Procyon Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 The main problem with him is that he is playing my games, which most of them are for 14+, 16+ or 18+. The litle bastard is playing GTA San Andreas and Hitman2, for example. I want to lock the game (or at least the folder where the game is located) with a password, but I don`t know how to do it. Anyone can tell me what to do?Also... what games do you recommend for a 9 years old mini-me? He doesn`t like strategy games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidu Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Search google for some programs that lock your folders. Games for a 9 year old? Try Dune1. Or "Beneath a steel sky" - that one is great. I know they're old... but they're fun.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyborg Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 I was playing Wolfenstein when six years old, and then Doom a few years after that.As you can see, it hasn't affected me much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Procyon Posted August 20, 2005 Author Share Posted August 20, 2005 I also plyed games of that type when I was younger, but some games have more realistic graphics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyborg Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 But many of them are less violent. Many of the old games were pure shooting games, where you shot people all the time. Now, there are often fewer enemies, and you have to apply some sort of tactic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidu Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 In the old games you could see that was a game even if you were swimming in blood. They were as realistic as "Happy tree friends". Know what I mean? Realism was down. Now each game is so realistic that you could go out and do the same sh*t just like in the game.I mean things like Half-Life, Counter-Strike, Battlefiels series, Call of Duty, etc... Well... anyway I just don't consider old games harmful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elerium Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 If you have Windows XP make a new account, make you the administrator, and make him an account. On his account stick some non-vilolent game and make a password for you the admin, then he can't get to your vilolent games and he will be forced to play the non-violent ones :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Leaf Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Search google for some programs that lock your folders. Games for a 9 year old? Try Dune1. Or "Beneath a steel sky" - that one is great. I know they're old... but they're fun..Don't you think that "Beneath a steel sky" is probably a little too scary or violent for a 9-year old? At least when nearing the end. Also, it requires quite a good understanding of English language. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidu Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Yeah, but the message is clear: this is a game. Things like these don't happend in real life.Counter-Strike is like: things like this MAY happend. And when he gets his hands on a gun he'll know exactly what to do with it.I have a friend that plays only fantasy games with swords and elves and stuff. I asked him why. He said: " I want to play a game, not repeat or copy reality. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elerium Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 For a game for the young ones I'd reccommend Star Control 2 :) That game looked fun when I was 5 and now look at me now, I'm still playing it :Dhttp://sc2.sourceforge.net/ is a remake of Star Control 2. It's good and addictive and full of humour. However newer generations will be hard to please with all these graphics ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
