Not so much rage quit. but revenge on the sexist a**holes I once played Red Dead Redemption multiplayer with.
Finding out I was a female (I know, shock horror) they kept shooting me. I started a second match with them, wrapped my mike into a second set of headphones, and blasted white noise at them.
Not the most evil, but it made me feel better!

XCOM (the old ones) where you would land after shooting down a UFO and just die, losing all your high level squadmates because some bastard, scumlord alien decided to just explode the brains of my men. Eff you game, Eff you!
I've slammed my keyboard/mouse around a bit after getting my ass handed to me in multiplayer first person shooters (Crysis 2, Battlefield 3, etc) but thankfully at the time I was using a Logitech G110 keyboard and Logitech MX518 mouse...both of which are quite break-proof 
Back when I was younger I'd sometimes rip out N64 cartridges while the game was still playing.
Guess it made me feel like the system was screaming "Whaaaat? No, you can't do that, it hurts me!" to which I'd reply "GOOD."
It lingered a little during the time we had a Play Station, but it didn't feel as 'good', cathartically speaking.
These days it rarely happens, but it does every so great often, happen.
Last game to get me that angry was Tokyo Jungle. Deleting my save ensured I'd have no temptation to go back.
One particular game that stands out in my memory as well is the first Stuntman game, in the career mode.
I remember the game's hit detection being terrible terrible terrible.
Which is REALLY bad when a game demands you to make hairpin turns, squeeze through really small spaces, and all other manner of automobile acrobatics.
I've thrown a great many controllers but I've never broken one.

Don't play GTA 5 cause the cops and gangs have the most perfect fucking aim that can get you with a head shot a mile away, even if you are over a fucking mountain, and spawn right next to you when you are hiding to you are extraly fucked.Reaper195 said:
FIFA 14, nearly every night. I've thrown the controller a fair few times since I got this "game". This game is fucked up to me.
Defenders running twice the speed of wingers. Anyone who knows football should be well aware that theres no way Carlos Puyol would outrun Theo Walcott, no fucking way!
Jedi Knight defenders, they know where you'll pass the ball before you do and intercept with a flawless first touch.
Jedi Knight Goalkeepers, save after save after save after save. I'm sorry, but Rob Green is nowhere near that good.
Dumbfuck team mates. They either run the opposite way when your attacking, stop in mid run when your about to play a through ball or just watch the ball roll past them, just ignore button commands and stand there ect.
Can't say I'm happy with this one....

I remember snapping my ps2 pad in half whilst trying to complete a clear run of def jam...never really rage quit though. Quitters never win!
The first blitzball match in FFX which is almost impossible to win as the computer fucking cheats. That pissed me off to no end.
I've never been that angry at a game at all! In fact I have only been angry enough that I lashed out at something once in my life, and that was truely warranted! Now I am ok though, and have enough self control to never be in that state again!
Then again, I don't play online. If the game beats me through the rules that were written into it then I think 'fair cop' and adjust my tactics to their rules! Hell... it's more realistic that way anyway! If an alien race wants to set up an ambush in a room that I had just come from and I have to fight my way out at close range combat with my sniper that is severely lacking those skills then that was bad planning from my behalf and I will adjust as neccessary!

If any of you have tried an Expert Realism run on L4D2...you'll know the pain of a random player joining. ( Sometimes, they'll be genuinely awesome people ) All of those hours crawling to the finale are wasted as they Leeroy their way across the map...Caused a few cases of flying mouse recently.
I rage a lot when playing online multiplayer, particularly over my own stupid mistakes in Halo. The only game to ever make me rage so hard I had to hit something was Ninja Gaiden 2. I had just beaten the third boss, don't even remember his name, but it was a very frustrating battle. After the fight, you have to 'ninja-run' across some water... that has bombs under the surface. Bombs I had no idea were there. I died, and where do you think my check-point was? Why, right before the fight against the boss I had been battling for 3 hours! I unleashed my rage on my pillow.
Thankfully I've never thrown or broken anything. My roommate, though, has thrown a controller AT me in our high school days. Those original Xbox controllers really hurt. =(

I came very close when I was in the Crystal Caverns in "Dark Souls", on the place where you have to move along the invisible beam. I probably fell off that damn thing 10 times.
Was about to throw my PS3 controller, but then I remembered how expensive they were.

I'm usually a calm person. Usually. Just not with kids, the elderly, people in my age group, or feminists.
I did throw an NES controller right through my tv once. Can't remember which game, though.

You just pointed out ever experience I went through in GTA Online. Asshole players killing me before i full spawn then when i get them back, they put a bounty on me!! My main rule of GTA Online is DON'T TRUST ANYBODY. If you see anyone coming your direction just have a gun out just in case and once you finish a mission with anyone just get the hell out of the area because everyone else spawns near you and you know one of them will try to kill you for your mission cash.Caramel Frappe said:
Don't get me started on those GTA cops. Fuck me they have the most perfect fucking aim that can get you a mile away even if you are over a hill or high in the sky. You can't out run those bastards either cause they spawn right in front of you which is unfair. You hide somewhere where you think they can never find you then BAM!! one of them spawns next to you. Worse thing is the healthcare bill is already too high so when they kill you, you lose a lot of money and your car has been impounded.
Being utterly annihilated by one pokemon on the opposing team is always a good recipe for pure frustration. Especially when that opposing pokemon is a mega lucario. Oh? Lucario is already one of the more overpowered semi-legendary pokemon? Lets give it a mega-Evolution that effectively doubles its already insane level of power! How grand!
Then again, I am terrible at pokemon in any capacity. I have a hard enough time taking care of ONE character in an action RPG (for example), I don't see how they expect me to keep everything perfectly balanced among a party of 6.
Otherwise any frustration is of my own doing. Like Choosing Ganondorf when fighting a competent Metaknight. Its like pitting a puppy swimming helplessly in the ocean against a great white shark. It just won't end well. Attempted to break my controller in frustration, only to look even more foolish when I just ended up hurting myself. (the controller was fine too, gosh dern Nintendo Products are freakin' tough)

I love Tekken, but one day playing Tekken 6 online i ended up throwing my headset at the ground to which it snapped in half and punching myself in the leg, my fist connected at the little finger knuckle bending my hand sideways, for months twisting my right hand was painful.
I've spiked my 360 controllers on a few occasions. The last time I did it one of them popped open. It snapped back together and still works. I haven't done it since, but I will sometimes yell profanities.
