Having problems finding a gift for that one person because you don’t know what to get them? KTLA’s Rich DeMuro is here with a list of tech gifts sure to please the recipient. Plus Microsoft announces a deal with Nintendo and Valve to make Call of Duty available for the Switch and Steam for ten years. And The Information’s reports Microsoft wants to develop a new “super app” that would combine shopping, messaging, web search, games and news feeds.

Simply Hating a Terrible Christmas Song - GDI 4410 starts at 30:11

Rich continues his gift giving suggestions. Be careful with those lasers. How clean is your pond water? Polliwog and tadpole are different words for the same thing. Don't spell it in Pokémon. BTS talk takes over. Sarah and Scott have a spat over Christmas songs. How sexy do you want your Santa? Are you a fan of fruitcake? What Christmas song would you never listen to? Should Tom start writing Xmas songs? Just stop Jackson 5, stop. What songs do you think are wintery but not specify about Christmas? Are you or your family a fan of Mannheim Steamroller? Why does Roger think Toyota ruined Christmas? Did you know Alf was a puppet?

Starring Tom Merritt, Sarah Lane, Scott Johnson, Rich DeMuro, Roger Chang, Joe.
