The Xbox 360's parental controls could be getting a boost next month with a "parental timer" feature that would let parents limit the amount of time children can play. The information comes from a TeamXbox forum poster who says he found the feature listed on a pamphlet included with a Guitar Hero III keychain, of all things. Not exactly iron-clad sourcing, but given that Microsoft's Vista operating system already has a similar feature, it doesn't seem too far-fetched. Still, consider it a rumor until we can confirm this for ourselves.

Wouldn't it be easier for parents to say, "Turn off that goddamn Xbox or I'll give you a hiding"?

That's awesome.
I used to have a friend on FFXI whose parents had actually set the router on their network to shut off at a certian time. So there wasn't any, "Just five more minutes." When it was time, it was time.

The alternate solution is to put a freaky chicken into the game which apparently will make the kid drop everything and act like a freaky chicken.

That would be major lulz.

Then they'd have to interact with their child and raise him/her themselves.

Thats absurd.

This is where we could all take a valuable lesson from our pal, Senji.

When he tells his kid to get off the God damn Xbox, his kid gets off the God damn Xbox.
