What are your games to vent off anger?

Post Reply New Topic

The Hunt mode of the Naboo level in Star Wars Battle Front 2. It's a battle between fully equipped super battle droids and Gungans that only carry grenades. Take a guess which side I always join

At the risk of sounding like a total freak, I burn off the anger playing that highly controversial game called hatred. Previously I use to play the old republic as my sith characters and embrace to dark side.

Such an amazing game. On all fronts. And yes the stalking/killing was quite satisfying. I personally loved sneaking up on and beating the sh!t out of things, ending with the wall skull smash. Good times. Stealth stalking games are awesome for this.

Never heard of it. I assume it's a PC game? I gotta look that up.

Ah. That DOES sound fun... Too bad Im not a PC guy or Id be all over that. Part takes place in NJ too...

I happen to love the Borderlands games. Fast pace, tons of ammo to blow off and tons of stuff to skill. The comic book aesthetic adds to the fun.

I've always liked stalking games too. Patiently waiting to strike, carefully planning attacks and when you carry them out successfully is very satisfying. My all time favorite there was Tenchu: Stealth Assassins- was either PS1 or PS2.

Yep, a PC game about in the vein of a 80s murder romp that goes around mass killing neighborhoods of people and cops. It's really dark, and not unfairly has been called a psycho murderer simulator.

Better to do it in a game and not real life I say, it's on steam.

@_@ my god. I like playing GTA and using the jet's autocannon to blow up cars on the highway. Also, WM1 Pyro on TF2(hate me, I don't care ).

In the GameCube one, if you kept making them angry, eventually they would leave town. I don't know if that still works in New Leaf, I haven't tried it.

I also used to mail them garbage, but they were always pretty excited about it =(

I've never seen that hammer before.



Too bad you don't have a PC, you might like the first two Thief games.

I'm the same. I use Smash Bros. to calm down sometimes, but most of the time I either play Rune Factory 4 or my Final Fantasy rhythm game when i'm super angry. Weirdly enough, playing a calming, relaxing game helps me more than playing a fighting game.

Beat 'em ups.
Double Dragon. Mortal Kombat. Killer Instinct.
Racing games that allow me to attack my opponents, or topple them as one could do in Excite Bike.

I've noticed the same. Playing fighting games makes me hold on to the anger, while playing a favorite game like Pokemon makes me focus on the gameplay and relaxing games makes me calmer.

Postal 2 is great for venting off steam. You can be such a cruel bastard on that game. The Carmageddon series is great for this too. Strangely, I've never gotten much into GTA, even though it's sort of in the same vein.

mail them literal garbage? or just some items you found in the junk yard?
i haven't played animal crossing in a long time. i don't remember if there was a literal garbage item.

i remember when i was playing it there was this one citizen i really hated. i would always send him rude letters, wack him on the head constantly whenever i saw him, and bury pitfalls in front of his house. he seemed to like all the abuse. he would just not move away. he was like this masochist octopus.

There was literal garbage in them in them. When fishing you would sometimes catch boots, tires or empty cans.

I have also sent rude letters occasionally in Animal Crossing, telling them to move and so on, and calling Tom Nook unreasonable and greedy lol.

You can mail garbage to people--i mean animals--animal people in Animal Crossing? Um...well, in Rune Factory you can pick up birds and throw them at the townspeople [I've never tried that and I don't think I ever will. I have picked up a bird once just to see how funny my female character looked carrying a bird above her head, but then I put it back down gently]. I'm normally as kind in video games as I am in real life [unless I play Smash ]

Fishing garbage (can, boot, tire), rotten fruit, turnips, etc. Basically anything that you can't sell.



Write them a mean letter, and attach a garbage item as a gift.
