True, but once you get to the later levels and the floors are constantly covered in vomit, you've got 8 kidney stone patients inbound and none of your surgeons will get out of the staff room, it get's a bit heavy - especially when you have to break off every 30 secs to shoot rats. Maybe I just wasn't clean enough.
 
my mom always completed my christmas presents that were games (ps2 etc).

Made me sad, i never got to finish a game of spyro.
 
My mums completely hooked on the sims, im getting her a graphics card for christmas :p

That and detective games, there was some sherlock holmes type game she was playing not long ago that only cost like £3 and she loved it!
 
my mum as finshed back in ps1 days....alone in the dark, resident evil 1-2-3, tomb raider 1-2-3-4 and space invaders

possibly only games she as ever played to
 
Anything to keep our mothers from the amateur pron :p

Mine likes to dig around too much on the web for time to play games.
Unless you consider google to be some kind of strat game.

My Mum has played World of Goo. Thats all that springs to mind. Although her Sister, my Aunt, plays Half life 1/2, Doom, Duke Nukem, Far Cry and so on... She is the one who introduced to me to Pc gaming really when I was a pup.
 
My dad played some Wii Sports with me the other day. :P

I remember he played Gran Turismo with me back in the day. In his 50s right now.

If it's easy to get the hang of, anyone can play it. He was pretty good at the golf :P
 
In my old WoW guild, I had three generations from the same family in our a raid group. It was pretty cool tbh
 
We had a few 2 generation families in our old guild which was pretty nice.

Our oldest player had his 68th birthday whilst he was still playing. He played rogue as his main and was top 5 dps for the most part of his time with us, he also played arena heavily and managed some of the best ranks in our battlegroup. His wife also played a little, she didn't raid with us but she played BG's and helped him level/grind and do daily quests during the day when everyone else was at work. Think she was 65-66.

Let me know how she gets on with RCT, looking for something to ween my mum off PvZ
 
I've managed to get my mother playing Driving games. She's slowly getting better at Shift & Dirt2. I think the G25 Wheel & Pedals makes all the difference, as its an interface she's familiar with.
Even my Gran wanted a go and managed 3 laps on Dirt, she must be 75 or so!

Mother has also found the popcap games site though :rolleyes:
