What game helped you the most during stress?

I wasn't in a good mood yesterday. I was wanting to know what game has helped you the most to ease down your anger, mood, stress, problems, or prevented you beating the someone to the white meat? I think the game that helped me the most on that is Oblivion. It's just the music the settings, the free roaming. I just like to walk around or be in towns and steel or maybe become the Grey Fox and kill up guards then act like nothing happened. I actually lost a powerful weapon because I FORGOT that the guards attack knocks weapons out of your hands. I had to search a whole town like Inspector Gadget and I found my sword about 33 minutes later.
So what do you guys play to help you calm down?

Postal or Postal 2.
Well first off the one that stressed me most was Silk Road, but there was only one that helped my stress every time and that was Face Of Man Kind, I could go in on fire and with in secs friends would calm me and we would have a blast even though i spent most of my time dead

I tend to go to forums when I'm stressed, or play the game I'm currently playing at that time.
I tend to go craft on LOTRO when I need to let off some steam. Nothing seems to unwind me like gossiping with some friends in Bree
Guitar Hero 2. I used to play it 30 minutes a night before going to bed just to chill out and relax. I also sometimes enjoy some CoD4 Multiplayer but it is a double-edged sword. Sometimes I rock and am god-like through an entire session, other times I suck terribly and just end up working myself up into a controller shaking, profanity spewing, pissed off gamer.
Hah, for me GH is what I play to get OVER the CoD4 multiplayer frustration. I don't know what it's like on Live! but the cheating on PC can really get a person down. Guitar Hero is so soothing when you hit those hammer ons and pull offs and you can just zone out and let your fingers make magic
Well if I'm not playing a game, and my anger usually releases in arguements, soo
..I go to the forums, particularly darkfall's

Stress = S3
The whale song noises in Homeworld and the general slow pace of the game is something I find particularly soothing, but then I don't play games when I am stressed, I have to resolve my problems before I can relax.
If I get stressed and have to play a game to calm down it would definitely be Animal Crossing Wild World.
Absolutely no stress, walk around town, talk to some animals, do some fishing, dig some holes. Maybe listen to the crickets chirp or get on wifi with a friend. It's just a relaxing game.
Battlefield 2 - works like a charm.
GTA III. Nothing like a mass of hit and runs to make you feel better.
