Does your wife/girlfriend play videogames?

my wife hates my machines, but one day she says, "Can you play Ladybug?"
Never heard of it, but there it was on the Mame list.
Fired it up and she DOMINATED the game.
Go figure

My wife isn't interested in playing arcade games but she is rather good with the joystick. ;D

Wow, funny how a lot of women don't like gaming or only play puzzle or Sim games. Yuck.
I love playing games. Bought Doom3 when it came out, playing Neverwinter nights now, devoted PC gamer you could say. Castle Wolfenstein was cool. I love blowing stuff up. I'm into RPG's the heaviest though. Had fun playing Quake II on a network I set up with my other and we would play for hours. Problem is, I lost like %95 of the time, but I never gave up and once in a while I would whoop some arse and make my other madder than heck.
I'm almost finished with my Mame arcade cab, just need to throw together a new PC to put in it cuz my old one won't work with the darn arcade VGA card. I LOVE RETRO GAMING!!! Put the whole thing together myself (the controls and all)
And I'm a woman.
Cheers! ;D

My g/f is pretty big into games. Lemme list the games she's finished..
-Prince of Persia : The Sands of Time (Finished both Ps2 and Xbox versions 3 times each)
-Zelda: Ocarina of Time
-Zelda : Windwaker
-Got all the extras and all the characters in Soul Calibur (DC)
-Mario64 (All 120 stars)
-Tons more, i just cant think of em off the top of my head
Im blessed with having a very very attractive g/f and she games ;D. If you all want some arcade games to play together, play a coop game like Metal Slug 2, X-men, Simpsons, etc. Also pop in Puzzle Bobble or Super Puzzle Fighter 2. I dont know any girl gamers that play any hardcore fighting games like Marvel VS Capcom or DarkStalkers. I think the learning curve is too high...no offense to any girls out there.

Some of this I think I've mentioned in other threads, but I'll mention what I can remember here...
My wife never played much before we got married, altho she came into the marriage with 3 NES consoles each with ONLY Super Mario Bros. (lol)
Once she got the hang of the PS1, she played the Namco Classics, Activision Classics and a few other "arcadish" games....
Then, when I got the PS2, I tried buying games we both would play... (the Burnout series, Jak & Daxter, Ratchet & Clank)...
THEN.... I built the MAME... she really got into Galaxian, Galaga (and their many variations)... and then I got Gyruss up and running... and it's been tough getting the MAME back from her... she's got the top score ( currently at 355,200... I think) and isn't looking back....
She's also into Final Fantasy (having beaten FF7, FFX and has a save in FF6)...
Not to mention stuff I've downloaded like Hamsterball, Bejeweled, Dynomite and the downloadables from http://www.kewlbox.com
