This year I've developed a great relationship with my little bro, he's 10 years old, and we both like video games, but my parents are REALLY strict on the "no M games until your old enough" policy. He's aloud to play T games though, so are there any respectable 'T' games for the Xbox 360?

Not that I'm aware of unless Armored core 4 is rated T.

Personally not a fan of the 360 though as most of the games seem to be, well, as you described using the M rating as a selling point and those that are not are on PC. You may have to look around some but I'm sure it has a few. Still this is why I like being the cool big sister who can jam out on Brawl or set my brothers up with a D&D game

Assuming they have similar ratings as they do in England Tomb Raider: Underworld, Mass Effect and Fable 2 are all pretty good.

Call of Duty 2 and 3, GRAW, and Fight Night Round 3 come to mind. Then there's always XBLA or Sports games.

Unfortunately Mass Effect and Fable 2 are M rated (Damn those blue aliens for being so easy to.... have a heartfelt conversation with.)

And this.

It depends what he likes, I suppose. I really enjoyed the Civilization and EndWar games.
As for shooters, Call of Duty 2 really does rock my socks. I mean, I'm playing CoD 4 now, but if I couldn't play M rated shooters, I'd head right back to it.

I also really enjoyed Forza 2 and I've heard Need for Speed: Undercover is heading back to the gameplay that was actually good (Like 'Most Wanted'). So those are some racing options (Oh, and Burnout: Paradise was alright).

Naw, ME's M.

Try Mirror's Edge. The Cods (besides 4 and W@w) are T as well.

Dude, pick up Portal. It's not exactly long but it's T for Teen and I'm sure you know it's respectable.

Mass Effect and Fable 2 are actually rated M for Mature over here (not sure about Tomb Raider). Besides, Mass Effect is a bit of a mature story for your average 10 year old and Fable 2 is just all around to mature for one.

Really? Mass Effect got rated 12 over here.

Still Tomb Raider is a fairly solid game for the 360.

While its not rated M, I really would not let a kid play a CoD game. Its just me but I think the depiction of shooting violence like this might screw up a 10 year old. yes yes I know its a horrible thing for a gamer to say but personally I would steer clear of that. Plus you run the risk of turning him into one of those FPSer gamers who thinks teabagging is funny and obsesses about achievements and multilayer...

Maybe just go with D&D. Its better for kids anyways.

I think teabagging's funny :(
However, only like once every 100 games or so, when someone so richly deserves it. Same with Teamkilling, but make that once every 1000 games.

Hard to list any since most of the AAA titles for the 360 are M-rated. I would say Portal: Still Alive on the XBLA. If he likes JRPGs, get Tales of Vesperia. It needs more fans. If I recall, Battlefield: Bad Company is T-rated. There is also Mirror's Edge. Now I'm out of ideas.

Yes, why are the Tales games not coming to the Wii where it may actually have some fans? I guess it kind of worked to get people in japan to buy 360s but its annoying. Put it on the PS3 or Wii!

"Mirror's Edge, Prince of Persia, The Force Unleashed" (which was decent, not great)... can't think right no playing "The Last Remnant" (M-Rated).

Oh, "Infinite Undiscovery" is T-Rated.

Did FOX news get to you or was the check written personally by Jack Thompson.

I guess they didn't receive the family values message from FOX news.

Actually, the sequel to Tales of Symphonia is out for the Wii. A friend of mine who absolutely loved the first said it sucked, though. Way to easy if you know what you're doing.

No JRPG fans on the 360? Must be why Square Enix is putting Final Fantasy 13 on it.

Tales of Symphonia Dawn of the New World is on Wii. Tales of Vespia is on the 360.

To quote Jumplion:If you want to play exclusiveX on consoleyoudon'thaveY. Stop whining and buy the system.

Do you mean like World Of Warcraft [http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=bqJE5TH5jhc&NR=1]?

No, but we can live in hope. I think every system should have at least 1 T rated game.

Speaking of T-games, why have no one made an A-team game?
I've often wondered this. The brawling & driven section would be great, also the construction, conning & disguising mini-games, but I think it may fall down in the shooting section. It may be quite hard to implement a shooting game where you can't actually shoot anybody.
It would require some kind of auto-aim system which made you miss, which I don't think many gamers would like. I suppose you could shoot the ground, scenery & cars to make you enemies dive for cover, giving you the chance to get in close & brawl them for a KO.

That reminds me of a brilliant scene form the A-Team where Hannibal strolls out a building and casually fires an assault rifle, one handed, from the hip at 3 bad dudes stood next to each other & shoots their hats off their heads!

How good a shot must he have been to not have blows their heads off?

That, or losing all faith in humanity. I'm leaning towards the latter.

Personally, I have found a lot of enjoyment in Kameo, and I think a 10 year old might find the game pretty fun
