    Hi
    I'm the parent of a 7 year old who loves PS3 but he says that he's bored with all his games and that he got through all of the levels on his last game in just one day.
    I want to buy him a new game so I'm looking for suggestions please. He's not that much into shoot-em-up games, and please bear in mind that he's 7.
    Thanks

    Rayman Origins. Good platform game that can be played by kids, but to get 100% in it will take serious skill (and time!)

    It's time for him to become a man - dark souls!

    Rayman origins. Will fit the bill. It's alot of fun even for adults. It starts out easy, but later it really pushes you. Lots of collectables and High scores.

    On the other it was awile since I was 7... 7 year old kids making mince meat out of me on mw3, do aither they mature way faster thn we did back in the day or I am getting older faster then I want to admit...

    Thanks to all for the advice.
    I've bought Rayman Origins and I'll keep a note of the other suggestions for birthdays etc.
    Thanks again

    My 7 year old is now 8 and as part of the birthday treat he got Ratchet and Clank 4. Another huge hit! Thanks very much for the advice - I would have been clueless.
    Any further tips will be most welcome!

    ^^^^^ This, plus the Jak & Daxter collection is good too. And rumours are that the original 3 Ratchet & Clank games from the PS2 will be bundled into a PS3 collection sometime the next month or so, so could be a buy if he enjoyed R&C4.
