How to turn your Girl into a Gamer Chick

After watching the now classic "Wii Fit Underwear girl" many guys are making attempts to convert there semi-entertaining girlfriends into gamer girls. We here at AnalogHype went through a rigorous investigation process but was able to come up with a fool's proof way to turn your girl into a gamer girl.

Consider Her Personality

Think about your girlfriends personality because that plays a huge part in turning them to the dark side. Sadly, not EVERY girl is going to want to share your love for gaming but it wont hurt to try. Right?

Test the Waters

In life, different approaches work on different people and thats no different when it comes to the ladies.

[Odiah]

But they're naive in thinking I would have a girlfriend. Lol.

[Delt4]

Funniest comment of the day. (bubbles)

[wallace1000]

Very good comment!

[SCThor]

..so i think she's a lost cause :(

[MrWonderful]

I was shocked when i found out my girlfriend like warhawk and the battlefield bad company demo!

[Pornlord]

Well, my girl is a DS fanatic. I don't think that is saying much though, most girls like the DS.

[wallace1000]

Brain Age (DS), mario kart (DS), and tetris(360) are the only games my girlfriend plays. She has said she would like to get a Wii though.

[Athlon]

I'm not sure about the gateway games listed. The PS3 is my only console, and I'm not into rock star or guitar hero. So I'm not going to spend money on a game that I'll never play and may or may not hook her in. I find that Uncharted hooks in a lot of my friends who may not have been otherwise interested in gaming since it has that big summer blockbuster movie feel to it and leaves them wanting to know what's next.

[Panthers]

Yea Uncharted seems to work

[mindedone]

First, I started with Patapon, then Professor Layton on the Ds. I got her into Mario Kart, so I'm slowly priming her. Next I'm gonna try her with a platformer. Mind you, she's never even played a mario platformer before

[Exorgasm]

It would be really nice to not be yelled at or guilt tripped for gaming all the time and to have her understand and share my hobby would also be pretty cool.

It all seemed really awesome in theory until I got to thinking about having to share my consoles with her. I imagined getting home from work only to find she had beaten one of my games before I had or being stuck gaming on the pc because she was hogging the tv. No thanks.

[Athlon]

LoL I never thought of that. You could set up a different profile for her and have her keep mum on the game till you beat it. I guess the only thing that would take a hit would be your ego if she did beat the game before you. LoL

[perseus]

It's nice when people know the difference between "their" and "there". It's also nice when people know that "won't" needs an apostrophe.

I don't read sh!t that has obviously been written by a ninth grader looking for website hits.

LEARN TO SPELL M0THER FUGKER. INTELLIGENT PEOPLE WILL LIKE YOU MORE.

[blackboyunltd]

thank you for your opinion

[Kami]

if they were like me (i know 5 languages) most of the time is really difficult to spell and write everything in the correct way. even in my native language(Spanish) i always f*ck the spelling or something

[Picnico]

Do you really think that using phrases like 'mother ******' makes you sound particularly intelligent yourself?

[perseus]

@blackboyunitd: You're welcome.

@Kami: I speak 4, and I make lots of mistakes. But we're not talking about forum posts or quick emails to friends, we're talking about real writing. If someone wants to be a writer, they have to use the language perfectly or they will alienate a huge audience. That's my point.

@Picnico: I don't see how my use of the phrase implies anything either way. You think swearing makes people look stupid? That's just a silly bias. Swearing is a perfectly acceptable method of getting a point across.

[Smacktard]

Some pretty lame examples.

Most non-traditional-gamer girls like games like Mario Kart, Mario Party, Harvest Moon, The Sims, Wii Sports, etc.

Mine doesn't like Geometry Wars, or Brawl, or stuff like that.

[Peow]

My girlfriend likes MGS4! O_o... she likes the ***SPOILER ALERT*** love story between a certain two, and she loved the story all around ***END SPOILER***

She's playing it as we speak. Not very good at it, but getting better. She's in Act 2 right now.

[Pornlord]

My girl loves the story as well, she won't play it ( I think she thinks I'll see her do poorly at something and be ashamed, I don't know) but she does back seat play, like "Go crawl under that" or "See if you can take that guy down like this without those other three seeing you". She has fun with it, I've died a few times, but it's a bonding experience.

[blackboyunltd]

girls love cut scenes i guess

[G1TR4P3D]

I am a hardcore gamer. I have not the time for women and PMS. What kind of emo loser would want to talk with some girl for hours about her feelings when I could be PLAYING GEARS OF WAR!!!!!!!!1 Unless she wants to shut upa nd give me the head the whole time, I HAVE NO USE FOR U.

[Xlll]

Dude your a real angry virgin.

[juuken]

...Wow.
You sure hate women, don't you? You're probably an asshole anyway so I can't see a woman getting with you anyway.

And this is coming from a female gamer.

[G1TR4P3D]

no wonder u like dente so much. I know other girl gamers who LOVE him. I should have known. no strait man can be into DMC that much. (god of War destroys it)

now open wide! :D

[juuken]

You're an idiot.
I actually like Dante a LOT. I also like Nero because he pretty good on his own.

And you're disgusting.

[poeo]

at first my gf wasn't interested in videogames at all..

but in the three years with me she has gotten into (for example):

Wario Ware (she went crazy with my DS, to the point that she got really angry if i beat her high scores LOL)
Silent Hill 2 (didn't dare play it herself, but loved watching me play)
GTA: San Andreas (she LOVED it, and even bought it for her pc)
GTAIV (i dont have permission to play the main story if she's not watching)
Assassin's Creed (she liked the climbing element, collecting flags etc, i had to do the fighting heh)
Uncharted (she thought it was just ok, but enjoyed playing some of the puzzle parts of it)

i guess i'm freaking lucky huh? but it can be done! just tell your girlfriends WHY you love games, how videogames sometimes require several years to make, how they're not just for kids and can include interesting plots etc..

[nintendojunkie28]

I can turn my girl into whatever I want..she pleases in every way imaginable.Her name is internet porn she's a real cool chick or chicks.

[juuken]

I'm a shooter/rpg/action/adventure/p uzzle/fighter fanatic. I make guys angry at fighting arcades. x3

[Morgue]

My girlfriend will buy me games that's about the extent of it. If she goes too Best Buy or Target she'll call me and ask if there is anything I want.

[Freayr]

Started mine off with Halo 2, she loved it. Then moved her on to Super mario bro's, she loved the mini games, and mario kart. Also loves mario party 8.

World of warcraft came next, also Burnout, and she's also hooked on Tekkan 5.

Yeah she gets mad when i beat her high scores, so i just tell her she needs to pratice more, and she does.

So yeah, i think i suceeded haha.

[PJF_Josh]

My girl got way into rock band with me, hell i even got my 68 year old mom and step dad playing it with us. she loves singstar as well.

i got her started with parappa way back, then okami and katamari. you should know your girl well enough to have some idea of what she'd like. once you get her started on something she's having fun with, it's hard to get the controller away from her.

good times. =)

[AngryTypingGuy]

I have a better kind of chick. My wife is not gamer, but has no problem with me being a gamer. This means I can play and not get a bunch of flak, all while not having to share my 360.
