I'm looking for cheesy, over the top mindless and fun games.... like Just Cause 2 and Darkness 2.

Suggestions? They'd need to be the type of game i can just play to destress for maybe an hour a week.

I call you out on that one.

I've got guildmates who prove you can't be brainless. Seriously, how does a Holy Priest die to the Nuclear Blast on Spine 3 attempts in a row?

Prototype is good, mindless fun. Turn on armor mode and start chucking cars around. Grab a helicopter and panic some civilians, then target one and follow him around.

Haven't tried the sequel yet because the PC release was delayed.

Team Fortress 2, if you want multiplayer, is often a good way to spend some time.

The assassin's creed games are fun to dick around in; murdering guards by the dozens never gets old for me.

Kingdoms of Amalur was pretty decent, if Skyrim and Fable had a bastard love-child. Expect to run all around everywhere, but be a complete badass in the combat system by the end of the game. Finesse with daggers had the most OP combos, fo srs.

Realm of the Mad God is a F2P, top down 8-bit graphics shooter with some depth. Good for an afternoon of shooting pixels at other pixels.

Tribes: Ascend is also kinda mindless if you fuck around with the default classes and don't care about dying a lot.

CNH is one big clusterfuck and all anybody ever does is roll jugg and mortar spam.

CTF is the same old fun though.

Daggers with Chakrams as backup. There's OP and then there's OP at range.

Chakrams? The longbow was just as OP. Point blank charged shot into a troll = dead troll. :3

The only good thing for a bow, IMO was "ohai, let me air juggle you 3 miles away"

Chakrams allowed me to fuckup people in a 360 around me. Since I had Poison, Fire, Lightning, Ice and Bleed damage available on my attacks... Yeah it was a little messy.

Saints Row 3. I haven't played it myself but I've been in here when Deth has and it's a hilarious game.

inFamous is good, mindless fun, too.

Oh, and Darksiders

If you like driving games, Dirt was pretty fun. I think there's a new one out, too.

Binding of Isaac
Tribes: Ascend (Maybe this isn't a good idea for de-stressing though. Getting put on a team that does nothing but run out into midfield and get wiped out is rather rage inducing.)
Diablo 3 when it comes out in a couple of days.

This is the dumbest game I've ever bought off steam, apart from Dear Esther.

At first it's a cute and sacrilarious little zelda clone, until you realize that it's all completely randomly generated, some puzzles have no solutions, and every map is basically exactly the same forever.

It's the sort of thing that you'd play for free on Newgrounds back in 2005.
