Rage Much?!?

Re: Rage Much?!?

I still yell at my offensive linemen, from time to time, but I haven't broken anything in years. I learned my lesson after having to play with the ****ty Mad Katz controllers, as a kid.

Re: Rage Much?!?

I once broke my Gameboy Color over an RPG game I played because it wouldn't let me save and immediately after I died in a random battle and had to start the dungeon all over again.

I also threw that game in the trash and personally escorted it out to the dump truck that happened to be on my street.

Other than that I just settle for yelling profanity at my tv/handheld screen.

I snapped NBA 2k9 in half and threw it in the trash... I had bought it used for $12.00 and man that game pushed me to the point of breaking something.. the game had to go.

I gave up on 2k until 2k11 and even though I don't play it much now, I still love that game and have had one of the best associations ever.

Broke a controller trying to beat Seth in SFIV. I threw it against the ground after losing to him for probably the 10th time in a row, and the controller pretty much exploded.

I grabbed another controller and then beat him the next try.

My other story wasn't my rage, but it involved me. Was killing my brother in Madden 2002 on Gamecube. He got so angry he opened the disc tray mid-game and took the disc and flung the disc right into my eye.

Re: Rage Much?!?

Thankfully, my rage is pretty much limited to tossed controllers (and basically just the nonchalant "flip" straight up in the air) that can't really do any damage to anything but the controller itself. Most of the time I even catch it.

Obviously, I resist that urge when I'm using a handheld system.

Re: Rage Much?!?

I haven't broken a single controller or disc, those things cost way too much for me to be throwing or snapping them while playing. I've never understood the getting mad thing, I've gotten frustrated but if it's that bad, I'll just turn it off or restart it.

Re: Rage Much?!?

Meh the worst i've done is just once I threw my controller at a wall after a Drew Brees pick in madden last year, otherwise I either just curse or give up playing for the day.

[Marino]

Ive broken controllers in the past but now I just yell if shenanigans happen. A lot cheaper that way.

Re: Rage Much?!?

Mostly I just yell at my games now. EASHL tends to bring out the worst in me.

Back when I had a PS1 i remember it stopped working, it wouldn't spin the discs. I got pissed and punted it across my room against the wall. Had to explain the noise to my mom made up some lie. The amazing part was after the punt my PS1 worked again. Really created bad habits of "fixing" video games when I was a child.

Re: Rage Much?!?

I rage a bit on cursing and stuff.

Those of you remember my fits in Killzone, lol.

Never broke a system but I have broke controllers. Strangely enough I throw them and the worse that happens is the battery pack pops off, I drop them and they break.

Stuntman for PS1 ? I beat that game, but man was it difficult..

I used to stay up until 6am+, with one of my friends, playing that game. We would destroy a case of mountain dew. I can still hear the director's voice in my head.... such a fun game, yet frustrating.

Re: Rage Much?!?

I destroyed a huge arcade machine as a youth all because of an annoying Shao Kahn in MK II.

I'd imagine Shao was the source of much rage in those days (still is in MK9, even....LOL)

Re: Rage Much?!?

Im more of a yeller at the screen than braking anything. I may kick some things at times too.

Wow @ some of these replies.
