No he should take away his Xbox, internet, and other technology access. He should assign more chores and have the kid make enough money to buy back his access. Say half the cost of the Xbox if it is shared. He should NOT ground him from sports or other activities that encourage time away from video games. He should also limit play dates and sleepovers where he would have access to video games for the duration that he has lost his Xbox privileges.
The parents could use the time of reflection that accompanies the naughty corner.
