Gaming Damage...

[ckam]

Soul Calibur 3, just to see what all that fuss about fighter games was about. I didn't mind QTEs before, but this game really likes to fuck you over with them.

"Press the G button! What? You don't know what the G button is? Well, if I explained it to you, you wouldn't be able to press the G button in time, right? Oh, now you just got owned in a cutscene, you fucking twit. Why didn't you press the fucking G button... Well, yes, it would take an extra few split seconds to figure out what the G button means on your controller, but you're supposed to know where it is already! Well, yes, we could have just replaced the G button on the screen with a Triangle button or something, but that would be too easy and not confusing enough for you to think about it, you dumbass. You know what, I'll just take half of your health bar for being such a fucking idiot."

Now, my PS2 controller can barely read my thoughts since it's censors have been crushed.

Numerous controllers from different consoles... and 1 old school CRT monitor hit with a baseball bat after the billionth time I lost a match of Blitzball in FFX

 

[PureChaos]

nothing at all, if i start to get angry with a game, i stop playing to prevent things like that happening

 

[AMAZED]

I lost a control a headset and one shitty cellphone to COD, I have since stopped playing that game. lol

Hi, I have anger managment!

Someone on my team killed me, took my rocket launcher, T-bagged me and then sent a message to gloat about it.

1 broken hand and 1 hole in ceiling.

 

[Eccentric_Jon]

I squeezed a PS2 pad to death. It cracked in my hands, and was unusable because of jagged plastic being everywhere.
Other than that nothing. I try to keep my temper in check with gaming (except for swearing a bit)

 

[Something Amyss]

Never broken anything due to anger. A couple of times, though, when engrossed in a game, I thought my Playstation controllers were going to snap from the torque I kept inadvertently applying to them.

 

[chiMmy]

I haven't destroyed anything while being in a rage. However, I've had keyboards and mouses that's been broken, mostly because they were really battered up when I got them.
(I've never really bothered with what I use when gaming, I'm still really good and I see it more like a handicap )
Tho' I've spilled coffee/water/whatever on several keyboards which messed them up good. I think I'm at my 5th keyboard, but since I bought an expensive one it's still working after 5 years

I still miss my tiny laptop mouse I used, before I threw it away, it squeaked(quite loud) as soon as you moved it or pressed anything.

I can't remember destroying anything but my hand while enraged. I once hit a punchingbag that was suspended around a pillar, turns out the bag was way too thin for hitting that hard and I punched(more or less) straight into a concrete pillar.

Edit: I realised when reading about my squeaking mouse, I did actually bash my mouse I had before that one, into my desk so hard that the ball inside got some flat surfaces

 

[scorptatious]

Can't say that I have broken anything out of frusteration from a game. I usually just swear when I'm frusterated, and if I did feel like hitting something, I'd punch a pillow.

 

[Disgruntled_peasant]

Wow... I have never broken anything in rage at a game, the furthest ive gone is perhaps swearing at the screen- but thats directed at some asshole online rather than the game itself.

 

[Goody]

I haven't broken any gaming equipment due to rage, accidentally smashed a glass after getting angry at Metal Gear Online and flailing my controller onto the glass next me forgetting it was there, both the controller and my hand were fine though.

I also shot my Lego star wars disc with a bb gun when for some unknown reason it was already scratched beyond playability.

And slammed a third party PS2 multi-tap off the back yard floor and walls for a bit of fun after trading in my PS2.

 

[jopomeister]

My wrists, from slamming the floor with them. They click, a lot more than they should...

 

[Davey Woo]

I've broken a load of controllers over various Tekken games. I also kicked a hole in the wall over FIFA. (It was only plasterboard I'm not that tough)

 

[PonceyMcTosserFaic]

I wore out 1 360 controller just from regular use. I RARELY get pissed at a game BUT when
i do, usually just swear and grip the controller really hard. f--king MW2.

 

[Auninteligentname]

2 PS1-s has been played to death.
A number of PS2 played to death.
A number of games been played to death (and a few which is very close to death).
A logitech G5 mouse played to death.
Number of times I've destroyed something from my game collection: 0.

I don't destroy my stuff by anger, they die because I've used them to much.

 

[Daddy Go Bot]

Nothing. I don't punch gaming objects, I punch bitches.

 

[Nelson McCulloch]

Nintendo makes their shit durable man.

Everything but the DS shoulder buttons. Those things stop working real fast.

Otherwise, I personally haven't done that much damage, but my brother once completely destroyed a Nintendo DS screen.

 

[NastoK]

I punched a hole in my chest of draws due to COD. God I hate that game...What? Battlefield 3 is being released soon? Screw you Activision!

Battlefield 3 is being published by EA, not Activision...Battlefield is COD's competition.

Umm, I think what he meant was something along the lines of "Screw you Call of Duty, I'm playing Battlefield 3 from now on." Hence the "God I hate that game."

OT: Aww, I kinda feel left out having only broken a keyboard while playing Super Meat Boy.

 

[Exocet]

I hit my desk lightly,and take it out verbally,but I don't believe I have ever damaged anything,other then people's feeling(I hope).

 

[Fat Hippo]

I've punched and smacked my screen in frustration. Luckily, it was one of those oldschool fat screens, so the only damage done was to my fist.
