Poll: Ever thrown a controller

[Mistermixmaster]

No. The closest thing must be when I'm playing games late at night while almost dozing off. Many times have I dropped the controller in a cutscene because of vibration (from say, an explosion/tank ramming through a wall, etc) + bad grip because of late-night-tiredness xD

 

[TheSquashedOrange]

No, actually, which I think is pretty remarkable considering that I've defeated Demon Souls on new game plus (ManEaters made me come close once though.)

I've dropped controllers from about 2 feet due to falling asleep during late night gaming, but I've never thrown any. My roommate is notorious for being rough on his controllers. If our controllers get mixed up, the way we tell them apart is by shaking them to see if they rattle.

Does falling down count as throwing a Kinect controller?

I've thrown a few controller but I've yet to break any. The 360 controller seems to be forged of bit's Excalibur because I've yet to break one...

 

[Ducktard]

I haven't thrown one on purpose, but I have BITTEN controllers in rage..

If that counts for anything

 

[[.redacted]]

Never out of frustration...

...But once as an opportune weapon while not actually playing a game.

 

[colourblind]

I feel sorry for my controllers but I must say the 360 controller holds up well after you kick it into a wall.

 

[dicai]

Nah, I just scream offensive things to the game, character and their relatives and punch a door or wall next to me. The door makes a lot more noise than the wall...but not enough to quiet down my screams... Yes, I'm a really sore loser.

 

[wastedyouth89]

Yeah I throw them sometimes. But usually at a couch or something so they don't break.

 

[Adam Galli]

I've tossed it on my bed out of anger a couple times. I've never broken a controller out of rage though. Its my little plastic buddy!

 

[Zinaxos]

Of course, I threw the controller, RAGE QUIT, then punched my cat.
...
In all seriousness though, yes, I have thrown my controller. Though, I never rage quit and I never harm my cats.

 

[galdon2004]

I only ever throw a controller when it really deserves it; like when the buttons don't respond right from the.. other.. times I.. threw.. it.....

 

[Astoria]

Sure did, and freaked out because I thought I had broken it.

 

[LightningBanks]

I cant really throw a mouse.

Not without it being effective enough to calm my storm, or it going far.

 

[Au Naturel.]

Corn for the win.

I didn't throw a motion controller/wiimote before, but I did toss my 360 controller at the wall out of frustration. DAMN SPAWN KILLS I HATE YOU STOP USING THE CHOPPER GUNNER GOD DAMN YOU PIECE OF SHIT GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

My my, your post count! I remember it like it was yesterday... you had just over one hundred posts!

Well, Utsuho beat me up pretty nicely again, and at the time I thought it was a good idea to punch the arm of my couch... which I later found out was supported by wood. But that was some time ago!

 

[Oktanas]

Few times wen I was searching for something in a cabinet and a controller got in a way.

 

[DanielBrown]

No, but I've dropped one.
I generally don't get that pissed at games, but I fail over and over the frustration can make me squeeze the controller. When I hear it start cracking I tend to stop!

I once threw my PS2 in the floor as a last attempt to try and fix it though.

That was at least 3 weeks ago. And yes I post a lot.

 

[Ailia]

I've never thrown a controller out of rage (I yell at the screen instead) but I have dropped a controller on many occasions, or just knocked them off of tables and so on.

 

[Nyan Cat]

Several times. All of the from rage quitting when playing either CoD: MW2 or Black ops... I'm surprised it still even works...
