    flOw... everyone likes flOw!

    And pixeljunk monsters is a fun coop game I can see anyone liking.

    I havn't checked out any pure puzzle based games. I have some games for the eyetoy that are pretty friendly for non-gamers. I would check up the playstation store for puzzle games.

    I think she might enjoy Uncharted: Drakes Fortune. That game made me feel like I was watching a movie. Great game.

    As for puzzle games, look in the playstation store under the puzzle game catagory. Some of the games even have demos that you can try before buying the game.

    The gunfighting in Uncharted can be a bit difficult at times, but overall my wife likes that game alot. She played Tomb Raider on the 360 and likes this one a little better even though it can be frustrating...

    I know my better 1/2 likes the older games, like mortal combat. You can grab that from the ps store for something like 5 or 6$.

    I'd like a few more titles she'd enjoy as well though, so this is a good thread.

    I got my girl into madden cause I kept playing her favorite team and then trash talking the qb everytime i hit em... she's so competitive she picked up the joystick to protect her man... i didnt hold back and destroyed her though, so we started playing on the same team.. that's fun. but catching is tough have her be the running back.. just playing to have fun together so... just keep giving her the ball even if ya get beat..
    imo.

    Give her a GameBoy, tell her to go sit in her chair and be quiet, than head for the PS3.

    After she makes you a sammich.



    That'll get results !

    The title of this thread is a little misleading. I thought it was gonna be along the lines of "Why PS3 is better than women"
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    If you found a way to have sex with your PS3 we don't want to know about it.
