Of course, with a little bit of shopping around, you can get yourself all of the gaming equipment that you’re going to need to take your hobby to the next level. But not all of us can keep up to par on the hottest hardware, accessories or peripherals.
So here’s a mini-guide to some of best gift-choices for the gaming geeks in your life:

Consoles

If you have plenty to spend, why not upgrade your man to the very latest console, or encourage him to diversify a little by getting him one he doesn’t already have? The heavyweights in console gaming are of course the Xbox One X and the PS4 Pro, and top end versions of these with all the latest enhancements and plenty of memory to store the data from all those long hours of gaming can be a pricey but very welcome present for any games fan.

A USB gamepad (i.e. controller) for the computer

Some computer gamers prefer to use a gaming mouse and gaming keyboard keyboard for first-person shooters, but other genres typically call for a decent, console-style controller. With developers skewing their efforts towards console gaming, many games are simply meant to be played with a controller. Of course, if you’re willing to buy yourself a decent gaming pad for the computer, then you won’t have to worry about playing with inferior controls. They’re available in both wired and wireless formats, and they typically cost around sixty dollars. Serious gamers prefer controllers for third person action games, console-style role-playing games, and racing games.

An external, USB capture card

Many gamers enjoy capturing videos of their exploits and sharing them on the Internet, which is precisely what capture cards are for. Typically speaking, gaming consoles are hooked up to capture cards via standard audio-video cables, although high-definition component cables and HDMI cables are compatible with the more expensive capture set-ups. Coupled with video-capturing software, these USB devices make it easy for gamers to create tutorials, video montages, and audio commentaries. These devices are the perfect gift for gamers seeking professional work in video production, games journalism, and strategy guide creation.

Accessories

Plenty of accessories are available for console and PC gaming, including joystick style controllers for PC gamers, headsets to allow you to communicate with other players in online games, and for the Wii, all sorts of controller adapters that can turn your Wii controller into anything from a steering wheel to a golf club. You can also get professional headphones, which block out or mask all external sound, which not only will allow them to get even more absorbed in the gameplay but will allow everybody else to get some peace while they do! Another option is some of the specially designed gaming chairs. These are made not only to provide comfort during those long sessions of fighting, driving or shooting but also have built-in surround speakers and in some case a vibration effect that responds to the game.
