1UP EIC Proposes With The Help of Final Fantasy Creators
Anyone who works with 1UP/EGM Editor-in-Chief James Mielke knows that the guy is pretty darn immersed in his job -- he works as hard as he can to keep creating the coolest content that you see in the mag and on our sites. The past few weeks he was a bit distracted, though. Why? Because he was putting together the final preparations for his proposal to his awesome girlfriend (and now awesome fiance -- she said yes!) Joy. It's something he'd been planning for over a year (I remember when he first told me that he was going to do it), but he had been making all the preparations the past few months. So what did he do to make the event extra special? He called upon two of the creators of the Final Fantasy series -- composer Nobuo Uematsu and artist/designer Yoshitaka Amano -- to help him out. Amano designed the ring for him and Uematsu composed a melody that played as he proposed. For James and Joy -- two members of the videogame industry, both big fans of the Final Fantasy series -- this was perfectly fitting and definitely a proposal in a league of its own. (Never mind that it was her birthday and he took her to Paris).

Here's the video, including Uematsu playing the original melody for the first time on his piano (he titled the song "The Milky Way").
