    Might not be that bad. You can see in his eyes that he is planning to succeed and one day will become rich. And when his family members ask why he won't share any of his wealth with them, he can now show them this video.

    Or he can murder his family. Either way, they are screwed. You do not mess with a kid with a blond afro.

    On top of that, knowing the internet, if enough people see this, someone out there will know the kid and actually get him his 360.

    That was jacked. At the same time, I'm kind of old school in how I really detest how today's kids think that they deserve and are owned crap on holidays. I know it'll be hard to not spoil my children when I have them, but at the same time I don't want them to think everything is free and all you have to do is say "it's my birthday I want a car."

    Again though, the joke here was uncalled for. You could tell the kid was in disbelief at first, so he seemed to genuinely appreciate it...if it were true.

    I could see Microsoft turning this into a commercial where they film the kid opening a PS3 box, gets a bag of kitty litter and is happy -- then this. Terrible, but some of the racist comments in reply on the original user's profile are worse. Hopefully the kid ends up with a 360.

    Who need an xbox when you can have a Wii?

    Maybe this could be a good thing. What if he got that xbox then plays Halo3 all day and decided to think head shots are awesome and start shooting it up in real life?

    according to the Youtube discription, the kid peaked at his present so they decided to play this prank. I don't know if it's true or not, but they claimed that he got the XBox 360...., though I'm not sure if I could believe someone that could play with their kid's feelings.

    Still wrong imo.

    He's going to get something out of this. Apparently MS and other companies have contacted Engadget as well saying that if they find the kid they would like to give him some things.

    Maybe new parents?

    Damn I wish my parents would play stupid pranks on me like that and then posting it on youtube. I may be too old for that, but I am told I look almost a decade younger sometimes.

    Maybe just a little suspicious. How much would a digital camcorder and a computer (to upload the video) cost vs. an Xbox?

    Same here.

    The sad thing is if this kid gets a free Xbox360, his parents will probably feel validated in their prank. "See? Not only did you get a 360...we didn't have to even pay for it! Ok, so we made you feel like ****...all's well that ends well get over it sucka."

    BTW, childhood resentment is the gift that keeps on giving.
