My Fiance and Video Games

First off I have to say that I have the greatest Fiance in the world and every day with her makes me feel like I have hit the jackpot.  She is everything you could ever ask for in a woman and life partner (drop deap gorgeous, funny, intelligent, motivated, honourable, kind......the list goes on and on).  On top of all that she lets me play my 360 and doesn't give me a hard time about it.  Unfortunately gaming isn't something that we enjoy together.  The large majority of my games are 1st and 3rd person shooter games (COD4, Halo 3, GOW, GRAW2, The Orange Box etc.).  My fiance doesn't play these with me because she can't stand the 1st person perspective.  I know when I played my first FPS it took me a while to get the hang of the view so I can understand where she is coming from.  Because of this I gave up on the idea of us ever playing together..........until yesterday!!!!!  My fiance recently discovered that the 360 has xbox live arcade and games like Sonic are available.  Last night we were sitting on the couch and my fiance looks at me and says "I think we should play some Sonic before I go to bed".  Oh thats right......Chalk up one more reason why my Fiance absolutely  ROCKS.  She was actually requesting to game without me provoking her at all.  Wooohoooo.  The door is now open and who knows what could be next.  Maybe a little co-op on GOW or Halo 3.   You never know LOL.

Good luck. I know that my wife will never do any gaming.

that is awesome. if you have an old PS2 lying around, I recommend some of the rps'esque games, like Baldur's Gate or similar 2-player games. It's how my wife and I started gaming together. She still doesn't like FPS's, but gaming isn't an issue around the house.

Awesome. My wife also loves the live arcade games...mostly catan and carcassonne. She also likes the co-op "button mashers" like marvel: ultimate alliance. Right now we're getting into the new crash bandicoot....
