Guam - There's only 22 shopping days left until Christmas, but don't worry, I'm here to help. In today's edition of Tech This Out, we'll take a look at some gift ideas that were at the top of Christmas lists last year and will probably top most gift lists this year so lets get to it.

A year ago, gamers wanting new gaming consoles asked Santa for expensive gifts like the Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii and PlayStation 3. Thanks to continued high demand and a decrease in price to manufacture gaming consoles, consoles like this year's Xbox 369 Elite and PS3 Slim are a bit more affordable for Santa since they are now priced at a low $199 dollars per system. The Xbox 360 Arcade comes with a controller and 256 megabytes of memory, the PS3 Slim also comes with a controller, but it also plays blue ray DVD's and comes with 120 gigabytes of memory.

If you're really looking for something for kids or the calorie burner in you, pick the Nintendo Wii listed at 199. It comes with the entry level game Wii Sports and a wireless controller. If you're an online gamer, don't forget to pick up your wireless headsets to ensure you can talk strategy or smack against friends and opponents while you play.
