Suggest me a game.

[mace¬]

Right, I need some help here.

the Mrs has never played a console in her life and i mean is useless with anything more than iron.

Can anyone recomend me some cheap games that we could multiplayer on the 360? nothing to serious, more like party/basic games with a bit of competition?

See if she can actually do it.

 

[Knuckles]

Gears of war

that zombie game which I forget the name of

forza

pics of missus?

 

[mace¬]

flol, I don't think you understand the female technology r****d thing. She isn't going to be Gears of War or Forza savvy.

I was thinking more Super Monkey Ball standards.

and you want Pics?

 

[Spinksy]

PAC-MAN?

 

[Knuckles]

Ah, the first time I played gears of war I ran around lancing every fucker. Lance>talent

pics, would be appreciated... It's just the default reply to these threads.

Im stuck to two player games though. Just go to granger games/Cex etc and have a look?

Any Lego game. I recommend LOTR, best in the franchise IMO.

LA Noire - Weird shout but my missus loved this. Had a good stroy line and you can both get involved even if only one of you plays. Interrorgations etc. finding evidence. Also great game.

Other than that the Lego games are really REALLY good. Any of them.

 

[mace¬]

lol at PAC-MAN.

I think I'm best just going and buying a bunch of crap second hand games and finding one she can play. I'm thinking some sort of destruction derby cartoon style game that just has an accelerator button and weapon button. Something simple.

 

[banther]

Maybe download Skydrift from Xbox Arcade? Good fun and all you do is steer, brake and shoot.

 

[Toby]

Geometry Wars.

My ex loved it.

Geometry Wars.

My ex loved it.

I saw left thumbstick and right thumbstick. No chance. (although I might be putting her down here, but I just can't see it) It would be about as successful as Stephen Hawkings in the hurdles.

Might try the LOTR lego as she like LOTR. I'm going for a long lunch to see what I can get.

Retro gaming at its best iirc

Double dragon? s**t like that is simple yet a really good starting place for gaming IMO

 

[Clart]

Guitar hero.

 

[danward]

Mr mrs likes Trials HD. Really basic controls and premise to the game but very addictive.

 

[Wilkeh]

Not 360 but if you can get your hands on a Gamecube I would recommend all the old Mario Party games.

Chicks dig Mario Party.

No joke btw, awesome fun.

I've just tokk a 90 minute lunch break and been to CEX. How s**t is that. All fighting and driving games. I wanted something simple and fun and cheap. I was not paying £20 for LOTR Lego just in case she plas for 30 seconds and doesn't like it.

I think going Retro is the best bet. Although at the moment it looks like Tiger Woods mini games and Beijing Olympics. Might try her on a bit of Project Gotham as well.

I was just going to say this!

LOTR I didn't get on with to be honest - Star Wars complete saga if she's into star wars for me!

Stuff like double dragon, shinobi, sonic etc are all on the marketplace cheap enough

Ah man that sucks, next chance you get ask about the arcade compilation disks at CEX etc they have the odd classic game on and will be really cheap nowadays

Discs like this would be great as it has classics like streets of rage and Sonic on

To me the retro simple games like those would be a great place to start gaming, button mashers should get her hooked enough to start her wanting to play more often

 

[Adamm.]

Pics first..

 

[McGherkin]

COD. She'll be 360 noscoping in no time.

All the suggestions that have come into my head so far are all Nintendo games so you'd need a wii. Early NFS games?

 

[JParker]

Pikmin! she will bloody love that, its dead easy/simple controls + its cute.

 

[Tunst]

Viva Pinata..

 

[mace¬]

I did see Viva Pinata actually, but it looked a bit Japanese.

Mace will be sneaking up in the middle of the night to finish where they left off from then.

 

[Knuckles]

Left 4 dead. Choot dem!

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

Guitar Hero (girls love it and if you've never played it you will be bad too)
Geometry Wars (you might be surprised)
Fable (girls like the RPG element)
Bomberman (if she can't play that then maybe stick to ironing)

 

[Billy.]

Can't believe no one has suggested tekken, it's button bashing - my gf loves it! Granted it gets boring after a few fights - and my gf isn't impressed when I release mad combos...

Haha, but you can't go wrong with tekken, just a "spam buttons" game for any rookie

Edit: and you can "pretend" to lose a few times - puts you in her good books & guaranteed bj's

 

[Wilkeh]

Bomberman (if she can't play that then maybe stick to ironing)

Forgot about Bomberman! Seriously will not go wrong with that game. Too many LOL's!

 

[STICKER TWONK]

Can you get, "Hide the Sausage" on Xbox? Great game.

 

[B00mer]

As has been suggested, one of the arcade discs with UNO on it

 

[mace¬]

I wish I could get Bomberman I might see if I can pinch a massively long Cable from work and run the cable out the window and back in the living room into the Xbox tonight.

 

[l33th3tr33]

Trials HD, tell her she's trying to beat the time of a mate of yours that she hates, she'll be a pro in minutes.

 

[mace¬]

I think I've played trial HD. Is that the Trials bike game a bit like the old back forward don't fall off thing?

 

[danward]

Yea it's brilliant, my mrs mastered it in a few minutes.
