Over the weekend, a friend of Kotaku’s got married. In typical gamer style, there was a subtle videogame theme to the special day. Can you spot it?
It was the wedding of Hyper magazine deputy editor Darren Wells. There was a mushroom kingdom cake, question block goodie bags, toadstool candy and, er… Rock Band. They played “Still Alive” for their bride and groom’s first jam.
Darren and his lovely wife Amanda are now enjoying their honeymoon at the Black Mesa facility.

I bet the wife’s gonna look back on that one and cry for years. Horrible, awful, repetitive song.
