My little brother recently started doing some anger management therapy, and Video Games really soothe him and keep him calm.
One of his favorite games is Runescape, so I started playing it again so that I could bond with him a little more and build a better relationship with him~

I'm using an old account from forever ago, picked up a membership, and got back into it (I'm actually kind of enjoying it)
I've been doing some powerfishing (basically I just watch tv, glance over and drop fish when my inv fills up. It's really easy to now with the Hotkey option they implemented.)
And I did some Dragon Slaying~
Probably gonna level up my slayer next, and maybe do some PKing with my little brother.
I normally keep the laptop next to him and pull up a chair and just talk while we play.

Sorry if I kind of made it a blog post, but I feel like I accomplished gaming and bonding today ^.^

I'm the same way with games. I don't have anger issues, but I struggle a lot with stress and anxiety, and video games definitely help keep me in check.

Beat Pokemon Emerald, after porting my Pokemon (all the ones I caught) into Heart gold then used Pokesav to migrate them into Platinum since I am playing them in generation order. I would have ported my Leafy Green Stuff but alas its a pirate and doesn't work with HG

Emerald was kinda "meh" to me a few cool bits but otherwise :/ Just started platinum now

I beat Tomb Raider (2013) earlier this evening. The game is flat out incredible, and the best current-gen game that I've played in a long, long time.
Seriously, that ending was badass. Especially the part in the finale when Lara pulls out the double pistols, just like classic Lara Croft in the older games. Seriously, I didn't even care for the older games, and it still blew me away. Easily one of the most awesome finales I've seen in a while, even if the final battle wasn't much more than a series of cinematic quicktime events (since there was a "classic" final boss type deal right before it, that didn't bother me).

I just beat Nyna with Donnel (lvl 3)...with a minature lance.

For those who don't know Fire Emblem Awakening,Nyna is part of a bonus team.For her stat:http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Nyna
Donnel is the weakest unit (aside his luck) at low level.At lvl 3,mine have:6 str,4 skill,4 speed,13 lck,0 res.With the minature lance (MT 1),he does 7 dmg-ennemy def.

So i was in battle,i lowered her health with "MyUnit" (Raistlin,if anyone were wondering) and Miriel.I thought Donnel was safe,but i miscalculated (like always).I was prepared to soft reset,then Nyna miss her attack.I was like:"Ok,he survive here,but he will not for long...".But then,he put a critical hit with the minature lance,doing 15 dmg and killing her.He upped a whole lvl (from lvl 3 xp 98 to lvl 4 xp 98).Then i thought he will be killed by the 2 archer,but Stahl protected him from 1 archer,saving him from death.The luckiest unit indeed.

Since I finished off 3 of the biggest games in my backlog recently (Metroid Prime 2, Tomb Raider, and Sonic 06), I rewarded myself by finally tearing open my sealed copy of Bioshock Infinite. I played for about 2 and a half hours
up until the point where you help Elizabeth escape her tower prison
. I'm doing it on hard mode with the PS Move controls, and I absolutely love it so far.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Nah the air can do that
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Ask @x65943 he's trained for that stuff
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Kissing random dudes choking in celery? Really? Need to study for that?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Yes it requires a degree
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    If I die, tell my momma I won't be carrying Baby Jesus this christmas :sad::cry:
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Smear campaigns are in The political section now?
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:

  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Sweet found my Wii u PSU right after I ordered a new one :tpi:
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It literally turns it on.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Yeah power supplies are filthy perverts
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    @Psionic Roshambo has a new friend
