Try the lego games, there are lots of them - pirates of the carribean and Harry Potter for instance. Easy to pick up, some of them have couch coop so you can join him, and challenging enough even for an adult.Any recommendations for games for my 8 year old son (xbox 360). Most games seem to be cert 18 which really limits what he can get. I’m not really into it myself so I would not know if any of these cert 18 games are actually ok. So is there anything worth getting that is not cert 18 or any games that are worth a look? Minecraft is doing my nut in!!
Another good, quirky game is epic Mickley 2.
Of course, if you were evil enough you could get him dark souls!
