Game Suggestions - Play with the Girlfriend / Wife

Hey folks, just looking for a game my wife might enjoy playing. If i get a game she likes, the HDTV and new Elite might work over better with her....lol.

She is semiretarded when it comes to controllers, so something kinda easy, easy learning curve. and she doesnt like voilence.

I was thinking Viva Pinata, or something like that...

There's a steep learning curve with Viva Pinata, but it would appeal to her. It's a great game.  If you have Xbox Live, you can download a demo. Kameo is another great game and it also has a demo.

There's also a ton of XBLA games that may appeal to her. They also have demos.

thats a good idea. maybe ill start her off on the XBL games, little easier, then break her into the bigger games. Thanks.

Gears of war is a good game

But seriously viva pinata is very fun but is actuall somewhat of a difficult game but there is lots of fun stuff to do and people to talk to.  Forza 2 or another racing game are always fun. 

awe suggestions everyone.

I will get the mini golf game for sure, and Guitar Hero 2, but i want that game too, so it works for both of us. My wife likes racing games, that are a little easier, not the Sim style, so ill have to check those out, and Viva Pinata....well, ill rent that first and see how she likes it. You guys have been great.

If anyone has other suggestions, lay em on here, cause the more games i got for her, the better. LOL.

As mentioned by many already Guitar hero II is the way to go on the 360 (the other way to go is to also get a Wii).

Finally finished off a couple of games so i could justify getting GHII yesterday on my way home from work.  I walked into the house with it and my wife rolled her eyes.  I told her I could bring it back as it was pretty pricey and I have several other games That i will be buying the last half of this year.  She rolled her eyes and said "whatever, i don't care".  She is a gamer but that typically isn't her type of game (she's an RPG, Mario, Zelda and occassional FPS type).

I couldn't get her off the 360 last night as she was instantly addicted.  As have the wives/girlfriends of many friends i know for that game...gamers and non-gamers alike.
