What games have made you physically angry playing them.

[DanteLives]

Tekken 3 on the PS. Heihachi Mishima was the penultimate boss and he always fucked up my perfect run. I hated the guy with a passion. I'm pretty sure if I've thrown a controller in my life, it's because of him.

Same thing here. I was Paul, 1 round won each, with little health left. I hit Heihachi at the same time he hit me and it ended with a Double KO. I got mad because the game gave the round to Heihachi. It was at the time when I didn't realize that the CPU always wins a round that finishes in a DKO.

When I played The Force Unleashed 2 and finished it 2 hours later after paying 50 euro's.

BLOPS 2 is a big one, for me. Especially maps like Plaza where the camping spots are all over the place and when they're not camping, they're hiding in corners. It's BS, man! Play the fucking game! I actually get annoyed when some camper says something like "But this is war, I'm just doing what I'd do in real war." Blah blah, man. Just admit to being a shitty player. I do get the need for snipers and shotgun folk, they're good tactics. But when there's 3 of them in one spot, no. Although, it is nice when you just walk through the door, see them looking out the exact same window and you just unload into them, getting an easy triple kill...

Also games like Marvel vs Capcom 2. Fuck that game and all like it. Have you fought the final boos? Spams the EXACT same moves over and over.

Dark souls:

I was on a major grind fest trying to collect souls to go up to the next level before fighting lord Gwyn. Currently, I had needed over 120,000 souls to level up merely one time.I was attempting to build up my strength to use a more powerful sword for the fight as I had allocated a lot of my points toward vitality and endurance. Now, this was before I managed to find a few sweet spots for farming so I had wasted about three or four hours grinding all over the place in random locations. By the time I had finished I had more than doubled the amount of souls needed. Well, when it came to killing the last opponent, a black knight, he managed to stab me just before I could heal myself. When I tried to go back I was greeted by the same black knight who managed to kill me with his great sword while I was standing on my remains...I missed collecting my 240,000+ souls by a fraction of a second. I was so angry and frustrated that I worked out my rage on my punching bag. A whole month passed before I picked up the controller again to play.

I remmeber in forza motorsport 2, one of the events where you had to use a racing car, which are super fragile, and the game sticks you at the back of the grid.

I think I spent over half an hour just getting past the first corner as an AI car would randomly ram me every blasted tuime, wrecking my car and making me restart the race

 

[Elementary - Dear Watson]

Final Fantasy X when I was a bit younger and a bit less skilled and patient. I wanted the ultimate weapons to beat the Dark Aeons... but I couldn't get most of them because there were Dark Aeons in the way... This infuriated me and I stopped playing...


I repurchased it recently, and when I have cleared some of my other back log I will play it, and play it, and kill all the bloody Dark Aeon bastards!

 

[Woodsey]

I'm pretty sure a part of my brain melted due to rage when playing Hitman: Absolution. A 6 year wait for that shit?! Come on!

After about 3 hours I was playing out of sheer bloody-mindedness, and it was annoying me at every fucking step.

 

[AlotFirst]

I'm going to say Smite. For those who do not know, Smite is a third-person Action MOBA (inspired by games such as DotA). Yesterday I got quite angry because I kept losing, even though my score in every single match was pretty good.


Want to know why I kept losing? I think this image explains it very well:

[Toxic Sniper]

I think you're forgetting that Steel Battalion Kinect is a thing : )

Oh christ...

Sorry, THIS is the worst thing From Software has ever inflicted on players... Although I'm not sure whether to blame From, Microsoft, or God.

 

[Scarim Coral]

Last time I acted like that was Pokemon Pinball back on the Gameboy Color. I felt that game was base more on luck (when to press the flippers) than it is to tatic so I pretty much acted like "F--K YOU PINBALL!". Yes I pretty much suck at that game.

Spec-Ops later levels on suicide mission difficulty and presumably all levels on FUBAR difficulty.

Let me hit you with a completely personal example:
There was this old RPGMaker game called Dragon Blade. It was a pretty stock JRPG thingie, but it was written on my first language, and since I was still a kid at the time and I had some troubles with English at that point, having a game I could completely understand pretty much blew my mind at that age. I played the game, and it was okay, even in retrospect. It had good characters, an ATB battle system that was constructed from the scratch (the original RPGMaker 2000 had static turn battles, the programmer of this game actually threw that entire system out the window and made a complex battle-system using in-game variables and sprites), and the story was engaging, so I had a blast with it and sunk about twenty hours into the game in one weekend.

Now, I told you all this so you understand the position I was in at the time: It was my first JRPG, the first time I had spent so much time on a game, and I enjoyed it immensely... and then that event came around...

The characters were in a town that was being razed by a demon, and they had to run away before it caught up with them. It was a fully interactive chase-scene where I had to lead the characters out of the burning town while the demon was following behind them with the same speed, so every moment of hesitation made it reduce the distance... and then the game started to play like a slide-show. Yeah, apparently the game's engine didn't like the 100+ flame sprites on the map, so it started lagging like crazy, and as you might have guessed, it didn't really help my chances in an intense chase-minigame...

So, I got caught. Retry. Got caught again. Retry. This time I ran into the fire too many times and the characters died from burns. Retry. Got caught again. And I did this for four hours for no avail until I snapped. This was the first and only time I ever lost my cool so bad that I threw my keyboard at the wall, but dammit, I was furious about it, especially after I have spent so much time on it. In the end I managed to finish that game once the developer put out an effects-free version so that people without high-end computers could also finish the damn scene, but that game still remains the only title that could ever make me rage hard enough to actually throw something at the wall...

Wellp, I'm pleased that I don't get even remotely angry over games. I don't think I'd be able to handle that, judging by these stories.

 

[E-Penguin]

GTA: San Andreas. Not the gameplay so much (Which is passable) but the absolutely dreadful main character.
He's a hypocrite who runs around doing dreadful things for no good reason.
For example, a couple of builders call his sister (Who literally is a prostitute) a hooker. What does sane big brother do?
Run into the building site, murder everyone there and bury the (Completely innocent) foreman alive. That was the point where I stopped playing. It's just inferior to GTA 4 in every way.

Wait, CJ's sister was a prostitute?

I don't think that's ever mentioned in the game.

Is it hinted at?

 

[AgedGrunt]

Physically angry? Well -any- fighting games like Mortal Kombat, but I distinctly remember denting my metal closet during one annoying match in WWF Smackdown. Mostly just learned to avoid what gets me mad and stopped playing competitively. Sucks because I can't even get into WvW in Guild Wars 2. It's up and down; you're either having a blast, blindly scouting and trying to avoid getting jumped or getting rolled if your world doesn't have the numbers.

I've sat through many a punishing single-player/co-op challenge, but e-sport and structured PvP is beyond my patience.

I nearly broke my hand trying to get the S License on Gran Turismo 3. The test with the Toyota One with no TCS or ABS. I tried it so many times and ended up punching the wall. I got the license in the end, at least.

Always hated the license tests. Destroy AI on the track with ease, practice and spend your best on tests and get bronze 2 out of 3 times...

 

[Colt47]

Well, the only game that created an emotion equivalent to anger in me was Two Worlds, and I think it had something to do with how crappy a game it was and the fact I was charged 60 dollars for it.

 

[Flaery]

So I was just playing Hotline Miami... You see where I'm going with this. My head is pounding because of how frustrating it is to get everything right only to take a shotgun shell to the face in the very last second.

 

[Snowblindblitz]

Mario Kart.

All the Mario Kart.

I scream, I throw controllers, I cuss. Nothing but anger, nothing. I physically cannot play that game, as people just leave me.
