Would they be willing to play Beanball Benny with me? 
On a serious note, reading that article made me gag. They are pandering to the stereotypical male gamer. What makes you think these girls will really give a shit about the guy? Guys who go bat-shit crazy at the thought of a girl playing a videogame? Guys who have no filter and end up blurting stuff like, "Show me your tits!", at the mere mention of a female being present?
At least in a bar/club, you (potentially) have the girl's attention for more than 8 minutes and can go dancing or chill and talk. Not to mention the effects alcohol has on judgment.
I thought it was pretty funny how the trial date had her boyfriend stand in behind her while she was on a 'date'.
