Kid-Safe Video Games. Parents Rejoice!
When it comes to video games, parents face a constant struggle with what to buy their kids. They can't insulate the tykes from the existence of video games completely, nor should they never allow youngsters to graduate from those interactive Leapfrog toys. On the other hand, there's a lot of bad stuff out there -- a lot of bloody, potty-mouthed, sometimes sexually suggestive (if not outright explicit) stuff. And, in one letter of the alphabet, ESRB ratings can't possibly encapsulate a game's not-so kid-friendly elements, particularly if the game is on the borderline.
Luckily, you've got Switched. We've gotten our hands on the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to upcoming video game releases. Here are three definite winners for the kids.

This is a fantastic help and the link to the family gamer blog in the comment above is another really excellent resource being written by a family actually playing games they rent from gamefly (thanks Sarah!). We need more resources like this for families who want to stay on the cutting edge with out having to weed through the drek.
