Microsoft Xbox

Safer Gaming & Entertainment for the Entire Family

As leaders in the video game industry, it’s Microsoft’s goal to provide parents with tools and resources to manage their children’s gaming and entertainment experiences so that they can play in safer, healthier and more balanced ways.

Xbox was in fact the first video game and entertainment system on the market with built-in parental control and with games, movies, live TV, sports, music and more all available on the console, Xbox 360 is the perfect entertainment centre in the living room for everyone whilst letting you control your family's access. For example with the robust parental controls you’ll be able to manage which games can be played, how long each family member can use the console on a daily or weekly basis and whether or not someone can access Xbox LIVE.
 
This commitment to families is also taken to the next level through the Play Smart Play Safe Campaign - a new approach to helping parents and their children get on the same page about making smart media choices.

Using new methods and real parents and teens as messengers, the Campaign inspires families to take simple, but important steps that can help ensure that their kids’ media experiences are safer, healthy and more balanced. Providing tips and information from some of Europe’s leading experts and organisations, as well as our Family Experts to give parents the information and resources they need to manage media and entertainment in their homes.
