How mad have you gotten over a video game?

I was playing streetfighter 2 with my exgf. She kept kickin my ass so since I couldn't beat her in the game I punched her instead.

Recently the only thing that really pisses me off is CS:S. I just had to get a new mouse because I got into the habit of slamming my mouse on the desk when I got pwned hard. After 10 or so times the right button stopped working. I usually just throw fists into the air and swear a lot now.

diablo 1....the first quest you (mostly) got was the butcher. i could never fucking kill him until my brother told me to get/buy a short bow...and that was the end of that asshole. 3-4 chops of his cleaver and you were basically dead. this is if you were the warrior, cause you could at least take a couple of hits before dying.

if you were the sorcerer (never played the rogue - ever), i could never beat him...however hard i tried.

Yelled profanities at the top of my lungs into Ventrilo during some WoW arena matches.

Man I was afraid of that guy, I could never beat him either unless my friend was playing with me.

Smashed my PS2 controller until about 4 buttons wouldn't push anymore.

I went into a rage one time after I died with like 1hp left on a boss that I had been trying to beat for like 3 hours.

It involved donkey-konging my keyboard followed by throwing my mouse accross the room and breaking the game disk in half.

a lot of the time i just swear, loudly, in the foulest language and combinations i can think of. it's usually something stupid, though, like "son of a fuckbucket!" though the good stuff is priceless, and not anything i'd want to write here.

...but i've broken three keyboards, a mouse, three headsets, a cell phone, and a USB hub.... ive thrown CD-R's into walls... once i actually smashed an entire spindle of 100... ive thrown my desk chair across the room, thrown my hard plastic mouse pad into the drywall... left an interesting line-shaped hole... smashed down two of my four closet doors, slammed my room's door through its frame multiple times, also broke the door itself, replaced it, and have dealt significant damage to the replacement door. my walls are pockmarked from various things being thrown...

that said, i haven't actually broken anything in a long time (a year or so)... certain aspects of my personal life have resolved themselves in positive ways. so i think i'm past it. Still swear like it's going out of style though.

I got pretty pissed playing Shadow of the Colossus lastnight, the 14th one is fast and after the pillar hopping every time he just hits me and you stay down and he just hits you again. I played that level 4 times and finally said fvck this, I'm not playing this game anymore.

I broke several joysticks when I was a kid. And my brother went through a couple of keyboards.

I followed Anarchy Online religiously for a year and a half before it was even released. Pre-ordered and played from day one. A month later I was so disgusted I deleted it from my machine and never looked at it again

Yep, that game gets old very fast. Here's what everyone does:

Subway->missions in city->missions in wilderness->weird temple place

That's it, as far as I could tell. Maybe it's because no one plays it anymore, but the vast wilderness is mostly void of people. It's just the same old grind.

Edit: And I simply could not stand the 3rd land in Black & White. Not having your creature is just retarded - that's the best part of the game! Trying to follow the monk guy pissed me off too - I'm a freaking god! So I just set righteous fire to all the towns and dropped down a disciple to claim them.

Medieval 2 most recently. Kept getting attacked from all borders, getting screwed by luck/bs in battles, and non stop full stacks. I wanted to hit stuff, but just ended up yelling foul language (F) very loudly.

After a WoW arena loss I ripped my headset off and stomped on it. A lot. I had to get a new one.

I've broken a few thumbstick controllers in disgust. They dont do well when you slam them, thumbsticks down, on the floor/table.

I had to fix the jammed keys on my brother's wireless logitech keyboard cause he lagged out when he was "rolling for lewtz" in WoW ("fists, meet keyboard"). He won some rare antler thingy, but by the time he had logged back in, it had gone to someone else. He was pissed about that for weeks.

Smashed a case of burned CDs on the ground back when I used to play Halo over Gamespy. Now-a-days I just yell at the screen.
