Author Topic: Good multiplayer games for the wife (Read 1788 times)

I never really thought my wife would be too interested in playing any video games, but last night I was playing THPS3 and she was doing the "now that your not paying attention to me I\'m jealous and want your attention" thing. So, I asked her if she\'d want to play some games, and she said that actually she would sometime.

So, what would be some good 2 player PS2 games that would be fun for a couple to play together. I\'m more into action/adventure/horror/sports games, and she isn\'t into much of that. And I\'m certainly not a fan of dance games or anything like that. So, with that in mind, any good suggestions of some 2 player games that might be worth renting/buying?

Maybe a golf game perhaps, or even timesplitters.

You really want a GameCube so you can play Monkey Ball!! or Super Smash Brothers.

It\'s really better as a take turns at one player kinda game,but SSX Tricky has two player and my g/f loves it.

Thanks for the suggestions, I\'ll try some of those.

And, even though ICO isn\'t a multiplayer game, I told her about it, and she sounds interested, so maybe I\'ll get her playing that and just help if she gets stuck.

I suggest Baldur\'s Gate Dark Alliance. The co-op is fun...although your wife WILL run around behind you stealing all the treasure. As of now, my GF has about 15,000 gold and I have about 3400....

If I do get a GC (which I have been considering), I\'ll definitely check Monkey Ball out. I haven\'t played it, but I\'ve heard nothing but good things.

It\'s not everyones cup of tea, believe me...

But the chickity should dig it. It\'s cutesy, fun and addictive (at least the multiplayer, the single player is FRUSTRATING AS ****ING ****!!!!)

You should also always consider Tekken 4, put her health up high and yours down low and go go go. It\'s deep, but it\'s also easy for beginners.

Cookie & Cream is the perfect game for you to play with your wife. It will show her how well you 2 work together and not how you can fill her carcas full of bullets..... (That comes later)

I highly recommend SSX Tricky!! My girlfriend loves it to the point that she is the one suggesting to fire up the ps2 to play it rather than the other way around.

Oh yeah, Timesplitters with all the goofy characters. I would also suggest Halo if you had an Xbox. The co-op campaign is fun. As a matter of fact she got mad at me when I told her I beat the game on my own!

These damn developers need to make it second-nature to include features such as the co-op campaign in their FPS games. Are you listening Volition? I guess not...
