James Silva, friend of 1UP and creator of such XBLA hits has Dishwasher: Vampire Smile and I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES 1NIT!!!1 just had one of the one of the coolest marriage proposals ever. He and his girlfriend Michelle were showing off his new game Charlie Murder at the show, and unbeknownst to her, he actually programmed a special hack into the demo -- a marriage proposal. As a crowd of friends in on the surprise began to gather, he asked her to come over and see something in the game. She covered her mouth in surprise as the proposal scene happened in the game, and then he dropped to one knee and popped the question to her personally.

As you can only imagine, she said yes.

The crowd erupted in applause, and a few moments later PAX officials announced the news over the convention hall's PA system.

Congratulations to James and Heather. We love you guys, and couldn't be more happy for you.

One of the best moments in life, captured in that photo.  Congrats to him and his wife-to-be.

Awwwwwww.

Things like this are cute.  Although they sometimes make me wonder what the hell I'm doing with my life.
Suck it, Pugnate.

No worries, they'll be divorced before the next development cycle is over.

EDIT - Okay, apparently I'm now cynical enough to make even myself sad.
