I put it on my list and since my sister knows what Im getting (parents tell her what im getting, tells me what she is getting)and she said it was "video game related" and "Our cousin has it" (our cousin owns an xbox 360), the signs are pointing to an xbox.

Anyways, I wanna know if there is anything I should know about the system, any games I should get (dont recommend shooters, I hate them with a passion.), and any things I should look out for with an xbox 360 so I can avoid mistakes that could end up having to deal with microsoft warranty staff.

I miss when almost every game had at least one sort of cheat or unlockable that might not even change the game, but just makes it more fun. COD kinda has it with Nazi Zombies, but that's about it. I remember asnowboarding game that I still play a lot on my Gamecube called SSX: On tour. There was cheats so you can play as Mario, Luigi, a metalhead, and even A UNICORN! That's right. A snowboarding unicorn. You could dress your cahracter up as a panda or a bunny. A lot of the old tony hawk games had fun cheats like big head, gorrilla, invisibility, moon gravity. That's why I like nintendo--because all of their games have some crazy fun theme. (Whoever invented the Kirby games must have been on acid.) I just wish that games would still do that more.
