Subject: What game should I buy for my 10 year old nephew?

Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lube.

He's a gamer, who usually plays the classics (SNES, N64, GC). He also plays with his Wii and Xbox 360, but he typically dislikes FPS (violent) games. (he hates Call of Duty with a passion, but he's fine with Halo)

He asked me if I could buy a game for him, for Christmas.

So far, I'm thinking of buying him SMG2, since he enjoyed playing the original.

Thoughts?

A cornered fox is more dangerous than a jackal.

And from FOX, two phantoms were born.

Currently studying Computer Science & Software engineering. Hope to work on mobile devices of the future! When a certain game's credits roll, look out for my name! ;)

You will -blam!- bricks when you see what game it is! =)

Any of the Moderna warfare games.

The last thing I want is him getting spoiled, like most kids nowadays.

Portal is a good idea, but I'm not sure if he will enjoy it.

That sounds good. I'd go with Mario or Donkey Kong Country Returns.

The first Lego Star Wars game is by far the best.

I think the newest one is the Lego Harry Potter. But I'm not entirely sure on that.

Lego Lord Of The Rings came out a month ago if I'm not mistaken.

“I didn't want to wake up. I was having a much better time asleep. And that's really sad. It was almost like a reverse nightmare, like when you wake up from a nightmare you're so relieved. I woke up into a nightmare.”

Bio Shock 2.

Nah just kidding.

Get him the Kinect if you have like $200. Got it for my younger sister, she loved it.

Dear Floodians:

A Girl thread a day keeps the ladies at bay and gets us banned, the lonely single way.

Portal 2, there's no way he could NOT like that.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

I'd also say this not just for the game aspect, but also the intellectual challenge with the puzzles.

Another thought I had is Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb from the original Xbox. It's compatible with the 360, and it's quite fun!
