes a functional pair of night vision goggles.

Five reasons you want the Modern Warfare 2 Prestige Edition

Logitech Z-2300 2.1 Speaker set R1953 Take2.co.za

The Z-2300s are arguably the best 2.1 speakers around. Users rave about the massive bass response, high-end clarity and extreme volume. They may expensive for a 2.1 speaker set, but the 200W RMS, THX Certification and excellent build quality make them the number one choice for many gamers and home entertainment junkies.

Logitech G19 Gaming Keyboard R2034 Take2

OK, so R2000 is a lot for a keyboard, but the G19 does represent the ultra high-end. It features a titalble GamePanel™ LCD that can display game stats, system information, VOIP communication data, video playback, image slide shows and other cool stuff.

It also features twelve programmable G-keys with three macros per key, two powered Hi-Speed USB 2.0 ports that allow users to transfer data to and from peripherals, and of course a full complement of backlit keys.

The price tag is likely to put off most sane people, who may be more interested in the outgoing G15 which goes for around R900.
