Gifts for gamers
Gamers usually know exactly which games they want, and they may already own the console or computer they play on. That makes the safest gifts the accessories that make long sessions more comfortable.
Find out which platform they use before you buy anything at all. Controllers, headsets and cables are often tied to one system. A gift card for their platform's store lets them pick a game they really want.
Comfort is underrated. A better chair, a decent headset or a larger mouse pad changes the whole experience. Board games and card games can also be a good surprise for a gamer who loves playing with friends in the same room, and they give everyone a welcome break from the screen.
