These games offer couples a one-way ticket to splitsville.

World of Warcraft

The most popular massively-multiplayer game in the world sucks in millions of fans, often leaving non-gaming spouses and significant others neglected. So, while you're rare material farming, going on a massive raiding party or kicking back at an Azeroth Inn with some guild mate, your significant other may look for a new person to form a real-life party with.

erick1450 if ur going to oggle at things that arent real and that you'll never get unless its someone waaaaaay fatter at a cosplay con, then your not really one to talk about a girls "immaturity."

PS: Nice, so half of those games had some hot-ass motha****in women in it. Kasumi from DOA and Rikku from FFX-2 FTW! Look, if you're stating that it will cause break-ups due to insecurity then I just gotta say, "Damn, I just chose myself the wrong girl." If the woman isn't mature enough to get over herself and realize that all it is is a pixellated hottie, meaning she will never make her boyfriend, unless she came to life which is highly unlikely, then she's not worth hanging with anyways. Immaturity is another stress on my chest I don't need.

Hi -- I agree with golradir2007. I am a 20 year old, delinquent who lives with my parents, goes to college and am the ace of almost everything here in Reno, NV. I have a perfect social life. Women beg to get with me, let alone asking me to teach them WoW so they can connect with me, and I still have time for everything even though I have 16 hours of WoW days and some only being 5 or 6. I am prefectly progressed in the game, the perfect Squishadin healer, so much it makes my noob ass server of Quel'Dorei jealous. My life is perfect, social life is awesome, schooling is flawless. 'Nuff sed.
