I think he has gone. His mum needed the computer.
My girlfriend hates the 360, but she really likes Viva Pinata. Get that, and two controllers, as it allows either controller to play (so you never have to yank the controller from the other person's hand, it's much more friendly). That said, online gaming and stuff like Gears of War pisses her off, and she always leaves the room when I play anything like that.

If a ban is issued for that, there is no justice in this world. Hahaha.

Also to seriously answer this idiotic thread... just buy Viva Pinata with your Xbox 360 and give her a good **** to go with it.
If she still is complaining then give her Bomberman for her birthday.

Losers! My wife has me on lock!
Ok am back. Had to bring the fricken garbage out. Seriously, though, I play Wii all the time. Wife doesn't like it though so convincing her to allow me to get a 360 is tough. She doesn't like the graphics of Wii sports, which granted they are simplistic I think their kinda cool.

I was in the same situation once, Newzboyz99, so don't let them give you a hard time. She was controlling like you would not believe, she wouldn't put out, and practically paraded another man in front of me. From my experience, you just have to demand a divorce. She'll then remind you that she is actually your mother and it's really time that you moved out. Best of luck!

So, I need to know of GOOD games that the wife and I can play together to help convice her to allow me to buy the thing.
I know most of you guys live in your parents basements, so for you guys just think of games that your imaginary girlfriends would enjoy.
Um, Viva Pinata?
Anyways, I would just buy one and suffer getting yelled at for a few days.

Is it just me or does everyone misread the original poster's intentions? I think it's pretty clear that he can physically buy a 360 whenever he wants to. The problem is not the allowing part that he stupidly says in the title, but that he wants the wife to enjoy it with him as well.
That part is pretty understandable if you've ever been in a serious relationship. It sucks when I love some game or have a passion about another hobby and my girlfriend doesn't see anything of interest there. I'm used to sharing everything else with her, so it really hampers my enjoyment.
So I'll try to help out, at least with an example: my roommate got his girlfriend into 360 with Lemonade Stand on XBLA.
But if you're just going to do it to have sex with her and make babies that will grow up to vote for Bush Jr. Jr., you can go play your Wii by yourself.

wtf kind of fun sapping beasts are you guys marrying? first off NEVER mix money. my own mom taught me that one. solves 90% of the problems you'll have in a relationship right there. why would you marry someone that has a problem with games? or any enjoyment you might have? that goes for all of you. stop settling you fools. news. buy the 360 then when she refuses sex in retaliation just jizz on her back while she sleeps. skeet skeet.
I think because perhaps he cares a lot about his relationship and doesn't want to act like a complete immature idiot. Relationships are about sacrifice. Perhaps Battersea Power Station was right, and he wants her to enjoy it too. I don't know. But you don't know anything about the dude's relationship except what's been posted here; which is very little indeed.thirty said:

Wow there is always someone in every thread who defends fools.
Nutless fools in this case.

I'm not defending the guy, just trying to use some reasoning other than calling him a dickless disgrace to men as some people have said. I'll admit, he shouldn't be coming onto a game board, much less GAF, asking for tips to get his wife to let him buy a 360. I just think that everybody deserves some kind of a chance.

The first, most important, and probably most difficult step is to GROW SOME ****ING BALLS AND UNTUCK YOUR DICK FROM BETWEEN YOUR LEGS. The rest is amazingly simplistic:
Take YOUR money, that YOU worked hard for, and buy a 360. Make sure you're playing it when she gets home. Politely explain that if you want to spend $400 of your money, you will. If she accepts it cool, if not ignore the **** out of her while you're playing your brand new 360(believe me, Gears on surround makes it damn easy to ignore nagging females). She'll get over it. If not, you shouldn't be with the golddigging trick anyway.

Only if she won't fight you for the system. I'm ashamed to admit it but sometimes I think that's a part of me that considers games>chicks. At the last E3, I blew off a really cute PR chick because I wanted to try out her company's game. I felt like a total dork afterwards but OTOH I would have regretted not playing that game.
