Xbox 360 Parental Timer
The folks over at Kotaku recently caught a whiff of the latest Xbox 360 rumor, and it’s all about concerned parents. The rumor apparently is that “the bi-annual Xbox 360 firmware update set to hit this fall will bring with it a number of interesting updates, chief among them a new Parental Timer.” This timer will allow users to set a password-protected timer on the use of their Xbox 360.
This is clearly a move on Microsoft’s part to please parents who feel like they’ve lost control of their child(ren) to the seemingly addictive Xbox. I think this is a great idea, and one of the most responsible things Microsoft has done with their Xbox consoles; not only does it give parents the freedom to set limits on their child’s gaming habits, but it also allows them to allocate that time with ease.

Count me in! My son is addicted to video games. He is allowed to play only on weekends during the school year and that is all he lives for. Help me take back his life and still allow him a little bit of fun to do the thing all of the kids are doing.
In my days we would go outside and play now all the kids are inside playing online games and if I send him out to play “no body is home” they are all on line.
