Well, as you either gladly remember or are desperately trying to forget, it's Valentine's Day, that romantic observance of mutual affection or hateful marketing contrivance--you know, depending on your perspective. Anyway, for those of you unlucky in love but lucky in, uh, MMOs, Mark Wallace over at The Escapist has a heartwarming and/or crazy (again, insert perspective here) piece about a couple that fell in love and married after meeting in the game Second Life.

Apparently, what Di and Un learned about each other was enough to convince them they wanted to know even more. And as they explored their online relationship further, they only liked what they found.
...
Shortly after Di and Un tied the virtual knot, they donned their real-life Sunday best, stood together before a real live person of appropriate authority, and said the actual words that would transform them from a couple of pixilated people who happened to meet in an online game into a couple bound together in the eyes of God and the law. In other words, they met in the real world, moved in together and got married.

It just warms your heart!

And, hey, how about this: what's the one game you would choose to be your Valentine? Not necessarily the "best game ever," or the one you'd take to the desert island, but the one that gives you the warmest memories. The game you remember most fondly. As you may have discerned from my shilling reminiscing, that game for me is Full Throttle, written and designed by Tim Schafer back in his LucasArts days. Sadly, adventure games later broke my heart when all the new ones, uh, stopped being good.
