This is Scene It: Sports - Powered by ESPN, but there are lots of Scene It games. My kids love the Harry Potter version, but there are movie trivia, Disney trivia, TV show, and junior DVD editions, too.
A guitar-shaped controller and the Guitar Hero 2 PS2 game turn anyone into a rock-star-for-a-moment. Press one of five color-coded buttons on the guitar neck as they appear on the TV screen to play your favorite songs. I've got a friend who calls dibs on the guitar before her three sons get their licks every Friday night.
Here's another fun rhythm game that gets your heartbeat going. Challenge your kids to a DDR contest; you'll get a good workout and they'll get a good laugh.

With the EyeToy camera, you can put family members into the games, which include Table Tennis, Air Guitar and Drummin', Bubble Pop and Mr. Chef. There's lots of variety for short blasts of gaming fun for all family members.
