The Xbox 360, along with cocaine, curbstomping grannies and the aforementioned pregnancy, is incredibly popular with teenagers. This is according to a recent poll in which Microsoft's highly reliable and robust system was shown to be more popular among youths than its rivals.
Of the 4500 teens polled (insert joke about "polling" teens here), 39% wanted a console on Christmas Day. It can be assumed that the other 61% have already stolen their desired electronics for the year. The 360 was the most desired console with 20% of votes, while the Wii earned 19% and the PlayStation 3 only 15%.
The snot-nosed bastards were surveyed via online hangout Habbo, which sounds a bit like "hobo" and "Haribo." That's pretty much all I know about Habbo.

I thought those were all doctors of rigorous academic disciplines screaming at me on Live.
Too right, with the pool being closed and all that.
I dislike the PS3, but I'm incline to agree.
Please tell me the 'gentlemen' in the picture were shortly struck by lighting?
It's just like that. Weed and alcohol to pass time and then when you come to age that you can enter bars and clubs - past the 20's - then you feel the need of an upper like red bull with whiskey or just good ol fashioned cocaine.
Get that cool movie Jimmy named The boys and girls guide to get down. Youll learn a thing or two... not that you will use them thou...
That immediately disqualifies this entire "investigation".
It's like going into hobovilla, then saying that 99% of people are hobos.
Just take a look at Cliffi B. FOR CHRIST'S SAKE!!!
How is a pint of Carling Lager? I don't think that my local Wine & Spirits sell it.
...Ok, now I'm thirsty.
Seriously, why would you bother asking these people anything at all?
