We all have days when are mentally exhausted and just need a break? People do many different things to relax and bring down their stress level like listening to music, taking a bubble bath, aroma therapy or playing video games just to name a few. I love to play video games by myself and with my family as a way to relax and have fun. When I am playing a video game it gets my complete attention and I am focused on my mission and that is WINNING! I have tons of fun and am completely in the moment when playing. Whether I’m playing by myself or a “friendly” competition with my family we are all in game mode. I know that my husband plays video games regularly to relax when he gets home from work to unwind. There are so many different video game varieties to choose from that are fun ways to relax when you need a mental vacation.

Today Far Cry 3 is Amazon’s Gold Box Deal of the Day! Far Cry 3 has a mature rating. Here is a quick overview from Ubisoft: Beyond the reach of civilization lies a lawless island ruled by violence. This is where you find yourself stranded, caught in a bloody conflict between psychotic warlords and indigenous rebels. Encounter a disturbed and memorable cast of characters as you take a gritty journey to the dark side of humanity. Unravel a deep and emotional story of survival, written by a Writers Guild Award winner. The scenery and graphics in this game is amazing with the exotic animals, being on an island, and being able to travel by land, sea, or air. There are also mini games within the game allowing you to earn money in the game by playing poker, racing cars, completing shooting challenges and throwing knives.
