Can you not set up passwords on the xbox when it boots up? Pretty sure there is something like that which means he can't use it without knowing the password.

(My little brother did exactly this, I then realized what a douche I had been. Sharing is the tits, y'all)

^This though i don't believe there is anything to stop him creating new profiles/downloading his own

I think this is the best idea so far? I'm not buying kinect so he won't be able to navigate in it. Great idea.

You can password protect gamertags, but I think that might only be if you try to access xbox live, meaning he'd still be able to play games offline on the console. Don't quote me on that though. There are parental controls though, which you could set up on his gamertag, but that wouldn't stop him just using your gamertag (although if he wanted his own achievements etc he might prefer not to do that). You could restrict his account from playing all the games that you own, or if you wanted to have a little fun you could set it to allow him the minimum amount of playtime per day before he gets kicked, maybe 10mins or something like that. There isn't anything that I'm aware of that could stop him from creating new accounts, but I imagine if you kept deleting them he'd get pretty sick of having to restart all the games he's played.

Good idea buuut. I'm not getting Xbox Live in one month. I am buying the Xbox along with NFS: hot pursuit; all what I wanna play is single player on that. Once I buy Halo I buy Xbox live.

Dude, the only reason I am buying an Xbox is to.
My PC really sucks I can barely run any of my games, and I can't afford a new PC.
So I could play all the Halo games that weren't released for PC

I'm pretty sure you can parental lock the system up. If not at least restrict it to play only kids games without password. Charge him a dollar every time he wants you to enter the password.

You could always just take the power cord with you, or the gamepads.

You can set a timer i'm sure to one of the accounts, if yours is master account his is the limited account or something like that.

I'm buying an Xbox 360 in around 2 months. I want to use it but my problem is that I don't have my own room. So I will be forced to hook it up to the TV in the living room. My big brother LOVES consoles and he will hog it and use it forever. But he wont chip in the payment. Is there some way I can restrict him from using it?
