Forums - PC Discussion - The Secret Santa PC Event

I'm wondering why there weren't Secret Santa PlayStation events, Secret Santa Xbox events or Secret Santa Switch/3DS events in all these years.

There are also PS Store sales, Xbox Marketplace sales and eShop sales in the weeks before christmas.

I know that there was a Wii Secret Santa thread back in the day, which may event predate the PC one, but I don't know if there were also ones for PS3/360.

And well, even if those threads existed, some of the members that made them may no longer be here and, for one reason or another, no one took over. To put that in context: as far as I know there's been at least 5 different users that held the PC Secret Santa thread: noname, Stefl, Raven, Rhonin and me. So yeah, it's a shame, but it's not that surprising.

Join I guess?

You... guess?

SegaHeart, pal, this is not something you have to do or feel forced to be part of. You'll be more than welcome if you want to join us, but it's voluntary and there's nothing wrong if someone deson't want, or can't, take part in it.

Tell you what, there are still a few days before deadline so why don't you think about it a bit more and, if you decide that you really want to take part in it, then just come and post your Steam/GOG id and wishlist?

If you decide that you want to join the fun, then great! The more, the merrier. And if the answer is that you don't want to do it this year, then that's also perfectly ok. No judgements nor hard feelings.

I have 2 steam ID one is very embarassing ID name, the other is Hacked I cant buy anything but the hack steam account is called dx11332sega

Okay. Your post raises two red flags that need to be adressed:

1.- You want to take part in the event with a hacked Steam account? Really?

2.- What do you mean that you can't buy anything? In a Secret Santa you'll recieve something but also have to gift something. If you can't buy anything, you can't gift anything and you can't fulfill your end of the bargain.

Yeah, dx11332sega was hacked from buying games, I kinda have another account but it's an embarrasing name maybe should DM you the name if allowed? Cant run AAA games though since in 2020's I'm poor but it already runs tekken 7 but the name is so not acceptable I made that Steam ID in 2011.

I'm not going to lie. I'm not comfortable letting someone participate with a hacked account. I you want, tell me the name of the other account and we'll see if it's appropiate or not (Yuri has given his account some "peculiar" names over the years) but, as I said, I'm not ok with a hacked account.

There's also the other aspect that you can't buy games from Steam to gift to your Tiny Tim, but the games can be bought from other stores, like the Humble Store, without too much problem.

K, thanks. Maybe I should bow out the other account name is too much I'm blushing currently.

The fact that GTA V and Skyrim are on this blows my mind!  Talk about legs!

Skyrim is more impressive given that it doesn't have an online component, that results comes from games being sold, whereas GTA has the online side and people can buy shark money for it.

At the same time, that CS:GO manages to be Platinum being a free to play title says a lot.
