He likes action-adventure games & his father has been letting him play some adult type games that are really inappropriate for an 8 year old. I'm looking for action-adventure games that are rated E or E10+ and there don't seem to be many available. So far I found Spider-Man: Friend or Foe. Platform can be PC, WII or X-Box.

 
Ahhhhhhh... to have -only- an 8-yo around. LOL!

Try any of these for action... Wall-E (Players use lasers to blast enemies and obstacles)... Zuma's Revenge (Conquer 60+ levels by firing stone spheres to make matches and destroy the deadly stream of balls, then take on six tiki boss battles and guide your agile amphibian to victory!)... Spore (Create your unique creature and guide it on an epic journey through a universe of your own creations.)(this is the first in a series... lotsa games he can move up to after he tires of this one)... almost any of the LEGO series (Batman, Harry Potter, Star Wars, etc.)... any of the BIONICLE series.

Many of the above games have PC versions you can download FREE TRIALs for... to see if it's a hit or a bomb.
