GeekBeat.TV’s Holiday Gift Guide – Entertainment, Games, and… Bacon!

John P.

December 8, 2010 By John P.

For our second gift guide installment, we look at things to pleasantly pass the winter hours – entertainment, games, and of course, all things bacon!

Panasonic Blu-ray Player

The Panasonic DMP-BD65 Blu-ray player gives you a choice. You can watch discs, or content from VieraCast, YouTube, and Netflix.

Apple TV

If you’re not looking for Blu-ray capability, maybe the Apple TV is what you want. You can rent movies and TV shows from iTunes, as well as access Netflix, YouTube, and Flicker.

Roku

If you’re looking for an inexpensive streaming box, and are happy to avoid iTunes, give the offerings from Roku a look. They start at $59 and bring in content from Netflix, Amazon Video on Demand, Hulu Plus, and Pandora.

Boxee Box

One of the newest and most interesting additions to the streaming box market brings together great options from all the other contenders. The Boxee Box has TV shows, movies, Pandora, and over 400 3rd party apps, with the promise of Netflix, Hulu and Roku content by the end of the year.

Netflix

With all these streaming options pulling from Netflix, you definitely want to think about giving access to the service as a gift, either the regular account, or the new streaming-only option.

Dexter DVDs

Yes, it’s a show about a serial killer, but don’t let that put you off! Dexter is really well done!

Microsoft Kinect

Get your whole body into the gaming action with the
Microsoft Kinect
. It’s entertainment and exercise, all at once!

Games from the App Store

If the person on your list has an iPhone, they’ve got a great gaming platform in their hand. Take advantage of it with these cool and addictive games.

Fingerzilla
Doodle Army
Cut the Rope
Words with Friends
Angry Birds

The Beatles on iTunes

Music from The Beatles is a popular gift for people every year. Now, for the first time, you can give these classic albums from the iTunes store, ready for iPods and iPhones.

Bacon Plush Toy

What child’s eyes won’t light up with glee when they see their very own talking bacon plush toy?
