My wife, a gamer? - Blu-ray Forum

Cyorg · 10-31-2008, 11:47 PM

Well not really... But with my recent purchases of Rockband, and Little Big Planet, she wants to play my PS3 as much as I do... She thinks Sackboy is the cutest thing in the world.

Cool!Yeah whenever the next Ratchet and Clank comes out I can forget about using my ps3 for a while

brett_day · 10-31-2008, 11:53 PM

im lucky! i get to keep the ps3 to myself! my wife has no interest in games at all!

I love my games but my wife is more of a gamer than I am. It got to the point were we invested in a second set up for her.

We have 3 XBOX 360s, 1 PS3, 1 Wii, 2 XBOX's, 2 PS2's and 1 Gamecube.

No.. I have mine in the living room, the wife has hers in the bedroom and 1 in the spare bedroom. I will be getting the second PS3 this Christmas in order to watch my blu in the bedroom.

agreed.
my wife is a fiery gamer and let me just say that eden garden 7 + Full Moon + PMS*(my wife) = Full Scale Apocolypse rained down on the world.

let's hope those 3 events never line up or we will not live to see our next president.

My wife is having alot of fun with little big planet, which is a good thing because she has never had any interest in games, besides playing jewel quest on her cell phone...I even downloaded it for her on the 360 and she still prefers the 2 inch screen to the 42 inch screen, go figure

He is the cutest little thing !!!
I can't wait to have a real sack to play with !!!

CYMBOL · 11-01-2008, 01:45 PM

My wife has only had a passing interest in Rubber Ducky and PAIN. I tried to get her to try Warhawk - but she kept running around either looking at the sky or straight down at the ground.

*sigh*

Not sure what I expected - she can barely play the "remote control".

HOME THEATRE ADDICT! · 11-01-2008, 02:06 PM

My girlfriend bought Rainbow6 Vegas when she got her PS3 16 months ago. Shes yet to try it. I have it too and completed it, so from time to time I try to complete a mission for her, shes not going to do it. Better stick with the kids games! Waste of money for her.

TGReaper · 11-01-2008, 02:19 PM

Its good to be a collector of consoles and stuff.. you never know when you might get an itch for some old retro gaming...

As far as consoles and stuff go, my list is kinda like this....

5 Xbox 360's, 3 PS3, 2 Xbox, 3 PS2, 1 Wii, 3 Dreamcasts, 4 Sega Saturns, 2 PSP, 1 DS, 2 Megadrives with MegaCD's, 3 SNES, 2 GBA, 3 Commodore 64, 3 Amigas, 4 Atari-St, 5 Sinclair Spectums, 3 Gamecubes, 2 NES.

Looking to add to collection if future

Cybernate · 11-01-2008, 03:54 PM

My wife prefers Tomb Raider games (which I have no patience for but will help her when she gets stuck), Prince of Persia games (I came home one day - she was playing some impossible sequence and whipped right through it. I said, "Holy crap! How long have you been playing this level?" She said, "What do you mean, this my first time through. You want to try?" "....um, no."), and Ratchet and Clank. We played through Resistance together, we play Super Puzzle fighter against each other, and we play Ultimate Alliance with the kids.

My wife asked me to put up our projector and screen in the living room because she had trouble watching TV and playing games on the 32" TV.

That's right. I have the greatest wife in the world.
