New Limit on XBOX

I just read about a new innovation with xbox 360 and how they will install a timer for parents so that they can monitor the time their children spend playing video games.

The application will warn the children when their time is running out. It is easily overridden by parents if they want to give more time to their children or if they want to play the game themselves.

I believe this is such a good idea because so many children are becoming addicted to video games nowadays. They are even creating video games that are "educational" because they think that this is the only way they are going to get children to learn. We need to learn how to disconnect them and putting a limit on how much they are able to play is a great way to start.

The new application will be available in all xbox 360's starting December 4, 2007, and available automatically if your xbox is connected to a broadband network.
