DCFC Fan, a member of xbox360fanboy.com, recently posted a picture of his new Xbox 360, still in packaging and with a Dave and Buster’s prize redemption receipt stuck to the outside.

That’s right: DCFC Fan won his new console through months of Slide Master, Throttle Up, and perhaps even Skee Ball, finally accumulating enough tickets to walk home with the first of the next-gen system and a place in geek history.  Sharing the secrets of his success, DCFC Fan explains: “A tight grip over and under the knob, and keep your ball still.  Oh, and use that strategy on the game Throttle Up.”

The folks over at Kotaku estimate that Dave and Buster’s 85,000 ticket price (heh!) for the item translates into roughly $850, but for DCFC “it was all about the experience and many nights there spent hanging out with friends.” 

Anyway, follow the source link to the Xbox 360 Fanboy forums, and help DCFC decide what games to buy for his prize.
