    Console games for older kids

    Anyone got any suggestions?
    My boys are 11 and 13 and quite old for their age but I don't want them having Call of Duty and games like that as much as they would like them and tell me all their friends have them etc

    If you have a Wii the super Mario 3d world thing is great for any age and you can have 2 people playing at the same time. I'm a PC gamer so not sure what other games are decent on console and suitable for younger kids sorry!

    They've got an xbox, we have a wii and we have got them a ps3 move for xmas!
    They were mad on fifa but don't like fifa 13 so have gone off that. I had wondered about the bond one or mario but that's for the wii which is the one they don't use that often as its more for everyone.
    Thing is the games are so expensive to get and then not be played!
    Thanks for the replies

    We got the Bond one at a really good price - £17 I think from Game. Like you say, they aren't cheap are they!

    We've just bought the Lego: Lord of the Rings game for a friend (and he's 26!!!). Cost £20 from Asda. Don't bother looking anywhere else for it - prices range from £34.99 - 39.99 elsewhere!!!!!
