Politically Incorrect Games for the Heartbroken

Ok so it’s Valentines Day and you don’t have a Valentine. Or let’s say your precious little (insert endearing term here) broke your heart into a thousand pieces, left you with nothing but a “Let’s just be friends” spiel. Now everywhere you glance, it’s VALENTINE’S DAY rubbed into your face. You’re hurting real bad, but you don’t want to do anything stupid, you know, because there are laws to be followed here.

STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD

To mellow out some of the hate within you should just hit the gym or a punching bag multiple times but if you’re too lazy to indulge in some physical activity, here are a few games that may quell the beast within.

Burnout Revenge

![](http://tech.firstpost.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/feb/img_119372_revenge_640x360.jpg)

This game right here is the BEST racing game ever made. It doesn’t take itself too seriously which means there’re no slow turns or watching your speed or any of that sim crap. Floor the gas and just take everything down. Traffic in your path? Mow through it? Can’t out drive your opponents? Take them down and make them burn. Nothing’s quite as liberating and satisfying as ramming your car into your opponents and watching him fly straight into oncoming traffic only to erupt in a gigantic ball of flames. Revenge never felt this good.

Postal 2
**

![](http://tech.firstpost.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/feb/img_119362_postal_640x360.jpg)

Yes I know this isn’t Game of the Year material but it does allow you to kill innocent bystanders (both male and female) in creative and entertaining ways, proving to be a valuable stress buster. Lop his/her head off with a shovel and then indulge in a game of catch with your dog or deliver a nice shock, courtesy of a Police Taser, or impale them with scissors (yes scissors) burn them alive only to pee on their burning bodies or just go the old fashioned way and shoot the crap out of them with a plethora of weapons. It’s senseless but at least it’ll entertain you for a couple of hours.

**God of War II
**

![](http://tech.firstpost.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/feb/img_119332_godofwar_640x360.jpg)

The ultimate guy game, God of War II put players in the boots of Kratos, a very angry and unpleasant God who loves inflicting pain on every aspect of Greek mythology be it Male, Female or God. One of the enemies you encounter in this game are Medusa clones of sorts and Kratos disposes them off by stabbing them in the umm chest… multiple times. If that doesn’t calm the bloodlust, there’s always head ripping, eye stabbing or torso tearing.

Grand Theft Auto IV

![](http://tech.firstpost.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/feb/img_119342_gta4_640x360.jpg)

Besides the fact that you can pretty much do whatever your heart desires, Grand Theft Auto IV allows you to go on dates with multiple women (don’t worry; no one’s judging). Take them out to eat fast food, take them out to a Comedy Club or just indulge in some activities like darts, bowling etc after which you can go up to their place for some “Hot Coffee” (if you play your cards right i.e.). If that doesn’t work for ya, strap yourself with some heavy artillery and roam around the most awesome virtual rendition of New York till date and indulge in some wanton mayhem and havoc.

Mortal Kombat 2

![](http://tech.firstpost.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/feb/img_119352_mk2_640x360.jpg)

There’s nothing like a healthy doze of Mortal Kombat 2 to fuel that pent up rage, and help expunge it onto one of the female avatars of the game. You could do everything from rip out your facial mask (as Scorpion) and spew flames onto your enemy (Toastie!) until they’re reduced to ashes, or rip the head of your enemy along with her spinal cord. If picturing yourself doing that to the alleged heart-breaker doesn’t help, then you my friend are in need of therapy.

Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now. see more
