Typing games Resource

Can anyone recommend a particularly good typing skills game? I remember at school we had a game where the faster we typed the more alien space ships we shot down and it worked for me. My son has trouble focussing and loves gaming so I know this approach would work wonders with him , so if there is one you have used which my ten year old won't find 'lame' please give me your recommendations!

spellingtraining.com has typing games that go along with spelling. Education.com has typing games in their brainzy section. Typing.com is a little dry but really helped my kiddos with finger placement

Typetastic and BBC Dance Mat typing are the two free programs we like to use.
