Well I suppose the story is right now actually.

My girlfriend of seven months decided to break up with me for reasons hard to understand, but I guess they were valid. But hey, I'm not gonna get into all that on a gamespot forum, thats for LJ and Xanga and those crappy places. This is about video games helping or hurting you when you're trying to cope with a break up. So lets list some good ones and bad ones for the average gamer:

Bad:
Halo2

Why?
Because if you're a sore loser when you get rocket noobed 600 times in the same round because some idiot can't learn how to correctly noob kill you with the dual smg you get pissed because you were unable to get up close and noob him with a one-hit kill shotgun blast. Then, when you finally do, someone noobs you with the sword from behind instantly killing you, because you weren't looking at your radar, cause some other ******* just noobed you with the plasma pistol and you're all like "AHHHHHH".

Then you throw your controller and it breaks.

Also Bad:
Any RPG Like Wild Arms 3

Why?
The slow pace, though filled with an interesting story, will give you plenty of time to think of that lost love, and it doesn't help when a boring, easy to kill, "set your characters on auto battle", random challenge appears on the world map, because you've been "searching" for the temple you're supposed to get into for the last hour and a half and you still can't find it, mean while the enemies are too weak to have any impact on leveling up your characters. Did I mention its the same 2 tunes for an hour and a half as well? Sure they're good, but the problem is YOU CAN'T GET OVER THE TUNES AND AHHH TRRAGG HEGEHRTTR! #$T%#$$ #$ $#$ !

Also Bad:
CounterStrike- Source or Other

Why?
I think this one is probably self explanitory. If you're really not that great at counterstrike, you're gonna get stomped with the huge amount of 1334 players in the game. And though you try last resorting to a shotty or auto sniper, you're still screwed, cause you've been playing for 2 years, and everyone else has been playing for 6! Then you get a phone call, thinking its your ex-girlfriend, going to beg to have you back and pull you out of this hell of getting smacked like a biatch. Turns out its your mom's boyfriend who wants to kill you, and you don't have that Deagle handy...

At the moment I can't really think about any "GOOD" games that could help you forget. Though I would recommend if you're good at it, Devil May Cry...but for me there is one slight problem: Though that game would make me feel better because I get to whip ass with cool moves, its also one of the games that ties me to her and in doing so I can't forget! CURSES!

Oh well, more to come later. I hope people read this, and maybe post comments.
