I’m just not sure Jeffrey Katzenberg expected that the original movie’s comic relief, the ship-hijacking penguins and that ring-tailed loon King Julien, would be the ones to really move it, move it.
But there they are, six years later, riding high with their own Nickelodeon TV show, a big-screen return coming up next summer with Madagascar 3, and, now, star billing in their third video game. The wordy The Penguins of Madagascar: Dr. Blowhole Returns Again! is the first to grace the Xbox 360 (it’s also on DS, Wii and PS3), and it’s about what you’d expect from a title like this one—light-hearted casual fun that does a decent job of stretching the Kinect sensor’s abilities."
While the Xbox hasn’t traditionally been targeted to younger children, its popularity has made it a centerpiece for most home theater systems. Because of that the little rug rats often want to play with the toy.
Here is our Top 5 Xbox 360 Games For small kids.
A good list and the games included are not something I'd consider expensive. Anyone else have better suggestions for Xbox 360 games for kids?
are they for you or your kids? trustme kids really love this games and try kinect party its fun for the whole family and best of all its free from xbox live subscribers.
For the kids but I don't mind enjoying them too. Thanks for the tip. I just might give it a go.
Black Ops II. Lol sorry, kidding, kidding...
Lego Harry Potter is actually pretty fun. Although the freaking collectibles are crazy... There are way too many, and being a perfectionist hurts with a game like that.
Yeah LEGO games in general are good choices. Having a blast also with Nintendo's latest LEGO exclusive.
It's just too bad that most good games for kids are for PS3 or Nintendo and not for Xbox 360.
Nintendo, but not so much ps3. Bout equal with xbox for kids games. Heck xbox and ps3 have like several hundred games for kids as it is. No way you'd ever play them all anyways.
Kinect does do well on kids games, hardcore...well no. So actually with Kinect Id say 360 holds the advantage for kids games over ps3. But meh w/e.
He is talking very young kids, 2-7. Xbox live arcade has a huge library of these game, from bubble games to fish eating other fish and yeah all the Kinect stuff where they can jump around and yell at the TV (Moms love to see kids doing this. Dads to by the way).
You looking for your next game to Platinum? Or are you still are searching for your first? I’m here to help you be the biggest Trophy Whore you can be. With 2011 being one of the best gaming years I remember, we also got some of the easiest games to platinum. Yes some of these games may be embarrassing to play online, but a real Trophy Whore does not care about these things. So get your Trophies sync up and get to the whoring.
Here is their 3 -
#3The Penguins of Madagascar: Dr. Blowhole Returns
#2Cabala’s Adventure Camp
#3 Dark Souls. JK #3 NCIS
My easiest Platinum was seriously Dark Souls, I had played it so much I kinda stumbled upon it.
@brodychet
You can't stumble on the plat for dark souls!!
It takes a minimum of 2 NG+s and a deliberate number of actions and sequenced collectables to achieve it.....in fact I would say that the plat for DS is unobtainable outside of the walkthrough book or a very good guide. I have the Plat, blood, sweat and tears to show for it. What a great game!!!!
Disagrees? It's what happened. Regardless of what you think, I'm on NG+++++ and yes i stumbled on it. Not being into platinums, it just happened out of my sheer curiosity for every aspect of the game. That is exactly what happened.
@dc1, a bit dramatic don't you think? It's a game bro.
No, they aren't easy platinums. They would be a pain to get platinum out of those games since I would not enjoy a second of gameplay. Easiest trophy comes from a game that you enjoy playing a lot.
I agree with this, my easiest platinum was Infamous 2..mainly because I couldn't stop playing because it was so much fun. I would probably get bored of playing games like NCIS and wouldn't even want to finish them.
Agreed CynicalVision and Ares84. Just got the inFAMOUS 2 platinum, which was just a fun one to get, and soon I am going to go back and get UC3. All I have left is crushing, but going to enjoy it anyway
Then you didn't play Tekken Tag lol. It could be done in under an hour with skill and under five without.
agree
easy platinum for me(from games you actually enjoy):
Assassins Creed 2
Uncharted series
Fallout 3
Sage words. Everyone always raves about how difficult the platinum for Mirror's Edge is, yet I obtained it in 6 days from beginning to end, just because I enjoyed the whole experience so dang much. It's true that, regardless of supposed difficulty, if you enjoy a game then the platinum can be easy.
I enjoy Battlefield 3 a lot but that platinum trophy is as hard as f*ck
would rather try these games out.
So tired of *Top 3-10 list of why...* articles.
Shlts not cute at all and brings nothing new to gaming news.
If u actually click on the article (Why the F would u do that), u find that everything in the lists licks ballz anyway. Every time, every case.
Inexperienced journalists, trolling for hits...
This is why kids games shouldn't be on the PS3. They should be on the Leapster instead.
Hey kids games can be good! they dont all have to be trash. Looks at little big planet, mario & toy story. All those are great for kids but older people could still enjoy them
Agreed with Sora. I've seen some of the most perverting adulterated creations on community levels in LittleBigPlanet.
Any list that doesnt have Tekken Hybrid (Tag Tourny 1) is doing it wrong... there are people who platinumed it in under 2 hours... (fastest time is like 54 minutes)
lol 54 minutes? What does it have you do, press square for every character through their campaign?
Do X thing Y times.
Score 200 at bowling.
Win like 10 fights in survival.
Beat the arcade on hardest.
Win time attack in under 6 minutes.
It is a LOT harder if you lack skills, but even without them it can easily be accomplished in a few hours. 50 people did it in under 3 hours to give you an idea lol
Kinectaku - You won't find anything particularly new or exciting from a gameplay perspective and use of Kinect is strictly serviceable, but Blowhole puts in a solid performance for what it sets out to do and may prove to be a suitable alternative for a penguin fix when watching the same DVDs over and over again starts to get stale.
I thought it said "Dr.Bunghole returns" rofl
