I'm thinking a transparent bridge using PF configured with a rule set to block outbound access to whatever remote ports XBL connects to. You could then crontab to specify times to run scripts to enable/disable PF. If the XB360 is connected by cable, put the bridge between it and the router. If the XB360 has the wireless adapter, then put the bridge between the WAN port of the router and the cable box or DSL modem.
