I've slammed a controller down on the floor. No throwing it.

Dead or Alive almost made me do this, a few times. Not sure what it is about those games, but damn.

When I was a kid I used to play the Wrestlemania arcade game on my Sega Nomad (the one where it was totally unrealistic and kind of an arena fighting game). Lex Luger used to ALWAYS give me problems no matter if he was the first guy or the last guy in the story mode. One day he beat me and I just got so fed up I just threw the Nomad down and cracked the screen.

I slammed my SNES controller to the floor several times while fighting the final boss of Lagoon. Dear lord that game is broken - and not in the player's favor.

When I was 6 I played a WWE game with my brother on the Playstation 2, he would always beat me and never let me get up, so I smashed his controller on the floor until the circuit board was smashed to pieces.

Back in 2007 while playing World of Warcraft I got a lagspike that lasted over a minute, the screen just froze, nothing would happen. I was in the middle of doing some attument quests in a big hurry because I was trying to apply to the best guild on the server and I was stressing out. I ended up punching my keyboard repeatedly and as a result it lost a lot of keys and my fist started bleeding a bit. So I had to buy a new keyboard, which I'm still using (it's worn and dirty as hell).

I've never had the urge to throw a controller though.

I've never thrown a controller or even yelled at a game, but I go through a ton of controllers anyway. I did a number on my PSP with Project DIVA Extend...that game is just too intense! I put half-inch cracks in the casing around the D-pad and face buttons.

Other controllers have been worn out normally, smashed in boxes, and eaten by my dog.

:lol:whenever I'm playing a game and there's a Brit with a mic I make them say cunt. Speaking of which where's niode?

I know I've broken quite a few playstation one controllers mostly due to games that rumbled when you died. The controllers still worked they just had cracks in the bottom where I was able to rip out the rumble things.

Most recently I threw a playstation 3 controller due to Demon's Souls. I threw it at the couch and it bounced off and hit the floor (wood) now the right stick on that controller gets stuck up sometimes. Stupid dragon killed me on my way to get my blood stain that had about 200k souls.
