Cobalt April 20, 2006 Share Cobalt Member April 20, 2006 What games do you people play with your significant others? My job is getting more demanding and my girlfriend is away at school and we were looking at something to do together across the internet? Counter-Strike isn't completely ruled out as an option but I tried to teach her once and she didn't seem to like it all that much. I think the reasoning behind it was that she didn't think she was that good but who knows. Thanks for your input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emily April 20, 2006 Share emily Member April 20, 2006 Matt (my boyfriend) used to play CS with me on GC servers a lot, but now he's into Guild Wars. I tried it for a while with him, but don't like it that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobalt April 20, 2006 Author Share Cobalt Member April 20, 2006 AHHHHHHHHHHHH I THINK THATS THE LINK FOR MAPLE STORY! I don't even want to click on it. So many people I know have been sucked hopelessly into it...heheheeheh. Yeah, we actually do play Mario Party a lot when we are together but we are looking for something that we can play together over the internet. The quality of the game is drawn into question a little bit too because shes got a Dell Inspiron 5150. The memory and processor in it is enough to support most games but the GeForce Go FX 5200 32MB doesn't cut it for most games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried it for a while with him, but don't like it that much. How can you not like Guild Wars? Cap at level 20 (although I'm sure they'll change that soon), lack of RPG experience after you hit that gap (probably changed a little since expansion), no real desire to join a competitive guild and devote all my time to the game, the fact that it's incredibly hard to solo at a high level even if you have henchmen, the fact that specific builds/strategies are being abused in arena play, etc. I really don't like to strategize when picking skills, I just like to play for fun. I prefer meeting people out in the game-world, whereas in GW the only real place you meet people is in towns. True, there is no spawnkilling, but I am a very social person, as anyone who plays MW scopeless could tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tek-Almighty April 21, 2006 Share Tek-Almighty Member April 21, 2006 I'm thinking there is a cutoff out there somewhere...be it based on age, education, whatnot... My wife is 5 years my Junior (I'm in my 30's) and she doesn't get it at all. Not only that, but she has her reality show thing. I imagine my reaction to insipid TV is about the same as her reaction to me fragging folks at midnight, yelling, and throwing beer cans at the wall when Lex, HWarrior, and Bushwack kill me repeatedly. Games together?...right out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfsblood April 21, 2006 Share Wolfsblood Member April 21, 2006 My wife and I play Guild Wars together. Also played Neverwinter Nights and the expansions. One of our friends ran a mod where he DM'd it, and we had 5-6 people from the Us, Canada and the UK running around the dungeon together. That was a blast. Other than that, she likes the "pay to play" games (I hate them for the stated reason that I already BOUGHT the game, I'm not going to keep buying it...) and I like FPS's which she's not as fond of.
