Viva Pinata marks its first wedding proposal

You'd think people would use it to break up/divorce than marry. Especially with the smashing and all.

Awwwwwww...

At http://classicnesseries.com/ in the "Game Stories" section, the excitebike story marks a proposal even better than this one.

WSVG announced dead mere hours ago and already we're dragging its corpse through the mud? Well played, McElroy.

How pathetic is that?? This is what it should read...

"Honey, you know I am a man that plays a very childish game, and that I obviously am a loser, so why not be a loser with me?"

Wow...the gayness has reached a whole new level.

wow, i didnt know anyone was still playing this game

or even playing it at all

Wow! Tough crowd. I think Rare games represent quality. (For the most part.) Even Pinata ones. And even though the game itself was more specifically marketed to kids, the gameplay was actually enjoyed by quite a few adults. Myself included. I don't see anything wrong with this.

I thought it was stupid at first, then I read the whole post.

"When she got it (Across the room on the other TV) she giggled and said i was silly. Then i pulled out the real deal, got on a knee and started getting cried upon. She said yes, so next spring we are getting married! Just wanted to shared."

Man I love Viva Pinata, and I'm not even a little kid. That game is ADDICTING, so I stopped playing it.

I thought this was cute until I realized that they were both playing in the same room on different TVs. Now I'm just sitting here, shaking my head.

Well, at least it's not as ghey as WoWeddings...

Maybe they will dance and babies will come out.

Ha! Ha! Ha! Marriage by crate.

rare community manager george kelion must be gay...

Is there anyone who has a gf that wouldn't kill you for proposing in such a weak manner? Through a game? My gf loves games, and VP in particular, but she would cut my throat if I used this method.

Well let me be the first to do this on Joystiq! Justin... will you gay marry me!?!

I created a series of WoW in-game quests that led up to my wife driving over to my apartment to have me translate a message (which was "will you marry me?" when seen by an alliance talking to a horde).

To top it off, at the wedding my grooms cake was in the shape of a computer. On the "monitor" of the computer cake was an edible print out of the horde banner.

We're still married and we both still play WoW :).

1st off, i would like to say that, I , am indeed the guy whom you are all talking about. Secondly, thank you everyone for your support.

...and for the 27 year old virgins still living in mommies basement, feel free to keep you 1/2 @ssed comments to yourself.

For those people caught up on there being TWO 360s in the family room, Viva pinata is a multiplayer game, but you cannot have more than 1 person per 360. SO! if you want to play V.P. with a friend or loved one, a LAN setup is how you have to go. If playing videogames in the same room with people is such a BAD THING... Then why the hell do they make the 360 work with 4 controllers?

For those who think VP is dead... or only for kids.. tell that to the thousands of adult members @ pinataisland.info

Jenn (poetic Sunrise) LOVES viva. She also LOVES uniqueness and originality. What better way to please her than to Propose to her in a way no one else ever has before? Again thanks for your support.
