Although an internet video game forum would be the only place I would ever admit this, I'm a romantic at heart. But only with my video games.

Tell me some games that you think have a decent love story. I'm thinking along the lines of:
Uncharted series
FFVIII
MGS
etc.

Do it!

Hmmm...
Robotech: Battlecry.
Well, if you count Rick and Minmei...
Yeah, I have no real knowledge of romance in games...

Why did you even bother posting in this thread then?
Some people have meaningful stuff to contribute.

Dragon age? Mass effect?

Probably every Bioware game that I haven't played?

I really can't think of many. Final Fantasy VIII and X are pretty much centered around love stories. Shadow of the Colossus is a good example of someone going through a lot for the one they love but there isn't any interaction in the game between Wander and Mono. I was about to suggest Snake and The Boss in MGS3 but their relationship isn't really love either.

If you don't specifically mean romantic love then I would say Yorda and Ico although they never express it, it's more implied/inferred.

You guys talk about this game so much I am ashamed that I never played it. I will have to pick it up.

So heart wrenching.
Jeez....thanks!

I don't know, something about the Bioware love stories just don't do it for me. They seem like they are more like sidequests, not really having anything to do with the story.

Is that from the game "Ico"? Is that made by the same people who did Shadow of the Colossus?

The game's 5 years old and you haven't played it.

Getting it spoiled is your punishment!

I was thinking of Lost Planet, except that never really gets any closure. Hopefully if they make a sequel (which I hope they do) then the romantic subplot will be resolved nicely.

He speaks the truth.

Shame on you for not playing ANY of them.

I thought that Knights of the Old Republic had a decent love plot with Bastila/Male Revan and Carth/Female Revan.
