What to get 13yo boy for Christmas

[mom0299]

I am at a loss as to what to tell the grandparents to get for DS. He is 13, plays golf and basketball. He has Wii and XBox. He is only getting two things from me and DH since we are going to WDW for Christmas. He doesn't even know what he wants! (except a new phone and a wireless adapter for the XBox which he is not going to get). I'll take any suggestions you can give me. His 11 yo sister is so much easier to buy for!

You said that the wireless adapter for Xbox is out. But, you might want to reconsider. My son-12 has one. He and his friends play online a lot. It is a way for them to socialize out of school.

We are in a similar situation, DS is 13, he does however want a PS3, which got ordered by grandparents (along with great grandparents and 2 aunts). Other grandparents dont really know what to get him. He said all he wanted is PS3. We too are going to WDW for Christmas! So...grandparents have been told they could buy him a PS3 game, give him cash, a WDW gift card, he is into Holister and Abercrombie so they could buy clothing or gift card there. That is about the only ideas I came up with.

Does he have the on line subscription for his Xbox it is about $50, for the year? (so he can play on line with others) That would be a good thing for the grandparents. My DS loves his. In fact he and another boy from his class where having the best time on Saturday night making and playing a new map for Halo.

Extra wireless controllers are always handy also about $50 or less. -actually on my DS's list to his aunts.

There are a couple new games out right now does he have the new Halo Reach? or the new COD-this was on Amazon and also on Walmart for $29.99,
There is a new Star Wars-Star Wars Force Unleashed 2 out now.
Usually there is always a game or 2 they want.

If he is into basketball have him go to champs.com and see if there is any Michael Jordan Clothing he likes....
