(Did a quick search and didn't see anything.)
Just thought this was cool. First time I've heard of an in-game proposal outside of WoW.

Is "cool" a synonym for "embarrassing"?

I guess "cool" was a poor choice.
"Neat" is better?

I showed my girlfriend this, and she said she would kill me if I did something that lame and unromantic.
And she is a gamer.

"We're waiting to see what the release date is for the next Halo game. We don't want any conflicts."
That's funny.

How the fuck is it fail if the gamer chick said yes?

How the fuck is it fail if the gamer chick said yes?Because it's sooooo uber dorky, don't ya get it? Marriage proposals can only be done in fine Italian restaurants, on Valentine's Day.

That's so lame (and is really the cheap way out of paying for a nice dinner)

Be nice, fellas. According to the link in the OP, she's a copyeditor by day. For that kind of profession, having plain Wonder Bread toast in the morning is an apocalypse of excitement.
'taint no hot-air-balloon-and-wine affair, but let's be real: you won't do that either.

This whole notion of marriage proposals being some movie-like, romantic dinner event is just stupid. These 2 people obviously share a common interest that they both love, so why not incorporate it somehow? And I can imagine a lot of people wouldn't like one of the biggest events of their life taking place in a crowded restaurant, around a bunch of strangers. I know that personally, if my eventual woman asked ME to marry her, I wouldn't want it to be around a bunch of people, since I would probably say yes, and we would get down to having hot, borderline S&M sex.

*insert Arby's joke here*If my woman surprised me one day by spelling out "Will you Marry Me" in Curly Fries, I would owe my life to her forever.
Ladies of CAG, take note!

Im playing CoD online in one room, my wife is playing WoW in another. I just yelled over to ask her what she thought about this. She laughed.
Whatever floats yer boat, who cares if we think its lame if the couple think its cool?

I guess it's..... creative?.. that's just the worst thing though.... "How did he propose?" will be asked 200 times, and she gets to say he made a map in Halo 3... whereas there will have to be 5 minute discussions each time what Halo 3 is, where the person will leave the conversation thinking they are complete weirdos... if they even grasp what it is after that.

I think it's fine that they proposed over halo 3 if they don't get to see each other in person very often, However...

This is a problem. And five minutes every time? More or less.

Guess this is better than that guy that proposed by just sending a message through Viva Pinata. Now that was lazy.

not that my 2cents matters... but damn is that ridiculous. i wouldnt want to be married to a woman that would say yes over xbox live. i know my girlfriend wouldnt get on halo in the first place, but if i asked her that way shed remove my balls.
Hey, so long as they don't skimp out on the wedding itself!
It was certainly a creative way of proposing.

Still doesn't top the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 proposal, in which a guy made a big ring of rails in a custom park which had 3 gaps that were called, in succession, "will you...... marry....me?"
or something along those lines
