Best Videogames For Enthralling Non-Gamers?

Posted by simoniker on Thursday January 22, 2004 @12:04AM from the one-toke-over-the-line dept.

Thanks to GameSpy for its article discussing the best videogame titles that appeal to those unfamiliar with gaming. The list of these 'gateway' titles, games which "...are usually quite easy to pick up and play and remain addictive", includes EyeToy: Play ("It's immensely entertaining to watch your co-workers move around ridiculously while trying to wash a virtual window or fight a virtual boxer"), Dance Dance Revolution ("sits in a strange purgatory between social awkwardness and coolness"), and The Sims ("...breaking boundaries that many thought impenetrable.")

The Sims appeals to "everyone"? Sorry pal, this cowboy isn't interested in playing with dolls. But you can enjoy yours all you like.
Maybe you should get your doll a new outfit today. Won't that be special?
