Any recommendation for a Xbox 360 game(s) I could play with my wife?

My wife bought me a 360 for Christmas, and I can tell that she may be jealous already of me playing it. She can't do the FPS thing. She hasn't really ever gamed before and she can't do the two thumbsticks at once thing. I need a game (any style or genre) that doesn't require great hand-eye coordination that is multiplayer.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I highly recommend fusion frenzy 2 and fusion frenzy 1. They have really fun mini games like bumper cars, rol:ler ball, mini hockey, and over 100 other weird games in there. It's really fun, and it's the kind of thing you both can enjoy. It's also safe for kids.

Here's a non-review of the game to show gameplay. I found a good review but it had language not appropriate for kids. You can youtube "fusion frenzy" to find some reviews.

I have been a gamer of various kinds since high school, which means more than 40 years. My experience has been that it is hopeless to get girls or women interested in gaming, or at least the same kind of games. At best they will dabble a bit to humor their guy, then stop. The best my friends or I have ever come up with is to explain that gaming is a lot better than us going out drinking or even playing poker with the guys. It's better to be a golf widow than married to someone with an alcohol or gambling problem, and videogaming is more or less in the same category as golf.

Well, she actually is interested in it. She plays the CSI game, but I'm looking for something that she doesn't have to have video game experience (or much ability) to get into. She tries to play Halo and COD4, but gets frustrated cause she's not good. She's already interested, I just want to encourage her with a game we can do together and that she can be good at.

My wife has made it apparent that she's not interested in video games or sci-fi movies. But she's open minded and her love for me is enough (I hope) to keep her from labeling me as a total nerd.

With that said there have been a few games that have come out over the past couple of years that have really interested her. Specifically any of the rhythm/music games like Dance Dance Revolution, Guitar Hero or Rock Band.

Gaming is such a personal thing that answering this question is difficult without knowing your wife or the previous games she might have played (even if just for a short time).

You might want to check out the link I have included in my source for a list of games that was put together for guys looking to get their girlfriends into gaming.
