What games have made you physically angry playing them.

[Wolfhowl the shadow lurker]

The new tomb raider not only does that game ruin pretty much all of its good moments with cheap QTE but it rubs them in your face and that pisses me off so much every boss, it made me yell at my pc in rage and i think that if you removed the QTE from tomb raider and those overly long death bits then i would like the game

So The new tomb raiders QTEs

It's pretty rare for me to get angry at a game. Frustrated sure, but furious? Only one game has managed to make me reach that stage: New Super Mario Bros. Wii. I played with my brother and two friends, and after six levels I was ready to scream insults at them before I realized just how angry I was. It still astounds me how that game got me so pissed off at my family and friends.

The most angry I've gotten playing a video game was when playing Disgaea. I literally - yes I'm using that right - wanted to throw the controller into the television screen, then yank out the PS2 (which wasn't even mine) and throw it out the window.

Even thinking about that game makes me twitch. I did watch my friend play through it without incident though, lol.

I've got a few...

When Nanako "died". On some level I knew killing Yamatame would get me the bad ending, but I killed him anyway. Went right back after the downer cutscene and did it right, but still... Fuck, was I mad.
Same to a lesser degree when I found out that Adachi had been stringing us all along -- endangering some of my favorite characters just for a game of cat-and-mouse. That time the game let me beat the crap out of him, though.

Almost any RPG involving grinding or battles with even a hint of luck to them can result in this, too.

I remember when I was a kid I literally threw my Gameboy across the room after my seventh failed attempt at catching Articuno in Pokemon Yellow... Zapdos was almost a repeat performance.

XCOM made me angry on Classsic. So many times my guys barely even tickled a Muton, and right after they sniped my Colonel from across the map for a Critical Damage kill. I don't ever want to touch Impossible, as it'll only result in a broken disc.

Also, I haven't played CoD in a while, but I can still remember all the cheap deaths I recieved. Too much to count, and I was always on the recieving end. Pretty much ended any desire to continue playing.

SSX: Tricky, for the Gamecube. I don't think, in my entire gaming life, I have ever been so biblically angry as when I would play SSX: Tricky. See, I was good at the game, so I decided to go all completionist on it, getting every single gold medal I could. It... didn't happen. My father had to come down and tell me, very calmly, and very clearly, that I was getting too mad at the game, and I needed to put it down.
That was around 2005/2006. I have seen a handful of SSX games since for the Wii and PS3 that looked interesting, but I haven't picked them up.

Batman: Vengeance, for the Gamecube. If you've played this game, you know my pain. If you haven't played this game, then you are fortunate. At the time, I was shouting because the gameplay was among the worst I've ever experienced. Today, I'm shouting for a different reason.
See, this was (99% sure) the first voiced Batman game, using the legendary voices from the animated series. Kevin Conroy, Tara Strong, Mark fuck-mothering Hamill, they were all there. But the game was god-awful.

2 for Fallout: New Vegas.
1. I'm currently doing a modded play through, which increased crashes ten-fold (though they're less common now, like the game got used to them or something). I got another mod which saves at an interval of your choosing, so that's fixed.
2. I'm currently in the Dead Money DLC, and when going to pick up Dean Domino, Dog kept stepping on tripwires and pressure plates, setting off the traps. Most, if not all, pressure plates are linked to a cluster of frag grenades which took half my health and crippled a limb or two. Since it's early in the DLC and it strips you of all non-quest related items at the start, all I had were a couple crappy food items (2+RAD, 1+HP(5s)) and one Doctor's Bag.

Not so bad now, though. I found some stimpaks. But there's still an F-Bomb here and there.

 

[Silvanus]

Limbo made me very angry indeed for constant dying, and Rayman 1 made me very angry indeed for the necessity of finding every damn Electoon cage before it would let you continue (it seemed near impossible, and I eventually cheated).

Phantom Hourglass angered me by forcing me to head back to the one central dungeon & redo what I'd already done so many times, but that anger was mild compared with Limbo & Rayman 1.

Dead Island.

Those damn Infected (running zombies for those who haven't played it) are the most cringe inducing things I've fought in all my gaming life. They aren't that hard to kill but they come in swarms often faster than you can kill them and there are several spots on the map that seem to spawn them without end. I beat the first game out of spite. Haven't played the sequel yet. Hopefully they balanced it a bit better for single player.

Anything that involves multiplayer deathmatches or timetrials. Deathmatches are hell for someone with a less-than-stellar-lives-outside-of-the-US internet connection. For example, in Uncharted 2 punching someone is an insta-kill move. However, my internet can't process fast enough, so I need to punch at least twice before they die, but other people can happily get me once and I'm down. Or if you suddenly die in Far Cry 3 with no warning, because someone was shooting you the entire time but there was no indication at all, until you're shown a death screen from where you were 10 seconds ago. Also, since when does a sniper rifle at point-blank range not kill someone before you get shot by a shotgun? Why should it take up to three shots?!

And although I haven't played it, Scarlet Blade makes me literally want to punch a wall. Since I'm a female, the reasons should be obvious if you're aware of that game.

Every game where I get angry makes me get physical. Stomping or slamming to make the room shake makes me feel better.

The latest one is the recent Mortal Kombat. Fuck Shao Kahn [HEADING=1]Fuck Shao Kahn[/HEADING]

Just remember get your distance then spam the hell out of your most lethal projectile, if you are playing a character with one anyway.

Or, if you are playing with a more agile character just keep jumping over him down punch then follow up with an upper cut, try jumping over then jumping back to the side you started from too usually always works.

I spent most of the evening going

Don't worry, I found out how well range spamming works on him awhile ago, but before I knew and tried to fight him legit... it's just endless shoulder barges into 3 hit combos and his x-ray and woop, there went all my health, and then endless spears, oh gee thanks, guess I get to do that all over again.

I am still firmly in the camp of "Shao Kahn is a mother fucker".

 

[crazygameguy4ever]

The demo of Ninja Gaiden 3 Razer edition on PS3 pissed me off so much i almost broke my controller.. the game is frustratingly hard beyond reason.

 

[purf]

In general: when games take me for an idiot, the mouseclicks to quit and uninstall them can get furious. Talking about you, Bioshock.

Recently... I am trying to best my record for some track on Trials Evolution and I am flying through it, saving seconds left and right - beautiful! - and there's the finish line, just up the last ram- ohfuck. Ok, again.
Whoa, I'm even doing better now, just a bit of gas here and.. perfect! There's the finish line, just up the... WHATTHE!?

... the moment my bike's wheels hit the last obstacle, I'm playing the game for the very first time. Tried 5 or 6 more times before giving up. Rage was had.

This might seem a bit off, but here is my case.

A year ago they invited an Afganistan war post traumatic stress disorder veteran. Well, lets just say what he started talking about wasn't really pleasant to hear.

A few months later, I had nothing to do in the evening, I decided to pick up a DS version of COD Modern Warfare. I decided to pick a single player mission where you play as a helicopter gunner. As you shoot an explosive barrel, killing 7 enemies with extremely racist accents and apperances, the character started screaming "YEEEEEHAAAAA!!!" as the chopper started to gain speed. That killed me.

I closed my DS and swear I wanted to throw it out the window. I don't want to start a complex topic discussing war themed games. Not sure if it was my overall mood or the game itself, but I kept recalling what the veteran was saying, as well as the wikileaks Iraq shooting spree video. Guess the crappy voice acting in the DS version really did make me snap.

 

[Vicarious Reality]

It gets pretty Fing grating when i play the new Fallout or TES and the lag blocks commands instead of stacking them like normal

 

[ThePenguinKnight]

The early stages of playing Mass Effect, Dragons Dogma, and Deuse Ex Human Revolution got to me a few times. I think unexpected deaths from Tokyo Jungle are a real hit for me since you lose everything upon death, primarily HUGE amounts of time.

 

[Naeras]

Fire Emblem 7 and XCOM: Enemy Unknown are the only games I can remember ragequitting. Why do they invoke anger? Because of something that has 10% hit and 5% crit randomly killing a full health unit, because they, well, critted me against all odds. FE7 is particularly guilty of this, at least XCOM has semi-reliable ways to mitigate crits.

Even though I really like the games in question, there's nothing that makes me as angry as when the gods of RNG sit on a cloud, look at me and say "fuck that guy in particular, can't let people win games simply by playing well".
