From "crazy insane xbox addict"... i would say an xbox game? (preferably one he doesn't have...)

Or some stickers so he can stick them onto his xbox.

Or buy him a ps3 so he can not feel biased towards microsoft

Presents don't have to have a high monetary value... it can be something small that means a lot. He'd appreciate that more than if you bought him 'just a present', as you would appear different from others :)

LOL. Yeah, EB Games Vouchers... are relatively cheap I think... and are gold if your if doubt. If your unsure then just get the voucher and let your friend decided the game that he wants to get since he's into the XBOX.

Is it his 18th? Wallet, belt, shot glasses and other random things could work.

A fake expensive watch... thus making it not 'expensive' but he will open it and be amazed. Doubt anyone can tell the difference without a magnifying glass
