For a lot of us, all we want to do when we come home from a hard day of work is sit down, grab a beer, and play some games. The interesting thing I’ve found in talking to other Destructoid writers, though, is that we all do it differently: some people like calm puzzle games or story-heavy RPGs; I prefer blowing people away inTeam Fortress 2. Your topic this week is to tell me about how you use games to relax and unwind. You can write a general blog about relaxing games as a whole, or focus on a specific title or genre.
