Gaming with the Girlfriend

Rock Band 2 on Xbox 360
Yes, girls play games too and very well I might add. This is not a Wii-effect, this is not a new trend. Girls are gamers and serious ones at that. Many can hand you your ass in Halo or Call of Duty, others, PMS, can whoop you in some team combat. While these ladies can compete with and be the best not all of the better gender dig shooter, some like jus to have a good time, crank up the guitar, sing a song, get Wii-crazy, and some of these girls, women, ladies, don’t mind dating a gamer. Seeing as how I’m a guy I’m not going to lecture you on what to play with the ladies (Need for Speed and Burnout are winners I can say), so I’ll leave it to this little article sent to me by … wait for it … real live ladies. Nerds Do It Better is a site dating and relationships.

The gaming list, 50 Video Games Your Girlfriend Will Like by Jessica Merritt offers insight guys cannot buy. Games are divided into groups, Group Gaming, Physical Gaming, Simulation, Puzzle & Mini, Familiar and Intelligent gaming. The inclusion of Halo, Grand Theft Auto, Burnout on this list is great to see as this is not just a casual gaming list for dummies. Jessica has some solid titles any hardcore gamer will and does love so gents this is not some fluff list, you will enjoy playing these games.

Word of caution … careful, be very careful how, if, when you break out the very exercise focused games, especially one with a Biggest Loser trainer on the cover.
