I think it would be very difficult to hide the monolith that is the Xbox 360 power brick. I'd do it with some thick cable ties with sticky mounting pads.

I hide mine behind my subwoofer.

 

EDIT: for your case, you could duct tape it to the back of your monitor :P May not be the safest option however.

Use a few strips of Velcro.

 

EDIT: Long strips that run the entire length of the power brick. And mount it vertically, not horizontally.

Use a few strips of Velcro.

Not sure if the glue could withstand the heat for extended periods, especially with the weight of that thing.

Could try some simple 'Z' brackets and screw it in underneath the desk?

I use zip ties/ Velcro to strap the power bricks for my monitors to the back on my desk legs. If I'm not mistaken, the brick for the 360 is huge, so you may want to hide it behind something like a subwoofer. Unless your desk is quite thick, then you may be able to strap it to the back of the the back of the desk.

You could get some really good car mounting take or a really big peace of Velcro, you could also use metal tie down strips.
