Hunting Your Loved Ones

Playing Halo with the one you love is deeply theraputic.

One two-hour session of 10-kill, multi-weapon, head-to-head combat is equal to three and a half months of intensive couples therapy with an obese psychologist who takes Freud seriously and hasn't touched a girl since he was sixteen. If they could market couples therapy that was something along the lines of you and your partner are dropped into the forest at midnight with paintball guns and the object is to hunt and "kill" each other... well, then... that'd be money in the bank.

Anyway, that's all I got. Word of advice: Don't use the sniper rifle in heavily enclosed areas; it's for precision, not melee. Also, when you find that your partner is better than you at Halo, don't get pouty and throw the controller at their head. Just smile, accept defeat and cut their hamstrings while they sleep.

Or something less violent. I don't know. I've been playing a lot of Halo recently.
