Games For Both Of Us?

Posted by simoniker on from the happy-families dept.

Truist writes "My wife and I have started playing games together (side by side at the computer) recently, and we're having a hard time finding games that we both like. Specifically, I tend to like FPS games (Quake) and she tends to like puzzle games (Myst), but we're both happy to meet in the middle. She doesn't seem to like Worms, but Return to Castle Wolfenstein was a huge success for both of us. What are your suggestions for good games that we can play together, and that we'll both enjoy?"

    You and your wife might enjoy a game of Rez on PS2.

    In fact, if you have the right peripheral, she might enjoy it more than you...

    Sam and Max, the Monkey Island series, Day of the Tentacle (Lucasarts adventures in general) have worked for my wife and I.

    My wife calls it "Evernipple Nights" because of the large bosomed ladies everywhere. She also made fun of me for playing it too much.

    We've had great success playing the Sims. I got sick of playing that one, because I got tired of making new friends. I mean, sheesh, I don't have 9 "real" friends, much less 9 sim friends.
