Since you all probably have some large collections, I was wondering if any of you have seen the Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance which has a "mini hint guide included". It's the first time I've seen it, just wondering if it's limited - did it come out first or after the regular versions?

After seeing the screens, I'm thinking maybe Capcom should've left the license alone. Hulk and Iron Man look horrible; if these are screens of the final game I will say right now that I won't be picking it up. I'm not into fighting games and it was the beautiful animation from the old games that had me playing them.

Maybe comic book characters just don't look good in 3d?

Shrek 2 is a great game (multiplayer too). Depending on his skill level. But I'd say pick up one of the Sega compiliations. Kids that young are better off playing sidescrollers vs. 3d games.

If he likes GTA, get him Simpsons hit and run. It's a gta clone; he probably can't finish any of the missions but he can roam around on foot collecting stuff or hop into a car and drive around.

I've let kids play dynasty warriors also as long as they understand that the action is fake violence.

Bounty Hunter was AWESOME. The only thing is, last I remember it was a pretty expensive ps2 game.billyd5301

the graphics in the battles and the opening cutscene. I didn't like the characters much; too cliche. I wasn't really interested in the story. With the exception of the opening scene The cutscenes didn't wow me either.

The cutscene because of how they directed it, with the quick cuts from the train to the city. The graphics during battles were well animated and it was exciting to see FF enemies as 3d models. It was like playing with action figures vs. watching a cartoon.

Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories

And watch the opening scene to it, now way you can find another GBA game that can do this!! EVER
