    Noticed ME2 mentioned in the comments, but let's not forget pretty much ANY Bioware game romance. Aerie or Jaheira in Baldur's Gate 2, Bastila in KotOR, Ashley in the original ME and so on.

    Went for Tali in ME2. It was strangely disappointing...

    I'm all for Shadow Hearts. Alice and Yuri, really nice and heart breaking story.

    Shepard and Garrus was a very emotionally resonating love story for me in Mass Effect 2. Too bad there's no homosexuality in the future, unless it's with blue ladies, because Garrus has always been my favorite character, and only my female Shepard gets him.

    My favorite was actually Dom and Maria from Gears 2 since it didnt involve a happy ending.

    You left out the biggest gaming love story of all - The one between me and X-Play. Even if it is unrequited. Sigh.

    Sweeeet Shadow of the Colossus was one of the most moving love tales I have ever played.

    My vote is for mass effect 2. forget the love triangle, try love octagon (or maybe hectagon.. i dont know, i lost count)

    The real tragedy hear was the oldest, most beloved love story in all of gamedom.... Princess Peach and Mario!!! I mean the guy risks his life all the time to save her, and if she isn't in the castle he goes to the next one like no big deal.

    Puahahahah..Salem & Rios' Bromance. Good stuff.

    Alex & Luna FTW! Lunar...the OTHER best classic RPG, next to Chrono Trigger. (^_^)

    But no mention of Isaac & Nicole? [Dead Space]
    Or Dom & Maria? (ESPECIALLY Dom & Maria) [Gears 2]
    Or John117 & Cortana? [Halo 1-3]

    haha salem and rios. i was going to mention the lack of final fantasy relationships in there, but I guess I agree with JDarkley. It would have been too obvious.

    I like when you guys do these top five things. keep it up. Is this a regular section on X Play? I might have to start watching if it is.
