*FamilyFriendlyVideoGames.com Favorite* - This was one of our favorite family-friendly video games we saw at the E3 video game trade show in Los Angeles in June.
MySims is a kid-focused franchise, and until now has only been available for Nintendo Wii. But with MySims SkyHeroes, the franchise is now coming to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, too. The game will again put players in control of their own MySims character as familiar characters and enemies return in this flying game.
According to the developers at the E3 video game trade show in Los Angeles in June, MySims SkyHeroes is the type of game that’s being made for a gamer dad to start sharing some of the gameplay skills and styles he loves in an environment he can trust won’t be too violent or gory.
Most of the game takes place while flying in the air, and is a combination of dogfighting, racing, boss battles, and reaching checkpoints.
There are different locations like a city with tall buildings, a desert city, and arctic environment.
MySims SkyHeroes looks to be the type of game that older kids and tweens will enjoy. For parents who like to play more mature video games, MySims SkyHeroes should offer a chance for them to play games with their kids without having to play a kids’ game.
