Just to get some experience and opinion from u guys regarding woman around us. Straight question, does they support ur games hobbies? in my shoes my mother doesn't like it, my sister told me that i'm like a kids when playing games and my girlfriend said its a waste of time and money (she doesnt like my attention got separate between her and my playstation,huhu.. ) but no matter how big the obstacle is, i'm still playing my playstation. its my money and my time, so who cares ,hehe..so did u guys feel the same?

*sorry for girl out there who play games, u guys are out of question in this thread

You've already ahve the answer, what you want?

my gf think its fine and some say im weird im 29 they expect me to do something else

well i like playing games:P

my family never stop me from playing my Wii.. lol

this thread i gues wil be more propriate if goes under kopitiam?

Lady friend always want attention when are close to u.

So if you play games when they are around, it kinna makes them LOA.

Depends on the type of lady though, some will always obey the second half, that they dun mind even to play games along.

My experience, video games for guys will change ladies thinking. Recommend not let them play.

Its my opinion though. I am not saying ladies cannot play video games, but are nt recommended.

nowadays more girls are playing them than guys...especially with nds and psp in the market...even wii got big following with gals...

Not anymore, I changed my parent's perception of videogames with my PS3. They are no longer the childish contraption that they once thought. They even joined me in playing once in a while.

It's not going to stop at just my parents, I always try to show anyone who seems to have a negative opinion on videogames by sharing tidbits of info that changes their perception.

For example, the revenue generated from videogames now rivals the profit generated by box office movies.

If we gamers can convince at least one person out there this way, then we can change how videogames are viewed in our country.

my ex used to be split about it..
when i wasnt with her,i can play all i want..
when im with her,either i teach her how to play it,or dont play at all(usually i just play..could care less what she thought)
my mother used to be OK with it..then she disliked it...now she's ok with it again

a couple of years ago,before i got the PSP,and stopped playing the PS2,one of my aunts was "happy for me,that i grew out of it"
and when i got the PSP, she shook her head(obviously out of disapproval)

another time (sometime during last year's CNY) i wanted to show the pictures taken from my camera,so used the PSP..
one of my aunts (who absolutely LOVES bragging about anything she has) was shocked by the PSP...so asked what was it..
when my mother told her,she shook her head in disapproval.
but still looked at the pics through the PSP (funny thing is,she sees no problems spending thousands on feng shui crap..but technological marvels is a big ass sin )

anti game/console people are just narrowminded dimwits,if you ask me..

consoles today not only play games,but you can do so many other things with it.
if you show the games,they show disgust,but if you show some other things they

narrowminded fools

that's why I choose to be single

sometimes the loneliness gets to me, but when I think about playing MGS4 without a worry that anyone's gonna sound me for being in front of the TV for too long.. I get motivated again

problem with girls, they think that video games are for kids.. probably because they haven't kept up with technology.

that said, I know a few gamer chicks, one is even more hardcore than me

Looking at my tale, my dad is the one that says no to games, high blood pressure and all. But i gave him sudoku on the DS and he's ok with it. My mum tried to play Brain Age, but had a few problems and she ditched it. My sis is an ok gamer, loving sims.

My gf on the other hand is way cooler. She wants me to have a game house (Much like a doll house) outside of our house when we get married. Owh I can hear the bells chime now. hahahha.

my sister play army of two and cod4 with me.....

seriously

my wife like it when i buy my ps3 , she says that i look happier nowadays with it. i dont know what that means . but i feel happier now with a ps3 in my living room.


hope my wife dont find this posting .......

my parents are ok with it as long as i'm not too obsess to it (well actually i' am). same goes to my gf.

but the most important think here is, gamers should know how 2 manage their time like doing chores or work equally with gaming. then everything will be fine. i'm too a heavy gamer but i hate those who are to obsess playing it until they abandon anything else in their life.

It doesn't matter with my console and women/girls around.
As long as ...
I did what she(mother) asked and requested,
I spent my time whenever she(girlfriend) needed,
I kick her(sister) whenever she's trying to disturb me.

It means ur better off with a PS3 and a wife like her. You're lucky to have her man...

Thats nice. You GF. My gf doesnt have the same dream with yours. But mine doesnt stop me from playing. In fact. She evens asks me to play on weekends. And she likes playing on my PSP. Locoroco. lolz.

not necessarily just that..
women also need to give us space.no,really..
so many times i've seen
bf/husband/etc play game cannot
gf/wife/etc shopping is a must

wtf?

anyway,personally i'd rather not have someone who is interested in games..
i find it....fake.

i'd rather keep gaming/football/etc separate,and not mix them both.
i hate it when there's a need to explain every little detail especially when theres something important going on

the one game they almost surely will love

my gf is a huge sims addict. she can spend hours sitting in front of my pc just furnishing and decorating her virtual homes. when she saw me play GTAIV the other day she winced and was utterly horrified when i accidentally rammed my car into a pedestrian and watched the euphoria engine at work

shes cool though. she loves the sixaxis bowling minigame. guess the wii would be a great gift for her.

heh, my dad thought burnout paradise was too violent. God knows how he'll react when I run over people in GTA IV.

Strangely enough he had no problems with motorstorm's ragdoll physics.

Regardless of the fact, I'm not about to experiment their reaction with GTA IV. They have yet to be exposed to it yet and I intend to keep it that way!
