Welcome to another addition of our Fun Friday series where we take a look at funny and cool things in the video game industry we’ve stumbled across during the past week while we work. Since Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, that corner being tomorrow, we figured a couple of Valentine’s Day related items might be a good idea. So, as always, sit back, relax and enjoy.
Speed Dating Gamer Edition
Curse Entertainment decided to do their take on speed dating in a new video to celebrate Valentine’s Day. The video, called Speed with Gamers, takes you on a journey through a night of speed dating which is layered thick with gaming life. When the two meet, it is both funny, possibly awkward, and full of geeky video game goodness.

Minecraft Valentine’s Day Box
Over on Facebook we saw a creative young kid who is a big fan of Minecraft taking the whole Valentine’s Day thing and combining it with his love of the Minecraft game. He hand crafted his very own Minecraft-themed box which was used to receive Valentines cards from classmates and friends. Pretty cool.
Heroes of the Storm Love Bug
Blizzard loves doing themed events based on holidays. Whether it be in World of Warcraft, Starcraft, or any of the company’s other titles, they just love to do this sort of thing. World of Warcraft always has themed events going on and now it seems the tradition is moving to the company’s new MOBA Heroes of the Storm which is currently in open beta.
For a limited time, Heroes of the Storm players will be able to purchase the “Love is in the Air” bundle from within the game’s shop. The bundle includes Anub’arak, and a special Love Bug skin. When you apply the skin, it will make Anub’arak look like a lady bug. To promote this new bundle, Blizzard has launched a very special video that tell of a love story between Zagara and Anub’arak.
