A recent study found that three-fourths of parents rarely or never play videogames with their kids. But as all you parents begin your holiday shopping, you'll probably see some videogame titles on your kids' wish lists. What will you do if you find yourself at the store wondering what "Rated M for mature" means or what "E for everyone" means? Have you ever played an M-rated game? If not, you can shop prepared with unbiased information from www.whattheyplay.com. Search by game title, console or rating -- and figure out the lingo used in the gaming world. It's a fairly new Web site but is already quite detailed; expect this one to become a fantastic resource for parents of gamers. Also, gamers who can spare a minute away from "Halo 3" may want to check out what the next big thing in videogames will be. For gaming-industry news and more, check out www.joystiq.com.
