I swear. A lot. And invent a few new swear words along the way. One of my housemates walked past my room when I was playing Gods once (diagonal jumps are a bitch on my PC controller) the look she gave me was priceless. I've turned my DS off in disgust a few times (Trauma Centre gets me good), but I don't like breaking stuff so no throwing for me

My Dad threw a PS1 controller across the room once at the final boss of Tomb Raider.

GTA: San Andreas. Zero's mission...the one with the RC airplanes you have to use to kill Zero's rival's couriers. Thats the closest i've ever come to breaking anything. i must have played that mission 100 times before i finally got passed it.

I get pissed at them all the time. Usually when they freeze on me constantly, or they have other bugs that cause me to lose data/health/lives/time. However I just pissed at myself when I suck at a game and can't get passed a part or something. I don't DO anything about it, but I get pissed at myself. Especially when I'm, say, doing a song on OTO2 or EBA or something, and I'm doing well and get passed a part I was having trouble with, and then I miss one that I KNOW I should've been able to easily hit but didn't, thus ruining my chance on that run through of trying to get an S on it.


Or when your Mikki causes you to mess up...

I'm frustrated right now at a game...2 actually.

I just got RE4 for GameCube last night. And hell, it's hard. I've died so many times - and I'm on the first level!

I broke a gameboy color and GBA like that, one time because of pokemon yellow and the other on Super Mario World 3: Yoshi's Island.

But this was when I was younger, now I just keep re-trying with yelling on the side.

Oh my, that one just made me swear AGAIN. That was pure torture!
After going through the whole game with my boyfriend, I gave up on the last mission because I died right before the end.
Kinda sad, really...

I scream and swear. But I live in peace with my hardware.

I flail. I sometimes swear. But I don't hit.

Most memorable would be Megaman X6 on the X collection I think. Jebus was completing that game irritating...

Well... when I was a kid, I broke my Gameboy Pocket screen with my head while playing power rangers... I remember it so well, it was some kind of pit that I was trying to jump over, but I was in a hurry so I died on the same spot like 7-8 times, and every time I got more and more mad. So it didn't take a very long time before I found myself breaking my screen with my head... =/

After that i've barley squeezed my NES controllers so they make that sound they do when the yget squeezed

i nearly pissed myself with laughter after reading that XD

i swear real hard in this video playing street fighter http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e02IlEGGD4k, and this is just one of my casual gaming sessions, sometimes i can go on a swearing marathon and if it gets so bad i won't play the game for a very very long time, i've smashed controllers, punched my ps2, kicked my PC, smashed my keyboard 100's of times and i was very close to smashing my controller at my tv screen once, very close, but resisted and squeezed the controller very hard instead. XD

When I get to the point of frustration I visit GameFAQS.

How the fuck was I supposed to know to CLOSE the DS to get a symbol to show up on my sea-chart in Phantom Hourglass? That has to be one of the most obscure puzzles in any game I've EVER, EVER come across.

Gamfaqs is awesomeful, but only last resort for me. A couple months ago, I was so pissed at NFS Carbon, last boss. One TINY mistake, and you're basically f***ucked. I used my head to smash the Tv for close to 5 mins. Then I never played for a grand total of 3 hours. Came back, opened a huge can of whoopass on the guy.

On NES, I would get pissed and pull the controller cord where it connects to the controller, but those summbitches were well made and I never broke it.

On SNES the first time I tried that, fucker gave way and I had the controller pad in one hand and the cord in another. From then on I just stuck with the traditional method of throwing the (remaining) controller.

Edit: Or maybe it was the SNES controllers that didn't break and PS1's that did. It don't matter, all I know is one room in my first house got so torn up I had to learn to patch drywall, stretch carpet and re-punch copper phone wire . Good times.
