Does anyone else game with their girlfriends?

[Outright Villainy]

I do, but it's tricky, because though she likes games, but any sort of pressure will completely destroy her. I tried getting her to play second sight and she dropped the controller when a dude surprised her, heh... I did get her to play Mario galaxy, which she loved, she finished Portal, And now it's World of goo, Mario kart, soul calibur, and a few others. Slowly but surely... No real chance of getting her to play team fortress though, she wasn't even able to W+M1 with the pyro.

The last game I played with my ex was Joust I believe!

Oh I do enjoy Joust.

 

[Wolfgurl]

Most do.

My boyfriend and I only ever game together when I join him on WoW. It's the only game he ever plays.

Better than nothing, I suppose.

you join him in his interactive chat room =p

Current gf enjoys games but mostly on her own, doesn't stop me from putting a snes controller in her hands for some DKC2 or Mario kart though. Although she 100%'d Braid in an evening because she couldn't sleep and enjoys being the passenger for games like Bioshock.

I've tried playing with my boyfriend or other male friends but it never works out. They spend their time trying to protect me or, just as bad, ordering me around. Nothing pisses me off more and it kills any fun for me and I really don't see how that could be fun for them. Guess I've got the damsel in distress thing going for me, but I'm anything but. We play as equals or we don't play together. So we don't play together. I'm fine playing with online male strangers though.

Yep, we play Halo together occasionally. Best time ever was on that giant sandy map, the name of which escapes me currently, we were playing with one of her friends (who was kind of bad) and her (also kind of bad) on a team, vs. me in CTF. Just one flag CTF, made everything a lot simpler. I was torturing them in a Banshee (they hid) and then finally got out, and stood on top of the roof of the building with the flag in it. (It's also where the hammer is.) Having the hammer, I waited for her to grab the flag, dropped through the hole, and killed her with the hammer. In real life, on the other hand, she screamed, and then hit me. Rather entertaining.


In short, yes, I do, occasionally.

The only games she'll play with me are L4D, L4D2 and RE5.

She really likes zombie movies.

Only if its not more complex than Nintendo systems

I always did wonder why the wii mote had a vibrate feature, was wrapped in silicon and looked slightly suggestive. Maybe that's the adult game that's secretly on the wii!

Fighting for the Tv remote. What, what did you think I meant?

The remote "fight" actually is not so good for the intern-electronics of the wii-mote. The silicon isnt that proofly wrapped around.

other "secure-motes" with equal functions are much safer and cheaper for that game. I know 3rd party equipment hasnt that good a reputation, but for such things its really a suggestion worth thinking about.

Mmmm. Protecting your remote from damage in a fight is an increasingly difficult task. especially with the increase in tv remote "fights" films on the tele.

We don't really play games together. I'm so awful at the games he enjoys, he'd probably break up with me if he saw me playing them. We are trying to get all the platinum trophies in Bayonetta at the moment. But mostly we just watch each other play.
