Future Publishing, the UK's largest games media group has found a new channel through to its dedicated audience of gamers: dating.
Yes, now YOU can find love with that special someone who shares your love of obscure text adventures and who also finished Leisure Suit Larry.
We'd imagine.
A brief search indicates nothing in the way of platform preference or abhorrence of specific genres, which should be a must for any serious dating site aimed at gamers.
Indeed going through the first few pages, we were asked about eye colour (red) and hair (bald), but nothing at all about Horde/Alliance affiliation or whether we were DS or PSP freaks. In fact, having signed up, we couldn't see *anything* about games at all.
Not a single pale, emo-type chick with claws from playing Fallout III non-stop since late last year.
We'd be inclined to think it's nothing more than a cheap rip-off, if we didn't know that Future have your best interests at heart...
