Top 5 Friday: Top 5 Worst Videogame Romances

I liked Joker and Edi and how do you 'accidently' sleep with Zevran the guys as subtle as an archdemon.

This isn't Lisa Foiles :-(

Agree with Joker/EDI, I thought it was far too damned weird, even for BioWare trying to cater for everyone. How it was made so commonplace, and in fact, the paragon option is scary. Encouraging a man to hook up with a computer is just frikkin' bizarre and I'd never condone such a thing in real life.

I could point out many problems with this, but first and foremost is simple. If the guy had actually paid attention to what was being said, the romance scene with Zervan wouldn't have caught him off-guard. Seriously to miss something like that you'd have to had skipped through diaolgue or have been extremely obtuse and missed the hints.

Yeah, same here on both counts. With all the genuinely mock-worthy and cheeseball romances in games, these two (and pacman, really?) made the list?

Oh look, it's Joshua from King of the Nerds. That's cool.

Worst I can think of has to be Ethan and Madison in Heavy Rain.
Oh you're a brooding, stressed-out, suspected serial killer that I've just met and have been spying on? Let's have sex. I love you.

I'm sorry we couldn't save your son, but it's okay, you can just have one with me!

Dear god, a million times this for the Heavy Rain romance! It was so ridiculous! It came out of NOWHERE!

This has to be the single most homophobic as well as transphobic bit of "entertainment" this website has ever published. Oh, and to crown the turd, an obligatory "Peach is obliged to put out" finish.

Absolutely disgraceful. How did this ever get greenlit?
