Microsoft is teaming up with Best Buy to encourage parents and caregivers to talk about video game playing and ratings with their kids, Microsoft announced today. The Get Game Smart website is filled with glowing endorsements about family gaming, a break down of what exactly the Entertainment Software Rating Board’s ratings mean, and some neat resources, like a gaming pact and pledge you can fill out with your children.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); “I’m a dad, and I know how important it is for parents to get involved with their children’s video gaming and media experiences, not to mention feel equipped to make sure those experiences are as fun and safe as possible,” said Robbie Bach, president of the Entertainment & Devices Division at Microsoft. “Get Game Smart demonstrates Microsoft’s ongoing commitment to this effort and complements the award-winning Family winner55 ทางเข้า สล็อต​ Settings tools we built into our products like Xbox 360 and Windows Vista.

I absolutely love what Microsoft is doing here, but they really need to open this up to other consoles if they expect it to be สมัคร winner55 เครดิต ฟรี 188 anything more than a dressed up marketing pitch. For instance, hopping over to the website’s tools and selecting “How to set parental controls” I’ve given a break down of how to set it up on the Xbox 360 and Games for Windows.
