Just tell her it's the funnest game out right now because you can create your own character and it's a blast to play teams on XBL. It's more like a sport game to you. If it starts to cause a problem, tell her she can take it and trade it in anytime she feels it's necessary. You won't even protest. Offer to do chores! Offer to trade in games you won't play anymore to ease the cost of the game. Do not do this all at once.
The first time, say "Hey mom? Can I get that game if I have my homework done every night before I play it?" If that doesn't work, give it 2 days. Then, "Hey mom? Do you think I could get that game if I mow the lawn/do dishes, whatever." Be persistent, but don't nag 
If you get it and she does decide to get rid of it. Don't even protest. Just say "Ok mom, thanks for letting me try it out anyway." She'll remember that the next time you want a game she doesn't want you to have.
