And you thought playing Halo 3 together would bring you closer...
Convincing our girlfriends to play video games sounded like a great idea. Turns out, it was more of a curse than a blessing. She hogs the Xbox, "accidentally" spoils endings of games and calls us idiots for using an attack spell instead of a health potion.
If your girl has kicked you off the couch, these 10 tips will help you reclaim your sacred game controller.

@xxpyrobychoicexx Though I too am annoyed by "girl-gamers" who take on that title simply to impress guys, I don't necesarily think the applying the term to oneself negates all gaming skill. :-/ It kind of depends on the context. If its splashed all over someone's MySpace, where gaming isn't a pretext, then yeah...probably doing it for attention or whatever. However, in a situation such as this, where female gamers are the subject at hand, why not use a simple term? Ne?
hi. larkaherzlos, being a girl has nothing to do with gaming. either you're a gamer or you're a "girl gamer" which is code for "I just take myspace photos of me with game controllers and advertise my so-called "girl gamer status" so guys will check out my page and comment me and stuff. I have no actual interest or skill in video games whatsoever" Whoever proclaims herself to be a girl gamer is an arrogant sexist. i'm a guy so i happen to notice that the girls who just claim to be gamers (no sexist prefix involved) kicked my ass. girls who proclaim to be girl gamers, i owned with NO SKILL NEEDED. i was eating chips, drinking Bawls, and talking to my girlfriend at the same time and i got a headshot every...single...time. so never use the word girl gamer to describe yourself again unless you mean to intentionally lose your self respect. because girl gamer isn't a gamer. it's a n00b who PRETENDS to be a gamer.
her **** are ****ing huge
you can see her **** and yes i'm a guy also does some want to go out with me
HA! A dude? Getting ME into gaming? That's hilarious. I have my OWN consoles, insolent, unworthy male!! Now make me a sammich! Annnnnd I keep my controllers in my pants...JUST BECAUSE I WANT TO! BWAHAHAHA!!!!
I'm laughing pretty hard over some of these comments more than just the article. To whoever said they'd ditch their games before their girlfriend, good on you, you probably get laid. To whoever countered with 'tch, that *****'d be gone, the games were here first', congratulations, I'm sure your mommy loves you at least. Now, I'm a girl, and I started with Ultima on my dad's old Commodore 64 when I was about nine, but I'd already been playing Nintendo classic. I've brought /boyfriends/ into gaming. It's never been an issue for me. I'm not going to point out all the backwards commentary in the article because I don't think any of it was done on purpose, but I will say that i*****irl or a boy has an issue with their SO playing too many games, your best course of action is probably just to talk to them about it - but if they're any real kind of gamer with an external life in addition to their gamer life, it probably won't be a problem. Everyone needs a break eventually.
This article is complete and utter bull****. You touch ANY gamer's save file, male or female, they are going to rip you a new one. I'm betting this guy was a spoiled brat as a child that never learned to share his toys or wait his turn. Chris Buffa, heres a one-finger salute just for you, buddy...
