And stop flipping handing me the controller and then shouting instructions at meAngry

He's only 7, it's all new to him but my god it's driving me mental! He's never going to learn how if he doesn't do it himself and I have no interest in playing batman Lego Confused

Ah, we have banned console games for the next few hours as it is too stressful after dinner when we want to lie around in a flump Grin

Get him to watch a let's play on youtube, he can copy it then.

I used to love that with dd. it gave me double my playstation time Xmas Grin sadly now she doesn't need any help.

The Lego games are fantastic though!

Ah what you need is to borrow a 10yr old boy to come over and play with him.

DS2 has been getting very frustrated with skylanders trap team on the DS so I've encouraged him to just play with the figures and now we're watching the lego movie.

Ah, well, we bought Disney Infinity but it's only in German! (We live in Germany). It says you can change the language on the box but google is full of people complaining. We've emailed the company, luckily DH and I speak enough to roughly translate it and it's quite intuitive anyway.

lego Harry Potter is better

Isn't the server for x box down? My nephew says he is unable to use his new gift? (Or has my sister done something so he can't)

BertieBotts · 25/12/2014 21:45

Lego Batman isn't an online game so the server wouldn't matter.

It's probably true the server will be slow today as so many people trying to register stuff on it.

YANBU DS is the same. My particular favourite NOT is when he stands right in front of the screen and then tells me what I should do . . .which I would if I could only see the blooming thing!

Wine didn't help. I'm now on to cakes and chocolate.

Lizard squad have hacked into Playstation and xbox servers.

SanityClause · 25/12/2014 22:19

We haven't been able to install either of the games we bought for DS.

We were actually quite relieved when we heard it was a problem with the server, and not just his box.

Hopefully he will be able to play tomorrow.
