Well I convinced my parents that the 360 was worth it by telling them that it has the best online play out of alll the consoles and that all my friends had it. Not to mention that it has gone down in price since it first came out. If your parents don't want you playing video games at all then you have a problem. Just keep bugging them until they give in.

Be mature about it and tell them you won't use it 24/7 or become addicted like some kids. I assume your under 17 which means let them look at the ESRB ratings on games before they let you get it.

It took me weeks of whining and complaining before I was allowed to get my 360.

It was with my money as well. I had a paper route, so it was fine.

My dad didn't care, it was my mother that wouldn't let me.

Now that I have a part time job I can buy anything I want, like this computer I'm on now that costs 2k.

Well Im a parent and I dont let my son play anything M rated at all. He can have whatever else he wants though.

The reason I like the 360.

Big time parental control to where I can even set it to how many HOURS he plays. and games like Banjo Kazooie, Viva Pinata, all the sports games.

As long as hes not on XBL Im okay, and playing the games that he SHOULD be playing. Its no way he can even sniff Gears 2, or any M rated game.

If you haven't been able to convince them the last 3 years, then you are S.O.L. unless you are able to come up with the cash yourself :)
