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.

I think people are overreacting - then again, I have my own system and didn't need a boyfriend to get me into games. Perhaps I'm a little biased and was able to just giggle at the article rather than take it serious.
Maybe if I rant and Rave about this enough it still wont make a damn diffrence but , BUT Chris Buffa Please. PLEASE. PLEASE. For the Love of Cathuluu Listen , buddy take a rusty kitchen knife stab out both your eyes. no wait thats to harsh. Listen Next month on Opera their gonna be doing a "Retarded Reporters Show. in wich she will lie them all down and sit on them. to end their miserable exsistances. get on that show. if thats not possible then I ask all the gamer girls and Guys. To grab up one of their favorite broken console controls., For many of us these will be the New Madcats, or the Pelicans. And chuck them like boomerangs at Buffas head . Maybe he'll do a good report and oh I dont know Feign Intellegence ?
I guess girls aren't allowed to like videogames. hmm.
Yeah...Try that with any Gaming Girl and she'll ****ing go GLaDOS on you, filling your home with neurotoxins. I know I would.. :| And I didn't need a damn boyfriend to get me into gaming. I hope most of the other Girl Gamers out there didn't either.
now i know why it says we are not reliable
Aside from boinking her to get her to stop playing video games. All the other suggestions were lame. #1 Sanitizing wipes, duh. #2 I got my own controller, stupid. #3 You delete my save file, you stop breathing. You want a girl to stop, drop what she's doing, and pay attention to your lonely ass... boink her! =)
Are you kidding me? They make us females sound like we can't play games just like the boys do. I think the real problem is that guys that introduce games to their girlfriend that don't play video games but learn how to and get really good at them.Then they end up whooping the boyfriend. it's basically testosterone. Then again i might be saying this because I'm a female gamer. Grew up with gaming and can't leave them alone.
"Let's face it, you tried to introduce your girlfriend to the world of video games, and it backfired. She doesn't want to share, you can't remember the controls to your favorite game and all other attempts to communicate your frustration have been about as successful as Bowser holding onto Princess Peach. Just chalk this up as a failed science project and reboot." Wow.... You have to be a complete and utter lifeless nerd to dump your girlfriend over video games, I'd dump my video games over my girlfriend if I had to." -Pfff, I'd tell that bit to leave. The game was there first and better understands me. Not to mention, when I get tired of my system, I can trade it in for a newer, better version ;). Seriously though, if your girl doesn't like you gaming then she really isn't worth it. She has to understand that, that is what you like to do and as long as you're still being a great guy and give her plenty of attention, then she shouldn't be buggin you. If I met a girl that played games as much as me and was as good as me, I'd just propose to her right there on the spot. lol.
HOW can u say hmmmm I just neededanything to talk abouit so i could get paid lol. most of these things are just lies to ya girl. now how are we surpose to react when we are told to lie about are video game oh please. this is such bad advice. id rather just buy another system and call it a day she play what she like and me what i like and it depends on what she like to we might like the same type of games. so we could in turn play the same games perhaps it could be 2 player lol. this iz so crazy even to think about lol.break up with her and lie, come oh please.
seriously...come on. Any girl who calls hersel*****amer will own her own consoles and won't need her boyfriend's. And if an argument should arise, we (as a gamer girl whose boyfriend got her into gaming) will just want to take the fight online in a nice "friendly" Halo or GTA 4 session.
