Games that make you just relax, and feel good

[SimuLord]

The Sims series, plus slower-paced builder games like SimCity 4 where at any point you can just watch your city go about its business without being forced by the game to do anything else.

 

[blackfrancis567]

All games really but if I had to choose I would say Saints Row 2

 

[DJDarque]

Definitely Flower off the Playstation network.

It's so amazingly tranquil, and very soon to be officialy released. You can still download v1.20 from their website.

 

[McHanhan]

Easy, it was a game on Steam called: Osmos. Amazingly relaxing music, brilliantly appeasing visuals and a relaxing physics based gameplay mechanic. Ahhh..all the woes are going away.

 

[Strategia]

GTA: Vice City, cruising down the highway blasting 80s music (Flash FM FTW). Or San Andreas, flying around in a Hydra listening to classic rock. Just so very relaxing.

 

[FROGGEman2]

Flower and flOw do it for me.

Actually, anything that TGC cook up is good like this.

 

[Valiance]

Auditorium.

What?

 

[Sketchy]

Skate, if I'm just cruising and not worrying about missions or anything.

 

[CrysisMcGee]

Oblivion works for me sometimes

 

[Proteus214]

Peggle is a great de-stresser for me.

 

[Rossmallo]

Runescape. It's surprisingly nice to find a place where people are doing something that doesn't need a lot of attention and strike up stimulative conversation while doing something productive at the same time.

 

[Gutterslime]

any mario or pre-majora's mask zelda game, really any good SNES title, Castle Crashers, WoW, games where the main theme is relax and kill pretty much

 

[Cowabungaa]

Team Fortress 2. There is something soothing about having a great headshot streak as a sniper.

And I really should look into Fl0w and Flower, that's getting a lot of credit for being relaxing.

 

[Maeshone]

I can't really say why, bit Mirror's Edge has a very relaxing effect on me... The soundtrack, the city, and Faith, create an experience that can be quite soothing.

 

[Kajt]

Team Fortress 2 and Call of Duty 4 make me relax.

I've played them so much that they've gotten easy.

 

[Distorted Stu]

Skate 2, something hypnotic about it. Funny and relaxing.

 

[Brisingr]

osmos its really relaxing. Well for me anyway
