So, you all want to know about a game which reflects life? How about...
"The Sims!" I remember creating a single male character who could not keep
his place clean, would get terribly lonely; yet strike out with women in
the neighborhood when he sought companionship, and got so depressed he
failed in his work. In the end he just refused to do anything and was
horribly miserable and alone. Now, you can't get more realistic than that!! ;)

P.S. I am finally beginning to lose my resemblance to the character I
mentioned above! But, recidivism is always a sad possibility.
