Suggestions on GIRL games

[Mick Dundee]

  Ok. I don't know why or how it came to be... but I have two 360 Elites in my dinky 1 bedroom apartment.

 My wife wanted to play Fable 2, so we bought another 360.

 I want her to have some games she likes to play
(I just don't want this to be a new thing she got and used for a month and never again)

 So, I was wondering if anyone had some suggestions for somewhat EASY Action/Adventure or Action/RPG type games.

 She's Enjoying Fable quite a bit, and I have Prince of Persia from Gamefly right now (everyone says you can't really die)

Aside from those she liked both Kingdom Hearts, and Zelda games and seemed interested in my Naruto games for the 360.

 Any Help would be appreciated, and newer or unreleased game suggestions are welcome.


Thanks everyone...now I'm gonna get ready to see Star Trek

I think you can't go wrong with the LEGO games (Star Wars, Batman, Indiana Jones). LEGO Rockband comes out sometime in fall and has a more beginner friendly approach.

I'd also suggest Kameo, which is a pretty good game and should be dirt cheap by now.

Blue Dragon is also pretty good and one of the easier RPGs. As for Prince of Persia like games I'd say try Tomb Raider Anniversary and Tomb Raider Underworld.

The Viva Pinata games also seem to be a hit with the ladies

LIPS maybe? Girls wanna sing right?

Although buying this game could be horrible mistake....

Capcom's The Little Mermaid for the Nintendo is probably the best "Girl's Game" that I know of. Of course, it's pretty difficult...

Mrs G loves Peggle from live arcade. So do i for that matter. She did like a game of Puzzle Quest too.

just read that Sakura taisen V is comeing to the US in the fall for ps2 ,  thats an rpg that has a more girly style to it ,and if you have a saturn magic knight rayearth was a cool action rpg ( even has a 2 season anime if she likes the game ) sadly most girl games fall into the 5 year olds catagory , basically my sister plays most of the games i do and she always liked games with great storylines so any old school rpgs might be a winner  suchs as lunar 1 and 2 or final fantasy IV and VI

Oh yeah, forgot all about Magic Knight Rayearth.

I remember when Growlanser V came out for the PS2, they tried to market it as a yaoi fan-girl fantasy... which seemed pretty strange to me, considering Growlanser II & III heavily marketed the female characters and their... *cough* "Assets".

Growlanser II and III were really good games though - I haven't played G5, but if it is as good as G2/3, it's great.

Thanks for the advice everyone.

 I know the LEGO approach is good (We have and beat the LEGO Star Wars for PS2)
 But seeing as there are  Gamer Points involved...maybe she'll play them again.
 And I do believe she dropped a hint at wanting LEGO Batman.

 Funny thing is I have a lot of what was listed, I'll just have to tell her to try them.

 I am a bit confused with the Blue Dragon suggestion though... I played the demo and got pissed off....
 perhaps its a bit more easy from the beginning...ether way, I own BD just because its an RPG and I enjoy Akira Toriyama's Anime and Video Games. (DBZ & Chrono Trigger mostly)


 I also JUST picked up Viva Pinata, Shrek the 3rd, and Sonic the Hedgehog in a 3 pack at Wal-Mart for 15 bucks.


Thanks again Everyone

Good deal for the 3-pack but Sonic the Hedgehog was so frustrating, constantly falling off edges from a "homing" attack.
