Hi Andrew,
First of all, on the subject of RPG romance, I'd like to point out that I met my boyfriend thanks to Sephiroth. So there.
Secondly, am I the only one who thinks FFX-2 is the single funniest and most self-ripoff-ish thing Square has ever come up with? No, really. It's like this. We all know FFX was a big giant ripoff of FFVIII (which I loved, believe it or not). I mean, the plot/chara similarities are just too damn obvious. But it's not just a ripoff of FFVIII, it's also a remake of Bahamut Lagoon. I won't assume you've ever heard of this game, but it's basically the SNES version of FFX. The plot and chara are EXACTLY the same. Now, that's okay, they did the same with FFVII and Vagrant Story, and we all know VS is the best game ever ne. But what about this: the airship in FFX-2 will be called CELSIUS, while the airship in Bahamut Lagoon was called, drumroll, FARENHEIT. Does this mean they've finally (oficially) run out of ideas? Am I just nitpicking here? Do kitties like donuts? Have you seen my medication?

Oh, jeebus cripes, I have to send you in another mailing? And about love? Fiiiiine.
I fell for my boyfriend (whom I've been dating for 3 years) while he was soundly beating Xenogears into a level 83 bloody pulp. He does this with games, though (you don't want to see the completeness of his Zelda games. Except for LttP... No one can ever find that last piece of heart! Noooooo....).
So, as most people know, Xenogears is chock-full of yummy plot. And Bishounen. And me, having just started my descent into fangirl madness, became obessed with this game, and in turn, rather cuddly with him. So deep is my love for both of them that I made us Fei and
Elly costumes for the Halloween after we started dating (and at that point we'd been dating for about 11 months.)
Myself, I've played the game about into the 2nd disk, and then kinda let the actual playing of it go. But, I do this with most games (since coming to college the only "new" game I've beaten is FF5. I've beaten the Playstation version of FF6 again, but that wasn't too new since I'd done it on my SNES in High School.) so I don't feel too bad about it.
Does that constitute a love-story with an RPG as a foci? Would it help to tell you that we've already started planning out what consoles we're going to make available to our kids and when? (Colecovision first, I think. =P) How about that I get all misty-eyed whenever I hear "Small of Two Pieces" and want to build him a music box that plays with XG's version of "Far Away Promise"?
On a side note, did you know that Yasunori Mitsuda put a different "Far Away(off) Promise" music box theme in XG, Crono Trigger, and Crono Cross? And they're all spiffy. Unfortunately, I have a hard time recalling the CC one's notes in my head, but CT and XG are pretty well lodged in there.
Ok, enough rambling.

Hey 'Drew -
Well, it's not really a love story focused on an RPG, but it's pretty darn close. Back in the day, when I was playing the third Breath of Fire game, I managed to get my girlfriend (at the time) seriously into the story of the game. Every time I'd talk to her, she'd ask how far I'd gotten and what had happened in the game. It was truly a great period of life. I could enjoy my game, and talk to her about it. What more could a gamer want?

Hey Host how's it hanging?
Here are some oldie questions because quite frankly, i can't find a job(stupid small town politics)
In FF6(PSX version) is there a max strength, couldn't get Sabin's over 136?
Is there a specific reason why I can't beat FFV or does that game just suck too much or is my game bugged(which it probably is seeing silence would only go against my party)?
In FFVII is it worth getting Aeris Final Limit break?
->(non-rpg question) How many episodes are there of Inuyahsa dubbed(I'm poor so sue me) and are they actually going to start playing new episodes of Yu Yu Hakusho?
Well, that's about all I can think of right now, adios amigo

Hey Andrew,
Please help me! Here's the story... about a week ago I was driving in my car. I realized it was a red light a little to late so I slam on my brakes. However, due to water on the ground, I slid right into the middle of an intersection. Then... WHAM. I hit some old granny in her van and she does some wack spin across the rest of the intersection. My car was hurt very badly ;_;
So anyway, I wasn't hurt because I was wearing my seat belt (click it, yo) and the old lady granny was ok as well. And despite the fact that the accident was my fault, she seemed concerned for my safety as well. Though I was more worried about the future of my car and how I would get my butt out of this deal I just crashed into, she kept asking me if I was okay and if I was sure and all that.
So I end up getting a ticket. But... the cop tells me that he suggests I show up in court anyway because if granny doesn't show up as well, the ticket goes out the window. According to Yahoo Maps, granny lives two and a half hours away. What do you think is the probability that this old bag will show up to the court on the appointed date? She's very far away, old people don't like to move around much, and she's probably paranoid of driving now. Also, since I now have her phone number since I got the police report, do you think I should call her up? I thought to myself that maybe I could tell her how sorry I am, how it's going to cost 7 thousand to fix my car, that my dad beat me for messing, that my mom has cancer, and how my dog died. I could also tell her I could paint her deck or do yard work but I don't really want to do any of that. What do you think I should do?!
Please help me Andrew. You're the only one who can.
