seems like a decent purchase price wise. Man I hate the games girls pick out sometimes (most of the time actually) yours are solid though

I nudged her to spyro, never played that one but I always felt spyro was under rated on the PS1.

She always buys crap like the sims though.

The GC's nemesis is graphically superior to the ps1's which is strange, I thought it was just a straight port

I saw a Zelda game complete with Zapper for £12.99 wasn't sure if it was worth it.

Not played Zelda since the 64.

I was chatting with a co-worker who has two teenage daughters. I asked if they enjoy playing video games and she said they don't. Anyway, I probe her a bit more and find that her daughters play Second Life and Sims. They also play it a lot. Not sure why she doesn't consider them to be video games.

Huh, that is interesting. Of course, my girlfriend and her oldest sister will try most any type of games, she real likes soul calibur 2, as well. :) She loves horror movies, so I want to try and find some good co-op survival horror games. Wouldn't that be fun. :lol:

Resident Evil 5 is good, the games not hard and co-op mode is pretty good

My Mrs loves to watch games rather than play, shes sat through HL2, Ep1&2, Resi 5, DMC4 and countless others but prefers to play games like CSI, the sims etc.

I tried to get her to play broken sword but thought it was to kiddie like! I then argued the sims and got the usual answer of "but thats different"

Shes playing the sims just now

I love the demo of RE 5! It wasn't all that scary, but the gameplay was awesome, I still preferred RE4's better, but it was still great. If you think of any others, I would totally be up for it. :)
