Games for a Younger Gamer?

[kidragakash]

So... I have a 4 year old who loves games, and considering he is 4, rather good at them

We have a 360 and got him recently a big compilation disc of Sega games. His favorite is Sonic, of course but it isnt challenging him much anymore... Pc-wise, he likes Peggle but the reading make it hard sometimes.

What I want to know, is, what other games out there, for PC or xbox, would be entertaining and age-suitable for him to play?

(And no, I'm not really interested in hear from people about how he's too young, or I'm being a bad parent... Go debate that can of worms somewhere else please...)

Well, when I was 4 I was playing DOOM with my dad, so I may not be the best of help.

But from what my little sister loves playing, there are a few xbox live arcade games that might entertain him.

Pac-Man and Feeding Frenzy would probably be best. There's also Uno, Boom Boom Rocket, and Luxor 2.

Braid? Might be a bit complicated, actually.


Umm... uh... err... I dunno really. I grew up on Mario and Dragon Warrior.

hm... never heard of them but will have a look...
It's just, I'm a geek, and dad is a geek, so it's only natural he would want to join in, but since what I and my husband normally play isn't what I'd consider his level, ability or maturity wise, thought I'd ask the wider community...
