Somehow I thought this thread was going to be about Proto Man.

There have been times where I would go for a little while without wanting to play games, but it doesn't usually last long. After a few days I'd find something to play, or a friend would come over and we'd get into something. I probably have to wait until I get a little older before that starts becoming a regular occurance, but I'll treasure my waning youth.

Gaming definitely helps to vent and can change my state of mind.
