You Can Make Playing Video Games a Positive and Educational Experience!
Are video games good or bad? That depends on whether your children play anything they want whenever they want or whether you encourage them to play the more creative and imaginative games. The point is, not all video games are the same. Some are overly violent or frightening, some have poor graphics and little entertainment value, and some have just the right mix of fun and educational content. But with so many choices, which ones should you buy?
Parent's Guide to Video Games gives you the answers! Inside, you'll find a complete ratings guide to the most popular video games as well as some hidden gems that may have escaped your notice. Each game is rated for the quality of its graphics, music and sound effects, play control, level of challenge, violence, and entertainment value.
In addition, you'll find valuable advice on:
Choosing the best game system without going broke
Managing the time your children spend with video games
Deciding when a game is worth renting, buying used, or buying new
Selecting quality games for people of all ages and interests
Also included are topical discussions on how to make playing video games a positive family experience, and the benefits of video games for mentally and physically challenged children. If you have children who play video games, you need this book.
