Lets face it.....sometimes playing games can be more than stressful.
1. When you're playing a game, you're doing really well, and then some stupid idiot comes a long a spoils it for you by killing you (in the game) or destroys a key item.
2. Again, you're doing really well, but you just can't get past a certain bit and you start shouting and hitting yourself.
3. When a game can just be too hard, you never see the light of day again.
4. When you're playing a button bashing game (hrrmmm...Mario Party comes to mind) you're finger starts to crack and bleed, making it seriously painfall (not a rare occurance for me).
5. When a friend beats at a game (probably the worst)
Does this mean gaming could scar you for life, or maybe it just scars you damaged console.

Regarding The pain of gaming, well...my fingers hurt a lot.
Why? Well that's because I have been playing Devil May Cry all evening. Just the simple combos of swords and ammo can be fustrating. Not boring, don't get me wrong. It's merely because I try so hard to make the best looking manoeuvre look so good, that I had so much trouble whilst performing them. At the end, I finally got the hang of it, and as for The pain of gaming...IT HURTS!

Tell me about it dude...The Bouncer had such long cut-scenes that it kept me itching to smash my PS2 into little pieces.
