De-Stress With Gaming: Far Cry 3 is Amazon’s Gold Box Deal of the Day Today! #FarCryGold
Stress.
It’s a killer they say.
When I’m feeling stressed out and can get time away from the kiddies. Hubby and I love to bust out the Rated M games and play. Nothing like being a super hero or a survivor with your best friend. Killing zombies, opposing foe, robots–you name it, to relieve some stress.
There are many ways I like to unwind after a long day at work or a hectic day at home. Some of the ways are drinking a nice cup of java and reading a good book on my e-reader or what lady doesn’t love spa days?
But, what some of you may not know, I used to be a pretty hard core gamer. I may have toned it down since I became a mom or I play games that I can play with my daughters. But, when I can, I love to bust out those Rated M and shoot stuff, it definitely is fun to get away into another world where you’re in control! Nothing like head shots to blow the stress away!
Guess what?
Far Cry 3 is Amazon’s Gold Box Deal of the Day TODAY!
Not familiar with Far Cry 3?
Far Cry 3 is set on a tropical island somewhere in the vicinity of the Malay Archipelago, between the Indian and Pacific Oceans. After a vacation goes awry, protagonist Jason Brody must save his friends, who have been kidnapped by pirates and escape from the island and its unhinged inhabitants.
Far Cry 3 is an open world, first person game. It’s the sequel to Far Cry 2 that came out in 2008. So, if you like first-shooter games and RPG’s–this is one you will definitely enjoy! You will have the ability to take cover behind objects to break enemies’ lines of sight and also to peek around and over cover and blindfire. You will be able to perform silent “takedowns” by performing melee attacks from above, below, or close behind.

My recent post A Big Shout Out: Thanking my Mentor Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)
I am not a gamer….I used to love to play, but I stuck to Mario games!
I'm not a big gamer unless you count Pac Man and Super Mario…lol My favourite way to relax is reading, watching a movie, glass of wine and a long chat with someone you love and of course, as you mentioned you cannot beat the spa for major de-stressing!

i used to play this game thanks
to be honest, I like far cry 2 better. maybe if somebody could mod in outposts that re-spawn enemies or something. it does tend to feel empty after awhile.
Sounds like a nice one i only ever played the first Mario year ago
