Video game couples: the break-up notes
-
Ouch...
After last week's Week of Love here on GamesRadar, we thought we'd briefly visit the flip-side. The course of true love never did run smooth, but sometimes you just have to accept the painful reality that some things don't last forever. Sniff.
So here are some break-up notes I personally wrested from the clutches of some sobbing game heroes. Don't worry, it's probably nothing some chocolates and a poem can't fix. And no, that's not going to be the next feature! Week of Love is officially OVER! As are these couples...
-
Peach is breaking up with Mario (in Super Mario 64)
-
Pikachu is breaking up with Ash (in Pokémon)
-
Amy's breaking up with Sonic (in Sonic the Hedgehog)
...Although he would argue they were never going out.
-
Kairi is breaking up with Sora (in Kingdom Hearts)
-
Ico is breaking up with Yorda (in Ico)
-
Reese is breaking up with Cyrus (in Animal Crossing)
-
Nick is breaking up with Juliet (in Lollipop Chainsaw)
-
Daisy is breaking up with Dizzy (in Fantasy World Dizzy)
(Ugh, my childhood... say it ain't so, Daisy! Say it ain't so!)
-
Elena is breaking up with Nathan Drake (in Uncharted)
-
Ms Pac-Man is breaking up with Pac-Man (in Pac-Man)
-
Claris is breaking up with Elliot (in NiGHTS into Dreams)
-
It's over... no, really, that's the end of the feature.
Aww, c'mon, don't feel down! I know it wasn't the happiest of features (and I know at least one person who will be sad in the comments) but it's all fun and games. And if it's meant to be, they'll get back together, right? IIRC...

Kairi seeing Goofy? That mental image... I hate you mr Towell. There are some things you can't unsee/unremember. -

I guess my Kingdom Hearts fanaticism really gets stirred when I read that one from Kairi.... it kind of breaks my heart. It makes me mad. Angry! Noooooooooooooooooooooo!! Anyways, the Amy one was gold. And I wonder if Ms. Pac Man will go back to using her maiden name now.... and I wonder what her maiden name is? -

I know what you mean about Kingdom Hearts, but it was the Dizzy one that hurt most to make. As for Ms Pac-Man... um... Sybil? She looks like a Sybil, I say. -

Pretty sure Ms Pac-man is taking the kids with her. How could she go on living with a drug addict who ignores a very serious poltergeist problem. -

Absolutely. I mean, he at least sets a good example by eating fruit, but the damage has been done, really. -
