You are the parent, you know your child best.

Asking a bunch of gamers if you should let your son game might be a little bit of a baised opinion.

I personally would not allow my 11 year old to do so. Maybe in a year or two, but 11 is too young to be playing FPS's, unless they are very cartoon-ish. My biggest concern is with online play. DO NOT allow your son to play online, even without a mic. Some of the things said on there are absolutely atrocious. I would try for a more age appropriate game.

Absolutely. Itsnerve racking to jump from playing single player to playing against other people who you know are awesome at the game.

No one likes the idea of getting their butt kicked.

The title of this thread just about sums up my entire life.

I hate always being broke. I NEED Sims 3.

I have all of the rest, it's an awesome game to play when i'm in the mood for some very casual gaming.

Kingdom hearts is made of so much win.

Also, N3 was actually interesting. Not game of the year or anything, but it definetly provided me with a fewweeks of fun. Nothing cooler than killing entire armies.

Who hasn't? ;P

Pro-life, unless the mother was raped, or in instances of incest.

If you are human, you do both.

wow....

I can't wait to see how this is justified.

Metallica IS pretty win.
