i want to get my little brother a few computer games... the only one he has is roller coaster tycoon. some of the games he likes for game cube are the simpsons hit and run, metroid, that shrek fighting game, and the sims. i don't want to get him anything too violent, he's only 11 and i haven't completely corrupted him yet so i'd like to keep it that way for at least another couple of years. he's very intelligent for his age, so something on a 14-15 year old's level would probably be okay. suggestions please?

i played all kinds of violent shit when i was that age (to be fair though, it was a bit more tame than new stuff).

mario sports games are always fun if he's into that shit and has a gamecube.

Start him with Wolf3D and then move him to doom1.

then once he beats those you can move him through quake1/2 and then halflife.

finally HL2 and doom3.

Might throw Unreal Tournament in there somewhere as well.

gotta teach him dem roots.

Sims

or try an Realtime Strategy.
You can probably pick up Age of Mythology Gold for pretty cheap. It's like Age of Empires.

And also try Postal 2. It's not too violent.

I think he's old enough to start learning the joys of the Civilization series. Can't go wrong with Civilization IV.

Sounds like Legend of Zelda: Windwaker would be perfect for him.
