Fallout is good if the child is aware the difference between real and fantasy. Fallout is not that violent. Also a good game is Metal Gear Solid 4 is a stealth game so the player can not act violent there are tranquilizer gun but the child need to know that won't usually happen in real life. If the child has good guidance those 2 game will be the least violent for M rated games. The others are more violent let your child choose as much as possible T for Teen game but if doesn't want it want M for Mature the good starter game is Fallout and Metal Gear Solid 4.
As the name depicts it is the third game of series Just Cause. Just Cause 3 is an action adventure game from publisher Square Enix.The game is available for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It is one of the best game which is similar to GTA or games like GTA. Grand Theft Auto V for PC also brings the debut of the Rockstar Editor, a powerful suite of creative tools to quickly and easily capture, edit and share game footage from within Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.

You can turn blood off in those, and both games are f.ing awesome.hr/blockquoteThat was actually going to be a T game, but because of a few things (brotherhood) it went to M. hr/blockquote exactly why I put non-M Rated M Rated game. To tell you the truth. Most M rated games are fine for a 15 year old.
When i turned 15 my parents allowed me to play the infamous Grand Theft Auto 4. Which is like the mac daddy of M rated games, my parents decided to let me play those games after so many years of asking was because they knew I was mature enough to understand that it was just a game and should not be taken seriously. Also think of it this way.
When your fifteen and in high school you've pretty much seen and/or heard it all. From foul language, blood and gore, sex/pornography, and even drug use. But really what it comes down to is do you believe your child is mature and smart enough to understand that video game violence should not be replicated? Again by that age my parents knew I was. Fallout 3 and bioshock really are fine.
Fallout is gorey and has foul language but the language shouldn't even be considered since he is (I'm assuming) in high school and hears it every day and the gore looks so fake i wouldn't even hold that against the game. Also bioshock has a slightly frightening atmosphere but it just contributes to the ambiance. To say it's scary would be a lie but every once and a while it will make you jump. But really I don't see a reason he shouldn't be allowed to have those two.
(I completly understand though if you don't want him playing grand theft auto I was simply using it as an example since I am now sixteen and am allowed to play pretty much any game I want (unless it's AO rated which those games are extremly rare and hard to come by)). Click to expand.This guy got it right.
It's not what games he plays or what movies he watches it's how he's raised. May i also add i have been playing M rated games for as long as i can remember. When i was younger blood and gore didn't bother my parents in the slightest and i heard foul language all the time between walking in public and movies etc. So that really didn't bother them either unless it was really bad like the original yakuza. What they didn't like was nudity or sexual themes but backed off slightly when i hit my teens. Click to expand.This guy got it right.

It's not the most graphic game out there but the learning curve is through the roof. He will have to earn every single bit of progress he makes and if he makes major mistakes there's no going back. I don't feel that MGS4 is a good starting point in more than one way. The story will go right over your son's head which is a large issue when 75% of the game is conversation.
I suggest downloading the original Metal Gear Solid off the PS3 Store. It's only 10 dollars. The game is much more difficult than MGS4, meaning your son will definitely have no alternate to the stealthy gameplay. You can blow through MGS4 guns blazing without much punishment. MGS1 is purely stealh for the most part aside from boss battles. Speaking of, the death scenes following the boss battles are very poetic.
You actually feel some remorse for delivering the final blow, something MGS4 definitely lacks, especially if it's your first MGS. I would also like to add that if your son is mature enough to play thro.
Although we're already too excited about the prospect of GTA 6 being a thing, that hasn't stopped GTA 5 from still being one of the best-selling games consistently for years. A lot of people are still buying and playing, and we really don't blame them. Rockstar's franchise has always been top notch, and because of that there are lots of games like GTA available to keep the police chase going and stave off the Rockstar itch until arrives later this year. Just Cause 3 (2015 - Xbox One / PS4) The Just Cause series is essentially what Grand Theft Auto would look like if it were on a sugar rush. Just Cause 3, especially, delights in unprecedented levels of chaos, by taking the insanity that derives from player freedom in open-world games and notching it up to 11. 12 in some instances. If you were amused by the ragdoll physics of Grand Theft Auto 5, just wait till you see what you can achieve in The Republic of Medici.
To be clear, Just Cause 3 holds none of the storytelling class or mechanical polish of Rockstar’s signature franchise, but it instead excels with its (literally) sky high approach to choreographing carnage on a massive scale. With the added bonuses of a wingsuit and a tethering grapple hook, it’s worth bearing through Just Cause 3’s off-putting load times for the sake of revelling in the pandemonium that can be wrought when playing as professional revolutionary Rico Rodriguez. Saints Row (2003 - Xbox 360 / PS3) Future Saints Row sequels went on to distance themselves more confidently from Grand Theft Auto by doubling down on their surrealist and satirical tone, but the first game very much remains dripped in the stylings of its biggest influence.
That’s not to say that Saints Row is a hackneyed clone of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, though, as this actually manages to improve upon Rockstar’s open-world formula in a couple of interesting ways. The in-game GPS, for example, was ahead of its time as a navigational tool, allowing players to easily locate missions or points of interest throughout Stillwater. SR was even one of the first of its kind to introduce online multiplayer to the genre.
To be honest, Saints Row hasn’t aged all that well since its original 2006 release, but it remains as a fun trip down memory lane to a time when the series wasn’t so ridiculous. Want to play Saints Row now? Watch Dogs 2 (2016 - Xbox One / PS4) The original Watch Dogs was such a po-faced and sour-hearted affair that Aiden Pearce’s tale of revenge becomes almost unbearable by the end of it, but Ubisoft took that criticism to heart for the sequel. As such, the studio’s follow-up eschews much more closely to the sentiments and tone of contemporary Grand Theft Auto titles, by using its setting as the stage for biting satire. Remember the “Life Invader” mission from Grand Theft Auto 5?
Watch Dogs 2 is essentially that, but blown up to the scale of an entire game. Rockstar’s parody of Silicon Valley still packs a little more punch than Ubisoft’s, but Watch Dogs 2 regardless holds plenty of laughs for anyone who’s had to sit through an Apple conference or a Facebook commercial. Yakuza 0 (2017 - PS4) Grand Theft Auto has always been celebrated for the way it brings cities to life, cramming its virtual worlds with dozens of side activities to enjoy outside of the main campaign. Yakuza 0 takes this design philosophy and goes to town on it. Where Grand Theft Auto 5 has tennis, yoga and stock brokering, Yakuza 0 offers up karaoke, pool, arcades, wrestling, bowling, dancing, gambling and uh, awkwardly viewing some explicit material in the back of a video store. As that last one can attest to, not all of the side activities are tastefully made, but the sheer volume and diversity of things to do in Tokyo is staggering. Yakuza 0 raises the bar for open-world games, and it’ll be interesting to see how Rockstar responds with the inevitable Grand Theft Auto 6.
Red Dead Redemption (2010 - PS3 / Xbox 360) You can probably guess why this one’s one here - it is made by the same studio, after all. Despite the early 20th century setting, Red Dead Redemption is the game which feels closest to Rockstar’s seminal franchise when compared to other titles in the studio’s portfolio. The open-world setting is larger and more expansive than something like Bully, and the freedom of the Wild West means that players aren’t limited in the same way they are with L.A. While the similarities aren’t exactly as simple as 'Grand Theft Auto with horses', Red Dead Redemption is further proof of Rockstar’s genius when it comes to open-world design. Sleeping Dogs (2014 - Xbox One / PS4) Very much sticking to its name by turning into a sleeper hit back in 2012, Sleeping Dogs brings the likes of martial arts and B-movie stunt action to the conventions of the open-world crime genre. The result feels like a Grand Theft Auto game dressed in the garb of a classic Bruce Lee film, and it’s fantastic. Sadly the sequel, which apparently included a co-op campaign, got canned while still in the early stages of development, making Sleeping Dogs a rare gem that deserves more appreciation for the new ideas it brought to the table.
The game even re-released on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2014, so there’s really no excuse to let Sleeping Dogs lie on the store shelf anymore (sorry). Mafia 3 (2016 - Xbox One / PS4) There is yet to exist a Grand Theft Auto game which doesn’t include a run-in with the Mafia in some measure, which naturally leaves 2K’s Mafia series as a good starting point for open-world enthusiasts with a taste for organized crime. These games’ come across as more grounded than their contemporaries, but you can easily see the echoes of titles like San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto 4 shining through their design. Mafia 3, the series’ most recent release from studio Hangar 13, hews more closely to the likes of Rockstar with a focus on side activities and a story centred around a war veteran trying to escape the demons of his past (Niko Bellic, anyone?). That said, the meaty, slow-burning narrative is as much inspired by the likes of The Godfather and Goodfellas as it is Grand Theft Auto, written so effectively that you’ll sometimes forget you’re playing a video game and not watching a Scorsese flick. Lego City Undercover (2017 - Nintendo Switch) There’s a good reason that almost every Grand Theft Auto game has been labelled as intended for mature audiences only, but what about those of us who want to enjoy cops and robbers without the sex, drugs or rock and roll?
Luckily, TT Games came up with the next best thing in 2013. 'Lego Grand Theft Auto' is a cliched but nevertheless effective pitch for Lego City Undercover, but this adorable open-world platformer hides much more up its plastic sleeve than mere imitation. The brick-based visuals are delightful, the litany of side-quests and collectables are deceptively well polished, and the pop culture reference-laden story is a hoot. For those who are able to pick up the recent re-release of the game, Lego City Undercover can now also be enjoyed as a co-op experience, or even a travel-handy one with the Nintendo Switch. Payday 2 (2015 - Xbox One / PS4) If you’re someone who particularly enjoyed Grand Theft Auto 4’s infamous ‘Three Leaf Clover’ mission or Grand Theft Auto 5’s heists, Payday 2 is going to be right up your alley. Overkill Software’s multiplayer co-op romp lets players loose on a series of high-stakes break-ins and robberies, but it’s not as simple as grabbing the money and legging it. Similar to the capers of Michael, Trevor and Franklin, Payday 2 encourages players to strategize their game plan down to every minute detail, even letting them scope out the place before committing the deed later on that same day.
The focus on online co-operative squad-play also brings to mind the multiplayer heists introduced to Grand Theft Auto Online in 2013, but Payday 2 luckily comes without those painstaking loading times. The Simpsons Hit & Run (2003 - PS2 / Xbox) A popular animated sit-com isn’t the first setting that comes to mind for a GTA-style video game, but Radical Entertainment achieved the unimaginable with this cult-classic hit from 2003. Homer and the gang aren’t able to commit atrocities on the same level as someone like Niko or Trevor, of course, but you can still cause all manner of mayhem across Springfield by kicking and punching to your heart’s content. The Simpsons: Hit & Run is as much a game for Simpsons fans as it is for Grand Theft Auto veterans, as the game smartly peppers references to its serialised namesake across the entirety of the campaign.
Truth be told, Simpsons Hit and Run is generally agreed to be one of, if not the of all time, right up there with Krusty’s Fun House and Simpsons Tapped Out. Agree with our list?
