So I got birthday money lying around and cant really think of much I want. When im broke I can think of lots of things lol.
 
Reccomend me something videogame related around $300. I have a 360. So far I've considered a Nintendo DSi, Rockband 2 or a Bunch of 360 games (I have a back catalogue to catch up on.)

No, don't even dare waste your money on that garbage. 
 
I just bought a DSi. The problem with the DSi is that it cost me 170 dollars. 
I have yet to receive it, but I bought it. 
 
Save your monies for a week. Take the whole week to look over game sales, offers, and that sorta stuff. Then start buying up shit one by one.

Save it until you think of something you want. By then you should have more money and more choices to spend it on.

How about getting yourself some movies, maybe a subscription to your favorite porn site, and a big box of sardines.

You could buy an external hard drive and store all your movies there?  Hook that thing up to your 360 and watch everything there?  I question my suggestions all the time.
 
But, if it really is between the choices you've offered us, then I would say buy more 360 games.

Three Hundred $1 hookers or one $300 hooker?

Also thanks for the suggestion, an external hdd is a good idea too, still going to think about it more.

Hire a steward and tell him to get bent every morning. 
 
Or buy some games. 
 
Or PS2 and shitload of games for it, since you don't have 1080p.

J5, if you can't think of something specific to blow it all on, just spend a portion of it for now and save the rest for something you'll really want later on. 
 
Get L4D on the 360 so I can show you how killing zombies is truly done.

I was actually thinking of that Kanji Poster + Tshirt combo. I have been meaning to ask you about your feedback on it now that you've had it for some time. (Maybe take some pics? :D)
 
Also I can tell what type of L4D player you are by your avatar!

Ive already got a PC planned with a 5850 1GB in it. SO thats a seperate thing. That alone will cost 300+.
 
Actually right now im on the verge on spending it on a nice chair. Spend a lot of time in my current one that is broken as hell and is falling apart (isnt even a desk/office chair).

@Johnny5: Dude, why the Tshirt? Are you seriously going to look at that thing in an attempt to memorize kanji? I hardly think so. On the poster, I haven't updated that since July. I'll get back into that once I start learning kanji in class. It is encouraging though, dude, but that's only if you actually take the time to learn the kanji!

 This is funny because i have $300 of birthday money i too have just been deciding what to spend it on. I did the math and i will just have enough to buy the games i want this winter.
 
$70- [PC] Modern Warfare 2
$70- [360] Brutal Legend
$60- [PC] L4D 2
$60- [PC] Dragon Age: Origins
 
That comes out to $260 plus 13% tax and i get $293.80! Just enough. Well actually i spent $20 on junk food last night so i will need to bum an extra $20 from someone but i just got enough! Now i gotta freaking wait for November to roll around for most of these dam games to come out. I'm hoping the L4D2 and Dragon Age will be the usual $50 for PC games but prices went back up here in Canada so i budgeted for the worst. The cock suckers at activison are chargeing the same price as the lesser 360/PS3 ports so it sucks balls that i will have to pay the price for those systems.
