Would be cool for some free XBLA game or something. Or some cool announcement of a game that will come very soon that we didn't know about.

They got a service pack for your scsi port.
Seriously though, I think their "present" is the group of 5 games that are half price right now (zuma, bankshot billiards 2, and some other games I dont remember).

No that's not a present, thats just part of their XBLA Hits (http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/arcadehits/default.htm) line.
I was expecting free gamerpics/theme or a free movie rental from XBLVM but oh well.

Yeah, they did but they were kinda hidden. You could only get them by refreshing the markeplace pages until you got the Halloween theme and Halloween pics options under the marketing windows.

They did give something. There was an email that was sent out that linked to a lame "game" that got you some wallpaper or something in the end. The game was something like getting a plastic army man to land on a target.

The first year out was the free Christmas Kameo theme, which has never made a reappearance.

I remember that now, I wish that wasn't the gift though.

They gave us a gift! A happy holidays video message from Major Dickhead and a bunch of people you've never heard of from Microsoft!
GOD BLESS US EVERYONE!

I got 2 free games with my xbox 360 when I bought one before Christmas, even though they aren't my personal prefferance, i'm sure there's kids out there that enjoy them.
