    SOME GOOD XBOX TITLES FOR KIDS

    Anything Crash Bandicoot
    Anything Sonic the Hedgehog
    Shrek
    The Incredibles (Features hitting and shooting but no blood or gore, so older kids)
    MX Unleashed (Motorcycle Racing in dirt)

    More as I find them.


    SOME BAD XBOX TITLES FOR KIDS
    Almost anything martial-arts-y; they seem to have gone in for weapons and blood in every one I've checked.
    Return to Castle Wolfenstein (of course)
    Anything by Tom Clancy (of course)
    GRAND THEFT AUTO.  What are parents THINKING of, to let their kids anywhere near this thing?
    Oddly, anything which calls itself any variation of "Extreme Volleyball".  Either a lot of bare babe skin, or blood and broken bones.

    Gotta go.  Later.

    the Tekken games don't seem to have weapons, and at least one has a bowling game included in it. Cheers.
