Re: girlfriend wants to start playing video games
you know we have to ask!
what systems do you have?
this would help alot!
Earlier systems's game are simpler but newer stuff might put her off.
ease her in to our hobby!

Secret of Mana, which is what my girlfriend and I are playing now. Also, Mario Kart 64 and Contra if she likes to shoot things.
Although, yeah, knowing what systems to recommend games for might help.

If you have a Wii, play some We Dare.

Mario Kart is always a safe bet

Any light gun games, period. Every time a a non-gamer of any gender comes over to my house and says, "Nick, I wanna play a video game," It's almost always straight to Virtua Cop. Or Resident Evil rail shooters on the Wii, but saying the wiimote makes a good light gun is like saying boots make good running shoes.
Otherwise, Bomberman and Mario Kart.

Re: girlfriend wants to start playing video games
Speaking of mario doesnt the 2d one on wii have multi? How is it. Lol i was thinking it would be funny to pop in one of my xbox 360 bullet hells and see how she reacts "oh here babe this games good for beginners"
