I <3 the violent video games, but I'd personally wait until my kid was around 8 or so at least. Below that, there are strong suggestions of susceptibility to subversive desensitization (say that sentence three times fast) and just a general impressionability among children. It's even suggested as high as 12-14 years of age with many.
