Vira's Valentine Special!

My new article is out over at justpressstart.net! It's a list of my favorite couples in gaming and, of course, a Monday Night Combat duo makes the list. ^.~

What are some of your favorite couples in the realm of games? Have you ever played a game where the romance just destroys the plot and annoys you to death? Discuss!

You didnt seem to like it when u were on a team w me and my bf :x :lol:

Actually, I have no problem with people. You're the one who chooses to give people petnames and backseat games. And since you feel the need to interject yourself, I also have no problem with revealing that you're the one that partially inspired my 'Queen of XBOX' article. You're the perfect example of a rude, aggressive female gamer who is that way for no other reason other than the fact they encounter another female gamer. The fact you jumped onto this thread is only further proof of that.

Women need to learn how to get along in the world of gaming. It's not a competition to see who's the best amongst us or who's the queen of the boys. We need to take pride in our gamerscores and our achievements -- not in the fact we're someone with an XX chromosome holding a controller.

But I'm done with this discussion. I'm not going to argue on the forums because it's immature. I'm here to promote my article and foster discussion about its subject matter. If you want to discuss personal issues between us, do the mature thing and PM me.

It might just be my ME fanboydom, but I somewhat expected Shepard+Ashley or Liara. Or just Shepard the Pimp with all of them.

A few people brought up the exclusion of Shepherd/Ashley. The truth of the matter? I'm currently playing 'Mass Effect' as we speak. YES. I'm late to this bandwagon. I'm sure they'll make it onto next year's list. Haha.

Precisely.

I counter with this.

Oh Ian...

Ian always posts the best things.



I still say the best video game couple is Heavy and Medic. : O

AGREED. In my head, Heavy/Medic is SO canon.

Vira, hit me up with a FR if you want to game with a girl who will call you "Chachi" and threaten to pull yo' weave out.

J/K!!!! Girls are weird with each other in general.

Buy wouldn't it be fun to cal someone "chachi" for no reason? It sounds funny!

For your article, you gotta include a Shep 'ship at some point when you're done with ME. Fem shep all the way! I love my fem Shep, she kicks so much ***.

I totally suggested a couple things here. It was pretty inadvertent. Honestly, I hate lists.

And Valentine's Day.

Fem Shep + Liara.

Sorry, but Kaidan was boooooooooooooring.

I'll take you up on that offer! I'm all up for adding fierce bitches to my list. I'm a child of the 90's. The Spice Girls help me embrace a little something called Girl Power. MMHMMM.

Your tag is Miss Informed, right? Or am I thinking of someone else?

I like Fem Shep better. From what I've seen, the voice acting is better than MaleShep. And .. yeeeeeah. Kaidan is a bit of a bore. My girl is so playing for the other team.

I am indeed Miss Informed.

Uh...yeah...no...no matter how I say that, it doesn't sound good.

You have Oby / Asydic on your FR, right? I hold her uuuurrrangs when she gets into a fist fight.

I do have her on my list. :] She seems really sweet. I like her.

Amazing article as always. The only thing I'd like to point out is the lack of Link/Zelda. They've been around for quite some time and even though they arn't as obvious as Mario/Peach I still feel liked they deserved a mention. Oh well great article enjoyed the read

I debated putting them on the list and came really closed to doing so. But, in the end, I decided against it. If I were doing a list of the greatest couples in gaming history, they'd be there. But since it's MY favorite couples, I left them off. They just never stuck out to me? I don't know why. Matter of preference.

Your all so mistaken....what kind of MNC players are you.

I present to you, the #1 couple
