This is gonna be one rotten Thanksgiving. Xbox 360 shortages mean that oodles of Americans came up short. Like the A-Team on goofballs, Kotaku's back to help ya through this blue holiday season. We've complied a list of 5 ways for the 360-less to avoid the relatives and kill time during T-Day. Feel free to add to this list, because, hey, you could be playing with a new Xbox instead of listening to Uncle Earl tell ya about his trip to the Grand Canyon. Drum roll please.

5. Make faceplates from turkey skin.

4. Paint yer original Xbox white and do next-gen image training.

3. Go to yer local Best Buy and scream "Bundle this!" at anyone within earshot.

2. Email Xbox forums, bitching about how yer new 360 keeps fritzing out.

1. Drink.
