Many of the women I have dated have disliked my gaming hobby, mainly because it made me spend less time with them.
I've sort of continued to have the mindset that gaming is unattractive and should be hidden now, and usually when I casually date I don't bring it up, even though it's a fairly significant part of my life. Probably a mistake.
In moderation it's fine but yea I don't see it as a tool if you want to put your best foot forward.
A lot of my friends game, granted we are all casual now but still. There are a lot of things that give a much better first impression than telling the other person you game. This seems to be especially true in the 22-25 year range.

Sadly this kinda ruined my last relationsship. On the weekend I wanted to play, and during the week she had school and had to study a lot. in the end we got into a lot of fights.
Not all of us!
I'm probably going to get savaged by a box of angry baboons now, courtesy of my fellow moderators. Barring Macro.
That said, my girlfriend dislikes the amount of games I play, and doesn't really play games herself. She is also crazy good at breaking electronic equipment. I don't even say this in jest, it's something we both laugh about
(though she's getting cooler with video games because she's beginning to listen when I talk about making games and such)

certainly not a mistake.
Gaming is unattractive to most people, i think.
As for the question in the OP.
I had a really really shallow relationship with my ex, we didn't go out because she can't handle loud noises and we didnt really have similar interests. I always play a game of HoN when she showers, or when i really want to. But god she didn't support it. She always wanted me to be right next to her, it was bothersome.
Reason we broke up is because we didn't or couldn't do anything. :/

Well, i myself am the quiet guy who doesnt really speak alot, but ive had one GF so far. After 2 years i know that she wasnt really that much into my hobbies, i tried getting her into it, showing that it actually is fun, but she only wanted to play tetris (oh god i hate that game :<)
I know, that if i want a GF in my life, it has to be a somewhat gaming one. Maybe i am addicted to the computer, but i am having a damn good time, and i wont give it up, only for school and money and social life.
Problems start when you're trying to impose your interests onto the other. If you show interest in your significant other's hobby and/or passion, chances are they'll do the same for you. Who knows you might actually discover a new interest.
I wasn't much into cars for example before I met my boyfriend but since he taught me about them and showed me how passionate he was about his car and why, I started to appreciate them more. He did the same with me and my art. I can't see why games should be any different; it's not something you bring up on a first date but nobody really cares about the other person's passion on a first date anyway.
I dated one girl who was into video games (Wii/Nintendo casual stuff, Sim series) and the rest thought it was a waste of time.
Whatever. LIke Lhune said, be open about your hobbies but don't try and push them. Hiding them is retarded as it shows you're insecure about yourself and what you do. That is far more unattractive...common sense though people, doesn't mean you open the conversation with "I GOT A LEVEL 80 NIGHT ELF!"

girlfriend games, got me into a few betas too(D3/swtor). shes not hardcore (we play lol vs bots together) but has played a few mmos in her time and is a good healer to have around =] she supports me alot and sometimes tells me what hon hero to pick if i cant decide/wishes me luck for the game. Shes mostly over games but is okay with me playing as long as i still give sufficient attention to her and pull my weight around the house.
