After playing a "violent" game, do you feel any different? Satisfied, destructive, frustrated, etc.
If I did a good job and had fun, I feel satisfied. I do with any game I play.

Have you ever gotten frustrated at a game to the point where you felt you had to vent in some way? Explain what you did and what made you angry. If you have never done this, do you know a friend or sibling who has? Explain the situation.
I usually stop playing before I reach this point. I can tell when I'm just having a bad day with a game, and would rather stop playing it then get mad at it. I don't know anyone personally who has done that either.
