LOL. The choice is either listening to your wife (as i do) talk about 'issues' or what colour scatter cusions go well with the sofa or playing Assassins creed. Tough choice.

That sucks. My girlfriend loves watching me play games. She hates playing them but loves watching them. It's considered the same kind of quality time that watching TV together is. Maybe if you explain it to your wife like this:
WIFE: Don't you want to spend time with me?
YOU: Of course I do. We can spend time together while I play games.
WIFE: How do you figure, you lummox?
YOU: First off, that wasn't nice - I don't call you names. Secondly, if I'm playing games it's just like we're watching TV together but I'm doing all the work.
WIFE: You know what? You're right. I love you more than I ever have......and I'm sorry I called you a lummox. You can play games whenever you want for as long as you like. I'll bake you some brownies right now and you can eat the whole tray and drink milk straight from the carton while you're playing games.

Since we are on the topic:

Wife: Why wont you let me play any games with you?

Me: Honey, everytime I have asked you say no.

Wife: Well I want to play today.

Me: (fires up WarHawk) Alright, lets go.

Wife: Is this a shooting game?

Me: :roll:

Wife: Just dont shoot me!

Me: But thats how you play the game. Ok fine. See that tank, get in and shoot at me.

Wife: (after 5 min. of coaching gets into Tank and drives off bridge) Did I just die?

Me: Well it wasnt a boat.

Wife: I hate you! (storms away to go watch Lifetime in the beadroom)

See, I feel your pain my friend.

You need to sit down and find out what she wants (not only for Christmas), but what would make her feel important or you could be headed for some tough times.

You can even start with some small unexpected surprises like flowers or chocolates NOW. Also you may be able to find a game she enjoys even if you have to download some demos like the Rub-a-Dub game that she might enjoy as a starter game and slowly get her involved with more games you enjoy.

But whatever you do don't forget about her feelings if this means no gameing for a day or two.

I did this over a period of time with my GF of over 10 years and now she has gotten hooked on gameing in a big way, she surprised me with a PS3 and PSP a while back out of nowhere.

If this is true, you're a very very sad little man. A prime example of why young kids shouldn't get married. :)

i kind of have the same prob. i want just games for my bday this month but my wife wants to buy me clothes (boring) which means i would have to go to the store with her as she pretty much dresses me (embarassing). but as far as playing the ps3 it works out well, she loves to read and i love to game so she reads and i game. works out well that way.

Wife: Ya I stopped listening at what was it Heaven something...

Me: Don't worry I have them written down.

Just get her a week away at some spa or something by herself or with a friend and then your as good as gold. A whole week to yourself and she will have a good time too being pampered.

Dude....you gotta have balance with your wife, I don't think you want to see your console go flying out the window, because none of the firmware updates added flying functions to the ps3. Or did they..??

My girlfriend use to love watching me play Resident Evil 4 on the gamecube. Now, she doesnt even want me to play when shes around. So, I make the best of it when shes around if you know what I mean. So, keep her happy in "other" ways and you can have both.

I am so glad I married someone who likes games, otherwise I would be in the same predicament as the thread creator. My wife loves to play adventure games like Tombraider, Ratchet and Clank, Jak series, spyro, crash, anything adventure wise. She also likes to play co-op games, especially first person shooters (always kicks my @$$ in Halo back when I had a pleasefixme). Currently right now she is doing college classes and doesn't have time to play games but she does watch me sometimes. Last game she watched with me is the whole game of Heavenly Sword, she kept saying afterward that it was like watching a great movie.

My gf loves to watch me play.

her : "I want to watch you play Warhawk"
me : "Later, I want to advance my project" (I make games in C++ for fun)
her : *evil eyes* You know the eyes that make you go 'oh snap, I better do something'
me : "okay, I'll play Warhawk"

But she doesn't like when I spend on games. Hopefully, I don't buy that much games... usually... She'll kill me in November. >_>

Same here... my wife said I could get 4 games last month and I only grabbed one. I'm granted one game a week but november hopefully won't make her angry with how many games I'm getting that month. I'm buying her furniture the next few month because she wants some, hopefully that will blind her vision as I buy this large amount of games!

LOL at both stories, what i done was got a demo of rub a dub for my gf and she really enjoyed it so i brought her the full game which she enjoys and we play 2player together which is excellent, just start her off small. Also cos she likes cute things i knew that Locoroco would be an ideal choice to get so i got her that too which is excellent, on the third time through she got 107 locoroco so that was cool.

Some girls dont like to be taunted, since they are taken the time to spend time with YOU playing games which they dont really enjoy/get etc.. so gotta be patient. However i have taunted before and got that too so live and learn. Hope this helps to anyone who reads etc..!

get yo wife to play the ps3 and then she will be on games she liek and then if they combine with games you like then you can bet on each other skills like if i win you do this and that you know see then thats quality time and common interest you cant go wrong only if she beats you terrible ha ha
