VIOLENT VIDEO GAMES SPARK SPICY LOVE AFFAIRS

VIOLENT VIDEO GAMES SPARK SPICY LOVE AFFAIRS

NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) -- Forget online chat rooms -- the best place to make an internet love connection is to play violent video games. That's according to 24-year-old Aracelis Batista, who says she and her friends met their fiancees online while playing the shoot-em-up video game "Quake II." Batista claims the violent video game has actually helped her relationship with her hubby-to-be. For instance, whenever they have a disagreement, they duke it out by playing the game and then discuss the problem rationally after getting all their aggression out. Although the couple is considering having a ""Quake II- "themed" wedding, it may have to wait because Batista is one of the finalists in "Female Frag Fest '99," an all-women video game contest that will take place in New York this Thursday (Sept. 9).
