Nothing beats love, my dear. I mean get him DoA Xtreme Beach Volleyball for the X Box.
I originally wanted a digital camera, since I'm tired of not having any pictures of me. I wasn't really worrying about paying for the video-games that I've been planning on getting because I was planning on getting a job, but since I've been too lazy to go job hunting, I'm probably just going to get a bunch of video-games for Christmas.
I love teh PGQuote:

Or just get Suikoden 3.
I don't really ask for anything. I work, and as such I buy what I need/want, which makes me extremely difficult to shop for. After I've bought these things, however, and all my bills are paid I have very little left to pay for one of my largest addictions: Tattoos. Now, since most people I know (specifically family) would never follow me into a Tattoo shop, I usually just recieve money in exchange for the promise that I don't show them the final product until it's healed.
All in all, I don't ask for anything, and that's a fairly big thing since my B-Day's a week before X-Mas, too. Just not a focus of my lifestyle, you know? My friends are cool with that, cheaper on them. Mom and Dad, on the other hand, can't resist and usually just hand me some cash.
Now, as for your BF. I'm not saying this is %100, but in most cases Fabric=Bad. The book and video game are way cool ideas, though, and you know he wants them. Sounds like you have a plan :)
Buying presents for others is really a hard thing to do, because I've found that buying them simple objects that they currently want, it ends with them not caring about it. I bought my friend things for his truck for his birthday, and he ended up getting a new car not long after.
Sometimes, getting them things that you know they'll appreciate in the long run is what counts. A wallscroll comes to mind - it's a good gift for me, because it'll go on the wall and not come off. Books are good ideas, as long as they are long-standing. My mom bought me one of my favorite books, The Fountainhead, only the bigger, new edition and wrote a note in it. Something that showed that she cared, and it catered to my interests.
Think about your boyfriend - what does he enjoy? If he seems very interested in the way that he is presented, then maybe fashion is the way to go, but I'd suspect that buying him something (considering his interests) in regards to merchandise for an anime may be better. I got a bunch of Evangelion illustrations one year, and I loved that.
He already has the whole Berserk set. What more does a mere mortal man need? Monkeys.
I want an iPod Mini. I mean granted, it's "only" 4GBs and it's $250 compared to the 15GB iPod that's $250 as well, but has anyone seen it? It's smaller and my Samsung e715 cell phone. It's only half an inch thick, 2" wide, and 3.5" tall. My God...it's so damn cute and slick...I gotta have it.
