| | | HALO? HALO 2? Really?
Anyways, I was going to say, "The Sims" and "The Sims 2"!!
Now that you guys mention it, though, those Yahoo! style games are pretty popular with female "gamers", too.

| | | In my experience, if a girl gets hooked on a game, they always seem to do better than me. Especially, if it is a pvp or competitive game.

| | | I was asking my wife about Zuma and sure enough she has it on her pc. Yeah, she's into the AOL, AIM, and Yahoo download games.
And I forgot all about the Tycoon series. My daughter likes the Tycoon Rollercoaster games. Her fav seems to be The Sims though.

| | | I guess I will introduce my wife to the Sims game. I have never played those games so I don't know which is good. Any recommendation on which series of the Sims is good?

| the original sims can be found for like $20, or a deluxe edition with a few of the expansion packs for under $40, i think. you may want to go with the sims 2 which is still $50 most places, but i'm sure you could find it on sale somewhere for around $30-$40. good luck with converting her to a gamer here is a link to ebgames pc sims games, they have a lot of variety

Juding by the listed games your wife plays, consoles might be a good idea. You could get games like Dr. Mario 64. The aforementioned online java games, like those provided by Yahoo and Pogo might also be good choices. |  | |
