A Guide to Gamer boys #2 What should I get him D:


Presents for birthdays, christmas, ...
You don't give away presents on these days? Well then, you could skip this part. But every boy loves getting presents. Why not give him one here and then? There are a lot of present-possibilities these days. Movies, clothes, parfume, .. and you could spend all day online or in the city choosing the right thing for him. And as soon as he sees it, he's some kind of disappointed or maybe he doesn't like it. 

Games
Oh come on. You already realized that he's into games. A LOT. Why don't you just give him the new game he wanted? Or that special game he talked about? Maybe some old game he played when he was young? Please don't tell yourself not to, just because you don't know much about games. It's pretty easy. Have you ever heard about Steam, Origin or something like that? Maybe the PSNetwork, depending on the kind of games he plays? There are possibilities to mark favourite games and often there is a wishlist. And people don't put things on wishlists if they don't want to have them, right? SO just check out his wishlist. OR get him a paysafe card. This might be the easiest version of all (and the one with the less thoughts put in it, but he won't care, I guess.)

Objects
Did you know how much merchandise there is for games? So if you know some of his favourite games or even characters, you could get him something with that stuff on. (Maybe not a pen, or a makeup-bag, just sayin'). But there a lot of cool posters or action figures. Maybe a pillow. 
[Edit: My boyfriend told me, that almost everything is okay as long as that game is on. Maybe not a basecap, if your boy isn't into wearing them. And according to him, even plushies are fine. He's actually jealous because I have a Poro (League of Legends) and he doesn't.]

Events
-Before you read this, please remember I'm from germany and I don't know where you're from-
Some people like concerts, right? There is something like this for gamers. Sometimes, for example LOL, has events like the finals at the end of every season, and you can buy tickets for it. Or Conventions, like the gamescom (which is awesome by the way). I bet he'd love to get one or more tickets for it. 
The negative thing about it: he might not take you with him. Please don't expect him to do so, especially if he knows that you're not that interested in games. Just use that day/evening for a nice meeting with your girls or other friends instead ;).
