The week consisting of Valentine\u2019s day brought MyGaming to the conclusion that we needed to acknowledge the greatest romances in gaming<\/a>, appreciate the heroines of 2013<\/a> and look at who has the cheapest PC games in SA<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But it wasn\u2019t all love, as Aliens: Colonial Marines emerged to be tragically underwhelming<\/a>, with a lot of questions raised about Gearbox\u2019s involvement in the game<\/a>.<\/p>\n
