I lol'd. Not at the kids misfortune, but at what Christmas has become. The saddest thing is, there are kids in the world who would get as excited about getting those clothes as the kid in the first video who did get the 360. I think its disgusting we've turned Christmas into such an event where its sooo heartbreaking to get given some clothes instead of an Xbox...

QFT

TV and other forms of media indoctrinates the young into pre-conditioning of material items. When I look back at what I use to be happy for and what I wasn't, I saw myself as a fool.

It's one thing to give a kid clothes over an XBox and another thing entirely to mock them by giving them an empty XBox box with clothes in it. They could have likely given him any number of things that he would have loved but to throw an empty box with the intention of stirring him is in many ways rather sick on the parents behalf.

Now I believe later on he got the console itself but still, teasing a child like that, likely with the intention of putting it online given they had the camcorder rolling is not right in my books.

Besides, people can say "back in my day I was happy with a shirt or a book" all they like but if you step back you will see its those same people who were happy with so little 20+ years ago that have more or less turned Christmas into the commercial holiday many perceive it to be today. It's not like its the children advertising the products or selling these items to one another, its the adults from yesteryear's.

I would go crazy too if I were his age and exposed to the current-gen technology. Too bad, my parents would never gift me anything remotely like this and I've never ever seen a game console in person.

These videos along with the Hitler videos are so ****ing annoying. They weren't that funny to begin with never mind being parodied every holiday.

Psychologically speaking from your point of you

When you see so much attention being put on these videos, you deter from the crowd because it seems idiotic to laugh at it. However if you saw those videos without knowing that the majority of people on the net or in public watched these videos and just jabber about it being hilarious you yourself would find these hilarious. This happens to me all the time, when people get into something I use to like I end up not paying attention to it anymore.

That or people are just making the same joke over and over. I don't think its a case of being an individual...more like listening to the same song on repeat one too many times. Eventually the joke gets old.

Exactamondo :yes:

I laughed at the N64 video first time and less and less each time. Never really found any of the parodies funny at all.

First kid I ever saw humping his 360 :laugh:

I remember being pumped up with joy when my parrents bought me my N64 w/ Star Fox.

Games these days don't carry that excitement I use to have.

Never have carried that much excitement, you mean?!! :whistle:

Somebody slap that irritating kid!!

    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed

      Yes, it was amusing at the time because even then dbrand was well known for stealing the designs of products from other companies. That’s what they do.

      Didn’t Dbrand once complain that Casetify was ripping off their designs a well? seems pretty bad of them to try and get around Valve’s copyright this way with that in mind.

      Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed by David Uzondu Image via Dbrand Dbrand has cancelled its highly anticipated Companion Cube enclosure for the Valve Steam Machine, which it teased back in November of last year with a concept render and sign-up page, because it did not ask Valve for permission first before manufacturing the case. According to Dbrand, it took the "backwards approach" of building the product first before asking for permission from the copyright holder. Seven months of work went into the project, requiring over a thousand engineering hours from the design team. Workers developed forty-four sets of injection molding tools, making a unique mold for each sub-component of the crate. When the Companion Cube went live on Monday last week, it, according to Dbrand, quickly became the second-fastest-selling product in the company's fifteen-year history, racking up orders for hundreds of thousands of units. Customers eagerly bought the $129.95 deluxe edition or the bare-bones $99.95 version, which the manufacturer cheekily branded as the "Poverty Cube". It was around this time that the legal eagles at Valve descended on the accessory maker with a formal demand. The developer pointed out that the iconic block design remains protected intellectual property from the game Portal, so unlicensed sales had to stop. Dbrand said that all its pleas to salvage the project with the Valve team, including proposals to run a properly licensed release under official terms "with their blessing", fell on deaf ears, so it had no choice but to obey and remove every trace of the product from the internet. If you bought the enclosure, the company said that banks will process your refund by the end of this week, but if it still hasn't arrived in your account by then, you should not hesitate to contact support. The Steam Machine itself is a high-performance console that Valve designed directly to bring PC gaming into the living room. It was announced on 12th November 2025 (the same day Dbrand announced the Cube) and runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, the same OS that powers the Steam Deck. As for the price, due to the shortage of memory and storage chips, the hardware cost landed much higher than people were expecting, starting at $1,049 for the 512 model (without a controller) or $1,128 with the new gamepad. The premium 2 TB model pushes those prices even higher, selling at $1,349 for the standalone console and hitting $1,428 if you want the bundle.
