Its Christmas time again! And the big question of the day is... What am i getting for Christmas? DreamCast? (:( ) PS2? (:) ) Or an XBoX? (:D ) Probably wont be a Game Cube... the package is too big....

For those of u that dont know whats going on, which is most of u, here is what happened... Ive been laying down some major hints on my dad to get me an XBoX for Christmas. But he's is such a good liar that i cant tell if he's telling me the truth about me getting a Dream Cast.... But most likely it wont be that because its not like my dad to spoil the surprise of Christmas... But, u never know...:( Of course he's been really enthusiastic about the XBoX before it came out, yet at the same time he is reasuring me that it is a Dream Cast...

The only thing is, the system(we kinda know its one, we also bribed him to tell us....) was sent by the mail, cause it looks/ feels lke one of those big UPS package(the texture and all and it being flimsy and bendable), and is very big...a little too big and heavy for Dream Cast i think... So thats it.... Hope its an XBoX.... Pray for me....:D

LOL. Here's an easy way to find out if your wrapped present is XBox:

1.) Get your tape measure.
2.) Measure across the mystery box. (it should be 15")
3.) Measure the width of the mystery box. (it should be 6")

15" by 15" by 6" is your XBox. :D

Heh.

The UPS box shouldn't be too much bigger than the "system" box itself. So if it resmebles a box slightly bigger than the xbox...its probably an xbox. Thank God I know i am getting an xbox. I don't know what I would do if I didn't know what I was getting!! WHEW! Good Luck Man! and merry christmas ....oh yea, tell me what it is when u find out.

shake the box a bit, if u feel or hear something moving around alot, it might be a dc because the box is small. if you dont feel or hear something moving around alot, its probly an xbox.

Well ts a little bigger than a normal xbox itself... Snoopy7548, u scared me half to daeth when u told me to shake it because it does move around inside:eek: but i do not give up hope yet... well mabey... because this is bigger than just a normal shippng box for the xbox system because the mystery system came with a couple of games and accessories which have been taken out and placed under the tree... so that may be why it is shaking around:) ...yes a dvd player would really suck:(

Maybe your dad knows you are so confident about getting an XBox so he figured you'd peek and shake it to find out - maybe he wrapped the XBox in a different box, and wrapped that different box in an even bigger box just to confuse you. :)

Lightwave, get a scale and weigh the package. It should be close to 8 or 9 pounds.
-Note: Make sure you do this secretly :).
