Yep you did! Now why Do I see Cold Storage now the Escapist unoffical CUPID?canadamus_prime said:
I know that guy flew off the handle on the first page, and everyone's like "what the fuck, bro?", but I completely empathize with him right now. Seeing a thread full of people who happily game with, and likely sex, their significant others on a regular basis fills me with a powerful urge to carpet bomb an orphanage.
On a semi-related note, some dude wearing skinny jeans was complaining about something or other at work yesterday, and all I could think was "Fuck you. Some of us have the exact same problems plus we can't fit into those fucking jeans, so go fuck yourself." It's been a good week.

Don't have one at the moment. When I do I won't mind if they're not into gaming but considering I plan to make a career out of them I generally expect them to accept gaming. God knows that if she doesn't like games when we meet I'll try to reverse that though. We all started somewhere.
I recall when I bought an Xbox 360 (about a year after they launched) My fiancé couldn't believe that I'd waste that much money when I already had an Xbox/PS2 /sigh
So needless to say, shes not at all a gamer. I've tried to get her to play, but aside from the occasional game of Dr. Mario shes not at all interested in gaming. She would much rather read a novel while I game.

I play co-op games with my girlfriend all the time. Games we have played include:
Kane and Lynch
Gears of War
Call of Duty
RE5
Army of Two
Not all of them great... some even horrible, but we played them cause they were two player. The things I learned, pace yourself. We can only play together for an hour or so before we're arguing over the dumbest shit.
For example:
Me: "WHY'D YOU LET HIM KILL YOU?! YOU'RE USELESS!"
Her: "MAYBE IF YOU WEREN'T STANDING RIGHT BEHIND ME I COULDA RAN AWAY!"
Me: "RUNNING IS FOR COWARDS!"
And so on... and so on.

Pretty much anny MMO. You can go on raids/skirmishes together, craft eachother weapons & armor, etc.
Oh, interesting subject. Well, me and my boyfriend have played several games over the years. For now we spend some quality time in EVE online- at first i wasn't very attracted to the game, but i got really hooked on it, and we both love it. But we played WoW, diablo 2, some warcraft 3 modes, Unreal Tournament 2004, Heroes III, Worms and i can't really remember all of them. These are the ones that we played the most and enjoyed the most. Thing is, we love games in general, so it was only natural we would play video games together as well. So it's all fun and games ^_^
Oh, and i wish good luck to all the gamers so that they can find a bf/gf that will accept and even share their gaming habits

For the significant other side of the argument I'll get back to you when I have a boyfriend.
For co-op in general, this might sound a little embarassing but my father's always been my co-op partner in crime. If it's built around co-op and has a storied campaign then chances are we've probably played it (unless it's gotten terrible reviews), sometimes we end up playing through whole single-player games via the "A die each" method.

It's never brought up between me and my girl. She did say at one point that she liked games other than Halo, though we've never spoken about it since. I mentioned Assassin's Creed in her earshot and gave me and my mate a funny look. 0.o
So we just don't talk about it and find other things to do instead.

I was commiserating.Sir John the Net Knight said:
The really depressing part is that a girl who games is basically +2-3 leagues. Seeing as I'm already down around the 2-3 range, netting a gamer would have me dating a 0 or a 1. That's bridge troll territory.
I'm just kidding sorta.
My girlfriend loves the Assassin's Creed series, though we usually don't play together, cause whenever I try to play she distracts me and takes the controller.
man i agree, my gf and me now usually play some old rts games like age of empires 2Imp Poster said:
problem is she never really got into gaming as a whole, so it's usually me who tells her 'hey, lets go play this game', kinda gives me the feeling she plays it for me, instead of for the sake of playing it, but ah well, we have fun, thats waht its all about anyway.
