Why Do So Many Girls Often Like The Same Games?

I've noticed that there are a number of games that females are particularly attracted to. Of course, this is not to say that male gamers don't also enjoy these games, nor am I implying that all or even most girls like these games. I am simply pointing out what I've noticed, and that is that many of the girls I've met enjoy these games especially. Some games that I've noticed many girls are often drawn to include the following: - Sims - Animal Crossing - Fable - Minecraft - Pokemon / Legend of Zelda - RPGs (especially Skyrim) - Call of Duty / Halo / Destiny - Little Big Planet - Guitar Hero / Rock Band - Devil May Cry - MMOs - Mobile Games So the question is, what is it about these games, specifically, that so many women seem to enjoy? [spoiler]I don't care to hear [i]"Someone's gender doesn't determine what kinds of games they enjoy and it's sexist to think so"[/i]. Certain people are often drawn to certain things. I will not discuss this point.[/spoiler] [b][u]Important Edit:[/u][/b][spoiler]Many people seem to not be properly understanding the question, so I will phrase it another way here. Why are girls more attracted to the games listed above than other games such as the following?: Other FPS games aside from those listed. Racing games. Fighting games. Horror games. Strategy games. Survival games aside from those listed. Puzzle games. Other Nintendo titles aside from those listed. Platformers. Games similar to Dark Souls. Probably more that I'm forgetting. [/spoiler]

  • In that list vs the second list, I see the main difference being story and characters are primarily dominant in the first list then the latter. The first list is a list of popular wide ranging games. I wouldn't be surprised if more guys in that list played those games more then guys in the later list. But I know that is not the point. The second list seems to appease those who like those specific genres of games. Im not a gal so your best answer would probably be that from women. But from what Ive seen from the list your provided is that alot of people are attracted to popular, story/character driven, multiplayer focus, good looking games that work.
