Re: intermediate results
Upgrading is difficult, possibly a conversion program may be more accessible. For instance my wife-bot loves games up to about Mario level (Super NES Mario level), my plan is to acquire a Wii and hopefully convert her to mutually enjoyable games.
On the other hand, she very rarely gives me grief over the 12+ hours I spend at the computer a day as long as the rest of the waking moments are spent either being productive or kissing up to her.

Re: intermediate results
Anyone who's not married needs to be taking notes.
I learned the key was to be yourself (in my case a videogame dork) right out of the box. Then if she sticks around, she's accepted it. I have most of my old systems along with quite a selection of games.

Re: intermediate results
I'm 31. My wife never knew I played games until we were married and she moved in.
I've had to slowly acclimate her to it. Since being married I've had to cut down my game hours and had to stop playing time intensive games like WoW. Which is good for me in the long run because I have time for more productive things.
Just do your turn for the day and you're done.

Re: intermediate results
Hey Tibbs I was high warlord in wow. But I retired shortly after the expansion made all my high warlord gear useless.
I have no regrets though. It was fun for awhile, but at age 47, mashing buttons at supersonic speed is hard on the joints!
Give me dom III anytime.

I recommend upgrading to a computer-compatible wife. My lovely wife Lace came with GameFriendly™ installed. She has more computers than I do¹ and more games, too. Unfortunately, she won't play Dom3, because of all the micromanagement (Devs: this is why I keep asking for improvements. )
1: unless you count the house servers, which I keep running, as mine.
BTW, I'm 38 and she's 36.

Do you want to trade?
I'll offer a straight up trade. I know I should get more because mine is an antique and has papers to prove it, but I'm feeling expansive today, so I'll let you take advantage of me.

Yes, and every day we have to renew it because we both forget.
