marcus has no emotions, so when he starts to freak about about anya, its more than just shocking
to me the queen looks kinda normal, but as far as im concerned she has to be like 1000 years old or something

What kind of a chick would'nt want to be with the badass hero. Women love the confidence and your gonna need a hell of a lot if your gonna save the whole damn world from annialation. And look at some of the good romances in games.
Tidus and Yuna
Ico and Yorda
Sora and Riku
Just to name a few.

There is no romance between Gordon Freeman and Alyx Vance.

I repeat, there is no romance between them.

Not in Half Life 2 or either of the episodes anyway.

Besides, Gordon is quite a bit older than Alyx, I'm pretty sure that she was just a child when Black Mesa happened.
What are you talking about nothing between Gordon and Alyx? That's like saying there was nothing between Mulder and Scully. The whole series is about their relationship! Just 'cause they've not actually done it yet doesn't mean it's not there. When Alyx threw her arms around you at the beginning of Episode One... Awesome.

You're right about the age differance though. Dating you best mate's daughter - that's pretty weird.

who knows, i would not doubt it (how did she get to the locust, with their technology, if she lead them there shed have to be a bit aged). plus, i sometimes exaggerate things like that

Dom and Maria from Gears 2 felt tacked on and too intrusive, whereas Maria was mentioned maybe twice in Gears 1, and never by name. Seems kinda like they were trying to grab a few heart-strings with the sequel. Still, I DO like how there is now someone in the Gears universe who has human emotions.

PoP did the romance thing well I think, but for Halo it was just... unnecessary.

Most games don't have a tacked on love interest, I don't know where you're getting this from.

Hey! I'm 14 and I take offense to that. Us impressionable young 'uns fap to much better things than horribly written love interests in games.

If it's well written, fine, go ahead. If not, YOU HAVE THE MARKET CORNERED ON BLOOD AND BOOBIES. STOP. NOW. I am annoyed by every other advert I see being sexual. I GET IT I HAVE A DICK. WOMEN ARE ATTRACTIVE. YOUR PRODUCT/GAME STILL SUCKS.

Have you heard of Onechanbara: Bikini Samurai Squad? Developers make what they think you want. Buy good games, not ones with porn in it. That's what the internet is for. NOT GAMES.

Whats the point of being a badass action hero if you don't get laid?
Perfect answer. What will you save the world for, if not a hot chick?
What if you're a gay hero?
And what if you just like like to live in the world?
Psh. Who has that mindset? :p
And if you're gay? I guess you better have a but-budd boyfriend.
Damn you South Park for making me think of that first!
I have no need for a relationship but I would save the world for videogames and books.
they are awesome, but.........

Hot chicks > videogames & books. Sorry man.
I'd definitely give up sex for music.
In other words, I'd rather die a virgin than go without music for the rest of my life.

EDIT: Double posting mayhem! Sorry.
Good thing u can have both
True, but if I had to choose as some sort of... I dunno, divine punishment or something, I'd keep my music.

The fact that you, who has a Gears avatar, can confidently say that Dom-Maria was intrusive earns you a million respect points.
But the Gears characters do show human emotions! I suppose feeling like a total badass is human. I know every time Dom goes "SUP BITCHES!" it makes me feel great.

I've played through a couple games just because I hoped that two of the characters would get it on at the end even though I knew that they wouldn't. Man, I need to get a life...

Gordon was put in temporal stasis. So while chronologically, he's 30 years older than Alyx, he's physically and memorically (that's not a word, but I meant memory), they could be about the same age.

Besides, when it comes to love, age doesn't apply. Once you can comprehend what love entails and means, of course.

Just because I sport a Marcus avatar doesn't mean I think Gears of War is the best series ever. Frankly, thats a title reserved for Quake. But besides death-related humor and lame insults, the Gears characters show pretty much no emotion.

On the topic of avatars, I wanted the coolest Gears character (RAAM) but couldn't find a good one. Maybe I'll look again soon, as this one draws too much negative attention.

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time had one of the very true gaming 'romances' which I actually enjoyed. It was a sweet and simple tale really and I think more developers should pay attention to how that game told its story. It was a classic fairy-tale style setting and story that really won the hearts and minds of many of its players such as myself.

Then came all the other PoP games which just screwed the whole thing up. Eug!

Oh yeah, I forgot about the stasis bit.

I wasn't saying that age should be a barrier to love, I was just pointing out that Gordon is a fair bit older than Alyx. I was just saying.

And did you imply that I don't have the ability to comprehend love?

I really enjoy a love story in a game, infact when there isn't one, I make up one in my head.

Not Bioware's. Those guys take their shit seroiusly, at least, and employ full time writers for their games.
Exactly, especially in Baldur's Gate 2 where you had 3 romance options as a male, realistic interaction between your different love interests and even a certain NPC trying to steal one of them from you. There's even a romance path for the female players. And for the person that asked for gay romances: there's an unofficial pack that enables this romance for male players too.

The good thing is that these paths are completely optional, while most so-called story-driven action games just have you trail along.
