Most angry you have ever been playing a videogame?

Diablo 3. Not angry with the game, but angry with my ISP that constantly crapped on me for 2 months. I really couldn't stay away from the game, but with the enormous PL and disconnects I couldn't really play either.

Well I guess partly D3 since it forced me to be online.

How did I forget this one? I never beat this game. I kept thinking that there must have been a 'bunny hop' mechanic that was never explained or something. I have no idea how you're supposed to progress in some of those hard levels otherwise.

Watching others replays was the only way to complete some of those levels. So much fun, but so much damn frustration lol.
 
This motherfucker made me angrier than ever.

Haha I love this thread. Read the whole thing and gave me some good laughs because I've experienced some of the same things as people here.

For me, personally:

-CS 1.6
So many times have I raged over this game. I played it religiously and some days you are just off and those off days can induce some serious rage. Usually involved just playing like crap and spraying bullets when it should have been an easy kill. Or being first blood way too many times. Many curses were uttered and I punched my table a lot. Somehow it didn't break lol

-Unreal Championship (xbox)
I played this competitively back in the day. Can't really remember but I raged many times. I hated the rocket launcher in that game. Broke 2 headsets and a controller.

-Halo 2
Probably played this game more than any. Played it competitively as well and my clan was in the top 20 for some time. When you are playing like that, the intensity just gets amped up so much. Had one rival clan beat us and they had a couple young assholes who were trash talking us. Ripped my headset off and flung it at the wall. Another time losing a close match I broke another controller. I ended up breaking another 4 headsets playing this game.

I'm a lot different now, when I get mad I usually just curse, then turn the game off. I guess you have to learn to have fun. I'm just extremely competitive and always want to win lol
 
Probably still Ghosts N Goblins NES when I found out I had to go through the game a second time to really beat it (which I eventually did because I was a glutton for punishment back then.)
 
I punched a hole in my old closet after playing against an Arakune in the orignal BlazBlue. It was pretty much the boiling point on what was a pretty rough day. Not proud of it at all.
 
I know somebody that punches walls regularly over video games. I don't think his flatmate keeping him awake by having late night sex sessions is helping his mental health much but I digress.

Playing Morrowing GOTY on an OG Xbox. Went into a cavern to retrieve the Bonebiter Bow for an essential story quest. I'd picked it up earlier just roaming around but had no idea what it was, so I tossed it down. No patching on Xbox, so that bow just stayed gone. 100+ hours lost. I never played it on Xbox again, and I've never had the heart to try to return to it, even on PC. It crushed me.

Heheh I believe if you were to boot that save up, it would still be where you left it.
 
FFXIII. Not angry for long because soon the cold, dull acceptance set in. Once a classic series was now given away to hacks and all areas of it watered down and stomped on. The drop in quality from XII must be one of the biggest in the history of videogames.
 
SF3 Third Strike online back on Xbox. Things would be going real smooth until the 10th percentile of extremely good players got on. I threw my S-pad against a desk. It was bad.

Was around 10. Fucking rainbow road. Threw SNES across room. Calmed down and plugged it back in.

Oh how I remember doing the same so many times....

Also, Football Manager when your team is on a bad run. Premier League Champions one year, losing at Tranmere in the FA Cup the next after a run of four losses... picked up the monitor, wrenched the wires out, and booted it across the room... realised it was stupid, mourned the poor monitor then had to go out and buy another one...

I now keep a stress ball by the computer for cases like this... next to a bin filled with stress balls that have been destroyed.
 
Got the first Darksiders game for free (I think through PS+)

Started playing it and was not really enjoying the mechanics, it seemed so much like a bad god of war clone.

Got past the first tutorial level, and went to some graveyard/timed level where you have to kill x amount of creeps.

After smashing buttons for at least 5 minutes, I ran out of time... I guess I couldn't kill the creeps fast enough?

But what made me rage quit was the 'tool tip' loading screen after I was fighting for 5 minutes straight:

'Press [Triangle] to attack'

Really? Fuck... you...!

Closed the game and deleted it instantly.
 
World of Warcraft PVE. Nothing worse than playing perfectly for an entire night but not killing a boss due to someone else's incompetence. Had to get up and walk away after a wipe many, many times. I tend to be far calmer than I ever was during those days though, at most I'll punch a pillow while laughing and continue on my merry way.
I guess I'll also put SSX in here too. The death pits as well as some of the deadly descent mechanics were rather rage inducing but I usually said "who on the design team thought this was fun?" and turned it off.
 
My first playthrough of Dark Souls versus Ornstein & Smough. I practically play online multiplayer games competitively and exclusively, where anger issues and rage are abundant, but this single player boss fight had me angrier than I have ever been in my whole life of gaming.
 
Battle toads when I was like 12. Runner up O&S Dark Souls. Beat the shit out of Demon's Souls and everything up to there in Dark Souls but had a terrible time trying to beat these guys.
 
Most recently probably shadow of the colossus HD, after I finished it I learned that they missed with the physics system in the HD remaster
 
I must have been 6 years old when I played through Super Soccer on the SNES. After winning the final match you would play against Team Nintendo.
I lost every fucking time. I got so angry, I had tears running down my cheeks.
After what felt like 200 attempts I found a perfect running path where the other team couldn't stop me and shots from a specific point on the field would score 100%.
I cheesed the hell out of that strategy and won 30ish : 0.
I felt like a god afterwards.
 
I noticed recently I curse loudly and clench my fist whenever I miss a kill by a sliver of health in Dota 2. I rarely if ever stay commited in a competitive online multiplayer game so this realization hit me hard. I never wanted to be that kind of gamer stereotype.
 
Definitely SOCOM 2. I was in a clan that took the game very seriously (while I really didn't but was good enough to still be invited lol) and they were in the top 10 for clan wars. Needless to say, they got very antsy, pissy, annoying, sad, mad, and pretty much everything else all the time but the only time I would ever get mad is when some asshole would glitch to get a win. You felt so damn helpless in the normal games but luckily GB had refs for that sort of bullshit. Even then, some of the refs were young kids who loved the authority they were given and would shit all over one side to help their friends out, etc.

It was when I convinced myself I would never take my hobby as serious as those guys when it comes to how I do. The only real anger I feel is when a game doesn't work properly.
 
I'm a lot better than I used to be. In my younger days I had an extremely explosive temper. Now I just swear incoherently for minutes on end.

In recent times things like my ISP disconnecting me at night whilst playing BF4 is rage inducing; not to mention the 'good' job the game is already doing at making me angry.

This might sound light weight up to some other battles in Dark Souls but the Capra Demon has been my nemesis. I almost beat him on my first meeting when I had no baggage associated with the ****. I then fail the next time and then the next and it becomes a problem to me.

One morning I was so close to beating him but I thought it best to health up to be safe. The fine design that is the Xbox360 controller dpad thought it would **** me over. I started to pray rather than drink the flask - an up had registered rather than a right press. Suffice to say he got a hit in on me and killed me.
A bad workman blames their tools, but in this instance it was definitely the tool!!!!
 
Silent hill homecoming.

I snapped the disc in half and sent it back to hell where it came from.

The game glitched near the end and I couldn't progress any further.
 
Jak 2. The flying and hit the chipmunk over the head with a mallet minigames. Ridiculous that plot progression relied on these awful experiences. Loved the game but Jak 2 was full of that stuff.

Any COD. Unloading an entire clip into someone and them killing you with a single shot.

First post nails it. Whoever hosts is an unkillable bullet-sponge who fires heat-seeking ammo around corners and is a good second or two ahead of everyone else.

Add 'dedicated servers' to the long list of bullshit that we've happily gobbled up over the past few months.

The stupid god damned ball maze thing in PS Vita's Assassins Creed Liberation. What the hell were the devs thinking with this shit of a mini game. Thank god it was only a one time thing.

I was about to smash the vita against the ground while playing this garbage mini game.
 
I think the only games where I'm cursing at my screen is when I play MP-Shooter online. That random personal ordanance drops in Halo 4, when the enemy team got a lot of overpowered powerweapons in a row and your team only got things like Needler and Nades -.-
 
FIFA
It has got to be the most obvious answer for me, worst i've done is slam my controller against the wall, luckily the controller didn't break, it just kind of scrapped the paint off the corner. and I stomped down on a wooden beam that goes a across the chair I was sat on and it snapped in half.

Mass Effect 2
On insanity mode during the collector ship mission there was a fight that I was stuck on for like 7-8 hours straight. I went from being really pissed off, to where I was beyond being angry, and every time it reloaded I was just running into the battlefield and committing suicide in a blaze of glory.
 
Call of Duty mw2.

I have never been more pissed at a game than that one. Seriously infuriating with the amount of ridiculous imbalance that game has.
 
WoW raiding spot guild drama, nothing else even COMPARES.

If we're limiting it to rage at mechanics, and not at people, League of Legends, various stuff.

If we're limiting it to just single-players, Civilization IV "You have been backstabbed" fit rage.
 
I remember getting really, really angry at the end of Drakengard. All I can remember about that game is you're deaf and the final boss was like a giant baby or something.
