OK, that is *IT*!!! Stop with the ‘cram everything into the fall’ release mode already! All I want to do is savor some of the cool games … play some more little multiplayer Call of Duty 4 or Hellgate or Crysis or Painkiller or … oh, just enough already!!!
Family Timer – But Mom! I didn’t save!
Posted on December 4th, 2007 by
Microsoft releases it’s free “Family Timer” over Xbox Live and parent groups praise Microsoft for it – they should, it’s a decent idea with one major flaw obvious to anyone who loves video games. Think about it and the way video games play. Often games require players to either manually save their game or to find elusive save points. Time lost when that “Family Timer” goes off could range from 5 minutes of play to an hour. GamerDad has a better suggestion: WHY NOT BE INVOLVED AND ENFORCE TIME LIMITS PERSONALLY? (Exception: Parents stuck at work – but for them GamerDad doesn’t recommend access to video games when you’re not “in the vicinity”.) And Media Wise cites “parent/child conflict over video games” to be a “growing concern.” Sheesh! Click here for the full Microsoft press release:
