Age appropriate games for a 6 year old?

Mom2Max

My boyfriend has a son who I feel does not play age appropriate games. (I'm asking this because I honestly have no clue, hoping parents with similar aged children can help)
He watches wow wow wubbzy and plays the games online. He plays many online nick jr games I feel is below him.
I'm not trying to say "oh, He is sooo smart". I believe he is about average in that department. I just feel he wants to play the easier games so he can win, rather than challenging himself to learn new skills.

Is wow wow wubbzy for younger children, Diego, and others like that, or am I just expecting too much?

Answer
My 4 yo son loves Wubbzy, and plays games online like that, and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, My Friends Tigger and Pooh, Special Agent Oso, etc. My 1 yo daughter also loves these shows. These are preschooler shows. Noggin, which is the Nickelodeon channel that airs these shows, is a channel for preschoolers. Since 6 is kindergarten age, or even 1st grade, I would say they are beneath him, for sure. I'm not sure what is age appropriate, since my kids aren't there yet. Phineas & Ferb, which is on Disney and my son loves, I believe is for a little bit older, but no educational in any way. What about an age appropriate Leap Frog portable game system, like the didj?

Games That An 6 Year Old Girl Can Play By Herself?

Jellyfishe

I have a little sister who is 6 years old and she is constantly bugging me to play with her every moment that I have, I am her only sibling, but I have camps all day and then I have to clean when I get back and I want to have some time to my self. I have told her and my parents, but no luck. She gets hooked on anything cool, for now it's games, so does anyone have any fun and easy games that she can play by her self? I perfer it to be a one person game with only one player, so no board games where she can play both players.
No handheld games or online games please.

What is the minimum requirements in a graphics card for gaming?

Clyde

I currently own a Geforce GT 620 graphics card (bought around 6 months ago). The other day a friend of mine came over and installed a game called "Natural Selection 2", When it finished installing he started it up and the game ran miserably. Soon after he went online and found that his graphics card (6 years old by the way) was much better than mine. I was in utter shock at this point and I decided I would up the amount of money I would spend on a new graphics card. The only problem I have is : I thought I knew how to find a good graphics card, know I believe I am missing quite a bit of knowledge in this section. My friend also told me that it was because my graphics card did not load as fast as his. After looking up new graphics card I noticed that there are a few things I have not heard of such as (from the Geforce website):
relative graphics performance
CUDA Cores
SLI

I gave my graphics card a comparison to some graphics cards of equal value and I have noticed mine has a very low "relative graphics performance" and a low "CUDA Cores". My question is what is the minimum requirements in a graphics card for gaming (I only have enough money for a $245(+tax) card)


Examples:
My graphics cards relative graphics performance is 7x while the Geforce GTX 650 Ti has 27x, what exactly does that imply?

My graphics cards CUDA Cores is 96 while the Geforce GTX 650 is 768, what is a good number of CUDA Cores for gaming?

I await a quick and helpful reply, thank you ahead of time!

Answer
334 cuda cores are good for gaming. Basically any card that costs more than 150 dollars is usually good as cost= speed. Go to this site--Passmark Software video card benchmarks--the charts there will tell you which ones are best. Newegg.com is the best store. A 7850 or 7870 is very good, I have a new 7870 which is very fast.
