Saying that, she has watched us play Left 4 Dead 2 so much that she knew all the controls, weapons, special infect by their sounds and directions to go. She would teach the game to noobs coming to play. Yet she never played a second of it.
Strangely enough. I have bought many game titles twice and always lookout for co-op play games hoping that it is something my wife will find enjoyable and play with.
It seldom happens. She will sometimes say to me: I remember we played a game where I ran around and shoot people - that was pretty cool.
Oh boy - she likes FPS!! I show her all my FPS games and it will be: No it was not that. 'Babes. BF is the only FPS you ever played with me.' Nope - I do not remember it being like this - I do not like this.
I have tried every genre imaginable. Bought Monkey Island for her to try the other day. It was so frustrating watching her frustration - trying to help just makes it worse.

There were times when she would play a game with me for hours and she will tell me she had fun. That will be the first and the last time for that title. Next time I pull it out - it will be: You know I do not like shooting/monsters/aliens/space/puzzle/sword fighting/flying/racing (pick the genre) games. So weird She will then turn around and continue playing Candy Crush
