Long story short here:  I have an office that essentially caters to kids aged 8-16 or so.  I am not a console gamer and haven't had a console since the Atari.  I need some recommendations for games that are reasonably fun for the PS3 but aren't going to piss off parents for the obvious reasons.  Anybody got anything they like that would fit this bill?

The nice thing about the PS3 in an environment like this (really, all the systems from this gen), is you never need to buy a disc in such an environment. Just get all your stuff off the PSN.

Thanks.  Again, for an avid PC gamer it is really shocking that I don't know the first thing about the consoles out right now Ohhhhh, I see.

Hey I gave the advice. Going by dental fee scales in that USA place I reckon I'm owed about $1200 for my time there  why so serious?

If you're hooked up to PSN, download Noby Noby Boy.  Otherwise the Lego games are a safe bet.

depending on your age range (pediatric patients, etc), you might consider some of the really simple games (like that rubber duck one that you use the sixaxis for).

You eat stuff and stretch. That's about it.

And schild I'm a relative PS3 newbie myself, no idea how I'd go about "sharing" a PSN game ... it is only five bucks though.

Age range is usually 8-15 or so.  Most of them are probably playing Gears or War or whatever at home but I can't have that stuff in the office because of the 5% of parents that would complain.

My wife says this Noby Noby Boy cartoon should star me and Killjoy.

Why am I homeless?  Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.
