Which games for a 5 year old? - Hardware & Software

So my cousin is 5 years old and his father just got a new cheap computer. The computer is running with an i3 550, 4 gigs of RAM and H55 asus motherboard with intel HD integrated graphics So those games should be rather old and shouzld support 1080p or at least 720p and must not include any obviese violence Please help

Get him an emulator and legally rip games from your cartridges.

I don't know of any games with "obviese" violence.

[QUOTE=ShadowSocks8;32076241]I don't know of any games with "obviese" violence.[/QUOTE] I think he meant obese violence. OP, I agree that violence against fat people is bad, but when it comes to violence in games, you can't really choose.

[QUOTE=PunchedInFac;32076234]Get him an emulator and legally rip games from your cartridges.[/QUOTE] already has some sort of that, but he has already played too much of that so no

Minecraft

Plants versus zombies? Peggle bejeweled mole control World of goo

Manhunt. :D [editline]2nd September 2011[/editline] or GTA

Video games should be kept away till the kid is around 10

Dwarf Fortress. Start from an early age, and eventually he will rule the world, making dorfly fortresses designed solely for research for Armok, God of Blood.

Freddy Fish, Putt Putt, Pajama Sam

Breed a racing driver, yo.

Amnesia, the dark descent. Don't come crying to me when you are cleaning shit off the wall infront of his computer.

EVER THINK OF THAT. YOU'RE DISGUSTING

Stop being a pussy about violence, and Counter-Strike 1.6

Because Pokemon Green only came out in Japan and it wouldn't make much sense learning English from a Japanese game :v: Anyways, on topic... Get him learning and brain games (the fun kind) because seriously, mindless (yet fun still) games won't really help him. Just entertain. IMO that's the only kind of games you should really let a 5 year old kid play... Would help them be smarter and better in school!

Freddie Fish, Spyro, and crash bandicoot.

Little Big Planet... oh sorry yeah. His father is an idiot so that´s out of the question

Doom, Make him a man!

If he likes music get him Audiosurf. Also if you want to promote thinking get him a WarCraft game (except WoW). Or StarCraft. Or Age of Empires. Or hell, any RTS really. Or even a turn-based like Civ. Also find him some classics like Asteroids.
