    Could be a video taken on a cell phone and uploaded at the local library, for all we know...

    computers have become a necessity in almost every household, so thats not too suspicious...and theyve gotten pretty cheap/affordable

    As for the camcorder.....have you ever been to Acres Homes? Very poor housing. Lots of poor people....yet you'll see Lexus's and Escaldes sittin on 24's parked in the grass. some people just have their priorities in the wrong place

    ACCORDING to the description he GOT THE 360 that was just a prank because they saw him trying to sneak a look at his presents before it was time.

    Me too. I don't want to see his face when he realizes what happened. If it's real, it's inexcusable. I don't have a problem with parents not buying their kid an XBox 360, but I have a big problem with parents who would get their kid's hopes up only to bring them crashing down. And I also have a big problem with people who find it humorous. In my opinion, that kind of thing is a prevalent problem. Some people seem to have zero compassion, and what is even more sickening is that they're proud of it. They act like they're in junior high.

    For a second I thought the parents didn't know what the box wasand they were just using it as a box.

    Someone didn't get a shiny bicycle. Whhhhaaaaa.

    You are completely wrong. This type of stuff toughens kids up. It's a good lesson to learn.

    The only way that would be remotely funny is if you handed him the Actual X-box after a minute or so...otherwise that is just stinking cruel.

    Even then, you don't laugh at a kid obviously fighting back tears because of a crushing blow like this.

    "Look in the camera and cry." :(

    Poor kid.

    That was horrible. Just seeing the kid there in disbelief from thinking he got it... and then disbelief that his family would do something like that to him.
    Good thing is I saw this on Engadget.com and they said they were going to send him one with some games.

    This should be child abuse. The parents should be held responsible for this crime.
