    Well, that could vary. Do you have any idea as to what he likes. If you know that you can probably think of something to get him.

    The "perfect" gift would be to give him some money so he can get whatever he wants.

    Fast, easy, and I highly doubt he'd complain about it being a bad gift. :p

    Money for christmas would never go in my family, it's just so impersonal and cold. If you really don't know what your brother might like then you should probably spend some more time with him.

    sorry for not replying earlier(went to sleep :-[) but what my big brother likes is i think games just like me
    and he has an xbox 360. SO, maybe a live ID or a good game. if anyone owns an xbox
    360 and knows some great games please reply, thanks. ;)

    PS. money wouldn't do, not in my family... :-\

    Well, I have no idea what types of games your brother likes...

    For a shooter, you could get him Gears of War (1 or 2) / Fallout 3 / Left 4 Dead...all of them look pretty fun =p

    For an RPG Fable 2 (loved the first one, never tryed the second one though =/)

    Because both looked really good :p. Thx, Datanotfound for the great suggestions.

    Peace and quiet. Solitude is always a nice gift.......but then again, I'm introverted.

    Hmm for your big brother ehh, hmmm it really depends on what he likes and enjoy most. If he's a huge fan of games and leans towards hard core graphics and fps games then get him a ps3 or a high end pc, if he's a casual gamer give him psp or ds (or dsi if possible). Lastly though if he likes getting chicks then give him one I mean an organize date with one of your friends older sister < should be pretty and hot lol. ^___^ or if you cant give him one of those give him cookies

    @asibrycec

    Cookies!

    @Renji217

    i think my brother is more of a shooter guy so i will probably get him GoW and my plan B

    Hmph - recommendations. All of which are shooters, excluding Castle Crashers. And all of which are rated "M", excluding Castle Crashers (should that matter, and it looks as if it doesn't from other posts/posters).

    Dead Space - excellent atmosphere, fantastic gunplay and an involving story make for a wholly frightening and amazing experience. Not for the faint of heart.

    Fallout 3 - a beautifully immersive game universe with all the exploration that you'll ever need. Again, not for the faint of heart or easily sickened.

    Castle Crashers (LIVE game) - hilariously fun multiplayer game that takes from side-scrolling beat-'em-ups of old and makes it even more fun. Great for parties.

    Left 4 Dead - multiplayer bliss + fantastic atmosphere, characterization, and ghoulies = four metric tons of awesome.

    Bioshock - still the best 360 game there is.

    Otherwise, if you can't think of any 360-related gifts, a LIVE account/points would be great, especially if you have some games you've been eying or want to play online. And if you REALLY want to break the mold, you could get a gift that is NOT a game but is still meaningful/hilarious on a personal level. You'd never think that a mailbox would be a good gift, but my group of friends turned it into the best, most ironic, most hilarious gift to have ever been given.
