Girls often prefer simple, addictive games like tetris, and their special favourite, Windows Solitaire and Freecell!


My wife is totally opposite that remark.  She's played and beat more games than I can count on hands and feet.  Duke Nukem 3D, Planet of the Babes, and Manhatten Project;  Diablo 1&2, Warcraft 2&3, Dungeon Seige, Rune, Tribes, Nox just to name a few.  Now she's pestering me to upgrade video hardware for Doom 3.

Games like Freecell and Solitare are never played by her.  Hell, she won't even play chess with me because "there's no blood and guts!"
