| | | What video games would a woman like to play? Well, my wife like to play games like Zuma, Tetris, and other similar type of games.
By the way, she is better than me at Zuma
Anyway, I was wondering what other type of games should I introduce her to. What games do females like to play?

| | | The Sega Saturn was the very first home console I purchased for myself, and I had the port of Virtua Cop 2 with the orange light gun peripheral, and I kept it connected to the bedroom television. I came upstairs from a late breakfast, and there's my girlfriend (now wife) with one towel wrapped around her body and a towel wrapped around her hair, sitting on the edge of the bed, pointing and shooting feverishly trying to hit anything that moved in-game. The cord was was pulled as far as it would go and she was outstretched, flinging the gun left and right making contact with a smattering of enemy and friendly pixels.
She loved the arcade-style games, and I suspect if I brought more of that into the house, she might sit for a few minutes. She also seemed to enjoy watching Tomb Raider for the locales. With all my excessive gaming, I think SHE thinks I play enough for the both of us. |

| | | As far as the more serious type games the MMORPGs are types more and more women are getting into. WoW attracted more women to the genre than any previous game IMO. There are some that like the FPS games as well but not that many I think.
My daughter is into the Sims and from what I hear alot of other women are into it. My wife likes the puzzle type games and the card games. Backgammon as well.
btw... Whats Zuma? Never heard of it.

| If your wife like puzzle games, she will like and perhaps be addicted to the game Zuma.
Just google the name and you will find it. It is so popular and addictive that there is even a pocket pc and palm version of it.
