What is the angriest you ever got playing a game?

Portal 2 on ps3. Not long before the last level, game glitched and i got stuck in the floor unable to move. No worries thought I, switched it off and back on, discovered it had autosaved including the glitch over my only save file.

Very very annoying and a lesson to backup your save files.

The two games I got maddest at were at the last boss on Dead or Alive on the 360 (that green thing, who could mimic all the characters in the game), it would basically counter every single move you did and teleport behind you before unleashing an uncounterable barrage of pain repeately before you die. I got so mad at it that my mum came upstairs and was like "if its making you so angry, then maybe you should stop playing", which just made me madder lol. I'm still convinced that sometimes on that last boss, the game just decided you weren't going to beat it that time.

That thing was a HUGE pain in the arse. What really hacked me off about that boss was that occasionally it would let you win a round and I'd be thinking "hey, I'm going to do it this time!", only for it pummel me for the next two rounds without taking any damage. It was like I was being taunted and teased by the game. Infuriating.

I remember a friend of mine having an enormous paddy after Sagat repeatedly kicked his arse for a whole afternoon on Street Fighter 2 on the Megadrive.

This one got me too. I didn't break anything, but I remember yelling obscenities at the TV and just having a mini meltdown in general. I timed it one time and it took me like five minutes to get to the boss in Time Attack, but took me another 45 minutes just to beat her. Such broken boss design.

SFIV ranked online also got me a few times. My girlfriend would get annoyed when I'd play, because I'd growl and swear when I lost for some dumb reason or another. She said I was full of bad energy when playing that game, and I can't really dispute that. :P At one point when trying to use Makoto online, I took the disc and started bending it and visualized snapping it in half, but reason prevailed and I stopped before the breaking point. Disc still worked fine.

I tried doing that to my SSFIV a few posts up only to realize that discs don't snap; they warp, fold, and tear, and the layers come apart. I had to employ scissors to finish the job.

Were you really able to snap it in half?

Haha! By the time I'd have taken to fetch the scissors I'd have cooled down and regretted bending my cd.

I'm sure I snapped it, but if you say you can't snap them I must not have. Either way, it didn't go back in my ps3 ;)
 
Recently the Splinter Cell: Blacklist side missions where you instantly fail at any point if a guard alerts and there are no checkpoints.
 
Rarely do I get angry enough to do something more extreme than turn off the game or slam down on my bed a couple times, but I remember one puzzle thing I just could not do in Ratchet & Clank when I was really young caused me to throw my controller at the floor as hard as I possibly could. Nothing broke or anything but it sure sounded like it could have.

Nowadays I just focus my anger on to doing better and it works! I should always play Smash Bros furious.

Speaking of fighting games, hooooooolly hell Marie in Skullgirls made me livid back when it first came out. Absolutely impossible for a casual scrub like me. Got her eventually but damn.

This is what I'm imagining right now:

Lol. It was a brandFord exchange new england patriots floor lamp my dad bought me for christmas in 2003.

The funny thing is instead of throwing the controller on the ground I threw it on a pillow figuring it could not cause any damage. Natutally the controller bounces up and hits the top part of the lamp which is all stained glass.I felt like such an ass.

Lucky for me my father is handy and was able to glue it back together.


The thing is I never really get frustrated playing single player games. Only online games. I hate losing to real peoeple.
 
My angriest moment came while playing Street Fighter II (SNES) and trying to beat M. Bison.

Such a cheap SOB! Rematch after rematch left me beaten and angry... and then I snapped. As in... I snapped my SNES controller.

Paying to replace it was a valuable lesson, though. I learned not to damage or throw expensive stuff when a game pisses me off. I just scream profanities and shut the game off now when I get frustrated. It's very Bob Wiley, but it works.
 
Playing co-op on the hardest difficulty of Resident Evil 5. The game was just unresponsive enough that almost every time I died it felt like it wasn't because I did something wrong it was because the game didn't allow me to do something quickly enough. Video game frustration in its purest form.
 
Mario Kart 64 as a kid, getting lightning bolted right as I was about to take the big jump in Wario's Stadium.

It wouldn't have been so bad if it wasn't the 1000th time.
 
Ninja Gaiden (XBox)
-First time I came across Alma. She killed me 19 times before I finally got her. I was so pissed I took off my shirt and threw it at my TV, then yelled at it, lol. My stepsister was watching me play and was highly amused. I was fuming.

Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition (XBox)
-There was this race that I could not beat. At one point I was FINALLY about to get the win when some random school bus came out of nowhere and crashed into me. I threw my controller and chipped a part of it.

Halo 2 (XBox)
-My friend and I did a random team battle in oddball, most of our team ended up quitting. We were left to face a bunch of kids who would grab the ball and then camp in an unreachable place. They were telling us to quit the game since we couldn't win, we ended up making them wait. We still eventually lost. I ended up sending death threats to one of the guys, even found his MySpace page and sent him threats there, too. He had no idea who I was so he was legitimately freaking out (ended up closing his page).

Halo 1 (XBox)
-Last mission on legendary, co-op with my friend. Took us forever. I ended up swearing at my TV when we finally did it.

I used to be crazy. Don't think I've raged in a game since then.
 
As a kid my older cousins would egg me on til I did freak out.

When I got older. .. Some major Socom 2 clan matches got me to almost break the controller.

Recently. . BF3 on the 360. My glasses were broken so I used to sit about legs length from my entertainment center so I could put my feet up while playing. Slammed my hand down on the flat part of the entertainment center... the 360 jumped. That was before I knew that if you even touch the 360 while running it would scratch the disc
 
I recall some karate game on sega master system that pissed me the fuck off bad. I used my controller as a lasso and bounced it off the tv screen with no damage but then it hit me in the forehead and I started crying and screaming and use it as a lasso again against the walls. I hit myself in the head more than once more until the thing was in pieces.

I have got pissed as an adult but luckily I don't take it out on hardware, punching a heavy bag is great to relieve stress.
 
Oh my god.....has to be that total BASTARD OTIS in Dead Rising. That complete lunatic wouldn't stop fucking calling me whilst surrounded by zombies. The amount of times I died because of him bleeding pestering me all the time. Hate that fucker. Hope he died a horrible death.
 
I've never been much of a rager, I really don't see the point in smashing my stuff up. 14 year old me used to get really pissed playing Unreal Tournament sometimes, but I'd just turn it off and go in a sulk, haha.
 
I was playing League of Legends last year. I don't remember exactly what was said, but people were trash talking me. I ended up slamming my hands down on my keyboard a couple times. A bunch of gibberish came out from me in chat as a result. My keyboard is still intact and working without issue to my surprise.

I've only ever broken a controller once, and it was during the Seymour Flux fight in FFX. Because when you've done that fight ten different times and lost each time with a well-equipped party, it's only a tad infuriating...

i was over with the game at Seymour fight
a major letdown, was having a blast with the game until then.

after 329874932 tries i was sure that i did something wrong and could never end him.
 
Wizard in Unit 13. What a bag of shite, cheating fuck. Infinite respawning in a room with only one entrance and fuck all cover. Every guy spawns with a one hit kill shotgun because of the range you have to be within to even try and finish the level.

Incredibly frustrating and has marred what I otherwise considered a good game.
 
Street Fighter 2, SNES, M.Bison. Fucking prick.

I smashed a piece of firewood into the fireplace and got a giant sliver in my hand. Which enraged me to the point that a controller had to die.
 
Probably the last couple of days that I have spent on the Halo 5 beta. My setup is installed on the top of my closet and in a fit of rage I essentially did this:

Pai_Mei_teaching_Bride_Punch.jpg


This is the last day that I had before my grad work starts up again and I spent most of it on trying to fix the damn drawer to my closet.
 
I have played some cheatin' ass games, but none of ever cheated more blatantly than Virtua Tennis on the Dreacast. That fucking Tokyo doubles match. My friend and I would get so mad. If the ball is coming toward your guy, and you're holding left to smash a forehand down the line, you can actually WATCH THE AI CHARACTERS TAKE A STEP IN THAT DIRECTION BEFORE YOU HIT THE BALL. I would get so pissed off. Eventually in a fit of rage I held my dreamcast controller against the wall and punched it a few times scarring my hand and putting the controller through the drywall.

That probably takes the cakes for me, but I get pretty routinely pissed playing CSGO every night. Certainly not very becoming for a 33 year old man.
 
It was some platformer (I forgot which) but I remember I just kept talking to the protag as he kept dying "Oh you WANT to die right? That's why you keep fucking up huh? SURE keep dying like that!"
 
League of Legends solo que.

I'm over most of it now but people getting pissy and uncooperative and then yelling that their elo is higher than yours still ticks me off.
 
I punched a window fan when I couldn't beat the final boss of Project Justice on Dreamcast. My hand bled. The casing on the fan broke. The fan kept working.
 
I can't play fighters online. If the person doesn't have a headset and they beat me I just imagine them mocking me and I get super pissed.
 
Virtual fighter for the 32x with my older brother. I was able to kick his ass at every game but that one, and man did he rub it in. Hr would play with the asian looking guy that does the spin kick and he would just spam it over and over and over and over. Plus he would get right in my face he time he did it and would make the sound the charecters would make.. oh I would get so frustrated but so determined to beat him. I would go hours with even winning a single round let alone a match. Im sure I through a thing or two... I can still picture him to this day getting in my face and making the spin kick sound....

Oh and getting platinum's in blast corp for the n64. I remember screaming at my friends house and then looking outside and seeing people on the street looking at his house. Oh how I love/hated that game... and sooooooo want a sequal
 
I've thy crushed keyboards in half and broke over a dozen of xb360 controllers. Thankfully I have much more control now.
