There is only a problem if the person playing them is too dumb to separate video games from reality.

Setup an environment on our local home network we can all connect to 3.

Would like to use console style controllers instead of keyboard and mouse Can anyone make a recommendation I looked at Counter Strike (Source) on Steam and I think you can only connect to internet based servers to play, I would rather the three of us just be able to play against each other at first before releasing them into the wild.

Older games that dont require the latest and greatest video cards are preferred.

There is also coop, which can be an intellectual experience, but that requires maturity and coordination because the game is not run and gun and you most likely are going to plan ahead of time your tactics to beat it.

Nothing wrong with that, im not a psycho, im not traumatized, i had very good grades university.

Stop overly protecting your kids, that sort of parenting can harm your children.

The only reason those ratings are here are because of republican conservativereligious people.

I never noticed ratings on books why not American psycho or the 120 days of sodom are a little bit more offensive then your average first person shooters, those were some disturbing childhood memories.;) 9 years ago.

Even though Counterstrike is not LAN, you could always find a server with zero players on it and play there.

You will likely be by yourself for the whole session and if not you can always just refresh and find another zero populated server.

Out of those options (from a violence prospective), I would say that Quake 3 or UT is your best bet since it is fairly unrealistic and fast paced gameplay.

As for ratings on books, when you are reading a book, you are not participating in the killing therefore it is not as bad.

On the other hand I do believe the ratings are flawed and most M games are fine for kids 15 and up.

But I have yet to encounter a FPS suitable for children 8-10.

BTW I Am not a republican or a conservative so your attempt to bring politics into this fails.

That said, Im afraid I dont know any FPS you could play with a controller as I havent been following FPSs much lately.

Crysis perhaps It has X360 controller support and LAN MP.

Nick3306 Lol back at you for thinking age and violence in games have anything in common.
