Say all your friends who have one and say there are lots of 3+s
The Xbox 360 is quite expensive for some families but there are now great deals on just for Christmas.
I had to buy my own, and I'm only 12. But I told my parents if I didn't have enough money then I would work for the rest.
by begging ofcourse
Ask why they wont let you have xbox live firstly. Say that you have it wirelessly and that your parents can have full control of how long you play the xbox, what games you can play etc. Ensure your parents that its something you really want.
You tell them that you would try very hard in studying for school. Also, another thing I am doing is telling them that I am trying to get straight A's. And right now is working VERY good!!! =)
sometimes but not always
I always called it an Xbox controler.
