I don't think there are many people who are going to say that letting a child under the age of twelve have free reign of video games is a good idea.
Perhaps a short while on something educational is okay. Kids will need to learn how to use multimedia systems eventually, and I know that I certaintly learned a bit from games. But, kids who get to play ten hours of even G rated games like Mario Kart are lacking some sort of essential developmental practices, I'm sure.
