I know I am not the only one on this planet who struggles to get his wife/girlfriend interested in computer games…
I have tried many many waysog getting her interested in the gaming box under the TV but usually I end up on my own after 5 minutes..
Well filefront.com has come up with a 5 point instruction list on how to get a girl interested in gaming. What I didn’t find interesting was the mention of the graphing calculator that plays Tetris… now that’s cool 🙂
Anyway back to the point the rest of the issues are around what type of game to start her off on and how to do it.. Do not kill your ladies character every 5 seconds. she doesn’t think it’s funny…
For me the only thing that worked was Viva Pinata, now if I could just get her to give me a chance as well we might be getting somewhere? You can never win if a member of the opposite sex is involved…

I did the mistake of letting my wife get Tetris Evolution… now i relegated to playing Halo 2 on the PC. Sigh.

Luxor 2 and Guitar Hero 2 has me relegated to PC playing Halo. (not too bad a fate I guess), but she sleeps at 10pm, i sleep at 1am… so guess it’s fair.

Nope mine doesn’t like Viva Pinata as it just isn’t challenging enough.
