    Anybody else sometimes get mad when you play video games?

    I was just wondering because when I'm playing one and it's not going my way I have a temper problem. For example, I busted out God of War a couple weeks ago trying to beat the stupid thing on God mode and I couldn't do it so I smashed my controller into the floor and broke it. That was the 2nd controller that I've broken since I bought my ps2 about 5 years ago. I have also been known to throw something else random thats just sitting near my tv that I play the game on.

    I can proudly say I have never broken anything or gotten into a fight from playing a video game.

    The second that something like that happens I think I will have to stop playing.

          I used to get PO'd when I played the old Super Nintendo games b/c they were so unrealistic. Nowadays with the games being as realistic as they are, (there are a few exceptions) I don't really get mad playing them.

              I think my controller throwing days are over. After I broke the last one I went out and bought a logitech wireless controller which was expensive so I don't think I'll smash it. I need a punching bag in my room or something...lol

                Yup,just the other day playing Getting Up,train level got rather frustrating since it was difficult to figure out what I was supposed to be tagging and I kept thinking I got it when I didn't so when I got to the end of the level I had to start over again.

                Don't get mad if it's on hard mode though,supposed to be frustrating then.

                  I get mad but it just makes me want to beat the level or opponent. I play until I do and then mumble curse words at the game. Then on to the next level. I've omitted curse words the last few years though. I use to get extremely mad at NBA 2K games when the sliders started being added. They seriously made it weak for me so I adjusted it to give the computer a slight edge and the CPU ran with that joint. Never slammed my computer, but man I mumbled the hell at that game. Now, I'm more at ease and chilling. I don't play fighting games definitely cause that might get me aggressive...but boxing might be a good one to check......

                    I got calmer after I did a 24 hour game-a-thon for a presentation in AP Lit.

                    Best presentation ever, I think I got a 38/40.

                      I get frustrated, but it's not worth getting pissed off at games since their there for enjoyment. It makes me want to beat the level even more, but sometimes I just give up.

                      When I was younger, my brother broke a few NES and SNES controllers from anger whenever we would be beating him in a game. Now that was frustrating.

                        Not really.

                        I'll sometimes get angry, but never mad, I've never thrown a controller or anything.

                          I start yelling and swearing and stuff. I don't throw things though, or at least nothing that could break.

                            Been there, done that. I really get upset if I sense cheating by the AI... that's the worst. I've never broken anything to my knowledge though.

                              Yeah that's the way I am. Never broke anything and I doubt I ever will. I'm too laid back.
