thats a good question. i have found that most of the girls that i hang out w/ are pretty much like "compu-what?" or, if your going for a little younger class, then games like "barbie horsies" or something like that might do.
i usually reserve the computer for after school and after a long night of partying, and i dont try to attract ladies w/ it, even tho my bling bling chrome and lights dont hurt

Women dont like games, they are far to sawfistimicated...and besides, whenever a guy gives something all his atention, and none of it to her, they are gonna through a hissy fit(personal exp)

give them 20 bucks and tell them to go shopping, they love you long time

The ONLY game I found (so far) that my wife likes is Dungeon Siege, but only because she's into reading fantasy stuff too.
If she were into car racing, I'm sure there's an appropriate game for that, or wrestling, or housekeeping (Sim's House Party?) which my daughter loves, but her room is a shambles!

Avx487... man, you are getting off cheap!!! $20??? Women I know are all like "I like diamonds..." or "let's go to Tiffany's..."

Unless you find a girl that truly likes games, don't try to get them hooked. They'll think you are a dork... unless it's GTA Vice City and she's in a really foul mood... slapping prostitutes and flipping a bus should put anyone in a good mood.

Haven't known any girls who were really into gaming. Or computers, for that matter.
