I am so pissed off right now, just broke PS2 game pad in front of my kid (i feel super bad about that) I was so angry! I just grabed the other end of cord and swung it towards the floor (broke it into pieces)!
I wanna cus out the stupid mothereffers that created God of War! Where do I go to verbally lash out at the creators of this effin game!? In particular the scum that made the idiotic controls. I'm talking about jumping from wall to wall in the back, where you supposed to hold down the gamepad down and press X,X! Of course when I tried that Kratos is trying to walk all over the wall and jump left and right, BUT the ---gosh-darn--- back! And when he finally makes that effin jump, I clicked that damn x twice already so he falls down instead. Or when I manage to click the x twice correctly, I'm supposed to reverse the direction of the joystick mid-air, but good luck with that while I'm still dicking with timing the x, and so he fall down again. ---gosh-darn--- ---smurfs---, I'm still pissed off!! ---fudgesicle---!

I'm looking for the page for the 1st God of War, with some kind of way for feedback.

(yes, I know that's mental behavior, and I'm a big baby, but I think that game was supposed to be fun and not some kind frustrating endavor in timing the joysticks in unnatural directions!)

---fudgesicle---, now my eye-lid is twiching!

Probably. Luckily I had Amiga instead, and almost all the games had trainers in them, so I was kind of calm.

Probably not, but that wouldn not bother me, because I can still continue.

In GoW, I cannot. After trying and trying and trying, I realized that's only first wall and I tried maybe 30 times and still couldn't pass that ---gosh-darn---, ---smurfing--- control issue! (I'm getting mad again, just thinking about it) And then I would have to subject myself to this nonsense further in the game, that was it, I blew the gasket!

Put the game away, go get a new controller. Next time something like this happens take a deep breath, count to 10 and then calmly try again. Nah, F It, You should have seen what I did to an xbox controller when trying to and failing for what felt like the millionth time to defeat one of the bosses in Prince of Persia. I truly didn't know it would explode into that many pieces. The only thing I can advise is, Try not to behave like that in front of the children

Man you guys really need to get your emotions in check. I've never, even when I was a child, gotten so angry that I've thrown a controller. The sort of rage isn't for physicality... you've got to save that for rants on the forums.

I never did either but I did have friends with serious gamer rage issues. It's actually sort of hard to imagine now compared to today's type of gamer rage but I knew kids who would throw controllers, kick furniture, and saw one kid choke his little brother until we had to pull him off. All over NES games.

You couldn't destroy snes pads by throwing them around. At least I couldn't. Good times. Remember I wanted everyone at capcom to die because I couldn't beat Vega when I was 7.

No but you can destroy everything else in the room by whipping NES pads at stuff. And yep, in the hundreds of NES controllers I had when I did console repair, a good 50% of them must have had bite marks.

I threw a pillow across the room and punched another pillow repeatedly over Mega Man 6. And that's one of the easier entries in the series. And that was two weeks ago.

The NES controller, meanwhile, bounces like a champ. You can't break those things if you tried.

Yeah it's a shame Nintendo hardware isn't as sturdy anymore. Well I guess the controllers still are, but my Wii was the first Nintendo console I've ever owned that failed on me (disc drive) and the consoles from my youth got tons more abuse.

wont help.. but i missed the whole GOW thing.. for that exact reason.. and the Simon color match parts.. There is a reason Dragons Liar was fun.. but never spawned more then a few of that type games.. hitting buttons when shown on the screen .. we used to call that whack a Mole when i was 5.. it was fun then too i guess. I only recently revisited GOW when i picked up the new one on the PS3 (that early mountain climb with the titans... worth teh playthrough just for that!!!! awesome)

But yes some horrid control issues in a few spots.. GOW at the large Wall with the "god?" smashing through it as you climb and move.. Assassins Creed (almost same type of wall at start of game when you JUMP to escape.. The 2nd to last "NEW" Tomb Raider.. the flagpole swing scene when it changes perspective so your controls switch how they work in a very hard perfectly timed event.... when they do that ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---.. they need to make it close to a save point so I dont gotta trudge through 10 minutes of easy gameplay to get to it.. I GET IT.. its suposed to be hard.. but not because of crappy views, or controls that are somewhat questionable, especially when the controls work so well most of the time in said games.

Howard_Casto · « **Reply #15 on:** March 11, 2013, 05:19:18 pm »

Well I've said since the first one that the GOW games are just a lame ripoff of the modern Prince of Persia games with a little bit of the psx castlevania games mixed in. Only it's Sony, so of course they screw it up and don't give it the proper level of polish. But it's all agro and stuff and that demographic will overlook the crappiness of any game to compensate for their shortcomings.

And with that I'm off to play the ridiculously cute and not at all manly Nintendo Land.

I got so mad at EA's NHL 2010 exploit goals online (and year after year, the same bugs being shipped with the game) that after a blow-out game from some ---meecrob----nozzle repeatedly using an exploit to score, I calmly walked over to my 360, ejected the disc, then promptly snapped it in half and threw it in the garbage. That was the last time I bought an EA game, and probably the last time I ever will.

Never done anything of the sort outside of cursing. Though i only remember the NES as having any games that really frustrated me enough to curse out loud. Discipline, learn it, know it, breath it.

Solution to gamer rage over "challenging" games? Spend three weeks playing I Wanna be the Guy. Everything else will seem a cakewalk in comparison.

hypernova · « **Reply #20 on:** March 11, 2013, 08:31:31 pm »

That's all well and good that you want to destroy a controller. I did that once, in the same way you did, to a PS2 controller. It's the only time I've ever done it. Never before, and never after have I even so much as tossed a controller lightly.

However, the fact that you did this in front of your kid was the worst thing you could have done in that situation. When I broke mine, nobody else was even home at the time. I was mad about something that was a 1/20 shot happening...twice in a row. And I must've been mad about something else already I think, because that normally wouldn't bother me. At the time, the thought entered my mind as to "what would happen if I slung it by the cord and hit the carpet with it?" Carpet made no difference. It shattered pretty darn well!

I hope you aren't cursing the game the entire time he's around. By the way...isn't there nudity in some of those games?

loved reading some of the rage stories. makes me feel more normal. although mine haven't been as intense as some of the ones described here.

I have a buddy whose wife kept getting on him about playing too much Mario kart wii. He was playing with his son when she came in and said something. He unplugged the whole console, took it outside and smashed it to pieces.

I still give him a hard time about that one. The things games will make people do.

Your head would have exploded during the NES days.

ah the 3 lives (plus bonus) in castlevania.. the count battle at end. the Utter JOY felt when you had a couple health and he had a couple health and you got the killing blow in...

the UTTER RAGE when he turned into some giant fish thing, and hopped on your head killing you... and 2 + hours of game-play (been ages, how long from start to finish is it?) needed to be started over just to try again..

northerngames · « **Reply #26 on:** March 13, 2013, 01:51:13 pm »

lol brings back memories of my friend the nes viking he would whirl the console around until the controller let loose from the port and would shoot the console across the room.

he would get even more mad when we would pick it all back up plug it in and start playing like nothing happened.

then he was even more pissed becuase it still worked

hypernova · « **Reply #27 on:** March 13, 2013, 06:39:49 pm »

I have to assume it was his console, otherwise why in the hell would you let him play it again if that's what he did?

northerngames · « **Reply #28 on:** March 13, 2013, 07:08:14 pm »

it was his stuff at his place so all we could do is watch with a giggle until he was done and then we would plug it all back in power it up and start playing and then he would get even more mad becuase it still worked after what he did.

this happened multiple times and I swear his nes was bulletproof becuase it never broke after hitting walls floors freinds and foe etc. he was a riot with his gaming rage fits though haha..

another thing I will never forget is a game of street fighter in the arcade turned into a real match when a guy could not beat me and kept getting madder and madder until he shoved me and said how would you like it if I just kicked your ass in real life.

he got his fair waring that I would whip his ass quiker in person then in the game so just back off man it's just a game with a giggle and smerk.

he took a step back and tried to lay one on me and was not even close and I had to kick the ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- out of him for trying wich I felt bad for afterwise but something I will never forget and totally unexpected actions by another.

Never threw a controller, but I had a controller thrown at me. I am not a Halo player at all. The only time I played was years ago with a group of college friends. I don't know which one it was, but we joined in online matches and I was given a headset to talk on. I was clueless and lost, so I decided to just have fun with it all. I just started having random conversations other online players and started putting "side quests" in the matches.

A number of online players were listening in and following my lead. I was actually surprised how many online players I could get to repeatedly jump off a ledge with me. (We were "HALO jumping" Get it?

) All my friends but one were laughing their asses off about it, but one friend was pissed that I was playing wrong. It was about the time that I announced that I was gonna hold a dance contest that an xbox controller whizzed in front of my face nearly missing me. It left a hole in the drywall. He then held a 10 minute tantrum and kicked us all out of his mom's house.

That was the first and last time I played a Halo Game.

My 6 year old niece beat the heck out of my friend's 12 year old son while boxing on the Wii, in about 5 seconds per round. He promptly grabbed the nearest toy which happened to have some kind of rotating crank on it and turned it about 20 times as fast as he could. Being insufficient to quell his anger, he ran over and landed a heavy smack down on the kitchen sink faucet, busting it off along with the valve. 60psi shooting straight up at the ceiling. On a Sunday evening. Best I've ever witnessed.

I tossed a few controllers when I was a young'un but my parents wouldn't stand for that ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- and would ground me for acting out like that so I got over it. In college I let a guy get way ahead in Tony Hawk then strung together a few combos in the last seconds to beat him. Dude had been heckling me the whole time so I threw a bit of thrash talk at him right at the penultimate moment of victory and the dweeb lost his ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---, threw his controller, and started throwing punches. The rest of the evening rapidly went down hill from there.

ccmathome · « **Reply #39 on:** March 17, 2013, 09:34:45 pm »

I never get like this at most I might toss out a few swear words, but I've had a few friends that just blow there tops.
