Well we just got an xbox, I know there are tons of games out there but I don't know most of the games out there... I'm just wondering if there are any that appeal especially to girls? rolleyes.gif

Those that I've enjoyed so far

- Star Wars Battlefront
- Topspin

In case you were wondering, nope, FIFA does not interest me. tongue.gif

Anything else? Hoping you could throw up a few names, maybe link me to someplace I could review the game before heading down to the shops. smile.gif

Please, no Barbie Plays Dress Up or whatnot thank you very much indeed... dry.gif

Thanks lots!

DOA beach volley ball smile.gif

but more seriously I would just recomend the usualy, halo 2, project gotham racing, etc.

basically just do some research on a game. (www.gamefaqs.com might help) and decide on wether it looks fun or not. As far as i know there aren't any "girl specific" games out there...

hello there, the games for girl gamers are hard to come by really because sadly enough the gaming industry is directed toward male players, but they are slowly coming out with games for girls, like more of a racing with female characters, because i find alot of the time its the female characters or lack of in a game that somewhat distorts teh direction of gameplay and user audiences.

Actually there are female characters in star wars.

One of the best characters ever, Ayla Sakura or however you spell it and Amadilla, Padme, Leia are some of them that are in alot of Star Wars games including being playable.

The newest Star Wars, Star Wars BattleFront II has Ayla and Leia as playable characters.

Plus don't forget that droidlike female in the Star Wars animation cartoon on TV.

Also, yea there are no games really directed to girls, they are just putting more girls in games. Games aren't really for guys either, they are mostly unisex.

Alot of fighting games have alot of girls in them, not counting DOA, those girls are sl*ts and they are mainly for guys.

I remember back in the old playstation days I used to actually have fun playing that Spice Girls Dance game.

Right now they have a Britney dancing game but who likes her anymore?

well. i suppose if you count the "special" characters like darth maul that you can play as for a limited time period in the game.

but so far i haven't come across any female special characters in battlefront it's been mostly darth vader and darth maul and luke skywalker.. etc..

Actually I was thinking of Barbie and Ken have bought a new house, but anyway...

www.gamespot.com is a good place to start looking for reviews and stuff for any game and console (including pc).

I think you might find some fun in adventure games like Syberia, or Monkey Island (older series) and similar games.
Maybe No One Lives Forever is for you since main characher is female.

p.s. Why don't you like Barbie? I do tongue.gif

there really arent alot of girl games as stated before. Mostly the stuff they put for girls where all singing games like american idol and britney spears one. Know they have made all those games you can play on the dance mat. Those are the only ones i know that are basically for just girls.

1 in 4 gamers are girls.

There are game that cater more for the female audience, like The Sims. But generally most if not all games are not made for male or females but for a certain personality - people who like action, rle playign , sports etc.
