Have you ever got so frustrated with a game that you...

Last fall playing Shadow of the Colossus, I spiked a controller on the ground because one of the colossi was just pissing off completely. I think it was that bull. In fact, I don't think I've gotten past that one yet, since I haven't played the game in months. The controller actually split on the seem along the side of it...though I simply had to push it back together.

Smackdown vs Raw 2009 on PS3: Nolan Ryan would've been proud with the way I tossed my controller after losing a nearly 2 1/2 hour Last Man Standing match for the Cruiserweight title against Jimmy Wang Yang of all people. For some reason he just would not stay down. I put him through everything, hit him with everything and the closest I got was a 9.999 count because Mike Chioda was busy marking out for the Ghetto Blaster rather than being ready to count the man down.

 

Ecco the Dolphin on the Genesis: For some reason I had acquired this game as a youngster and it would soon become the bane of my existance. I could never figured out how to beat the octopus in level two (I think). It probably didn't help that I never really figured out how to properly play the game in the first place. Anyway, it came to a head one day when I shattered the cartridge after chucking it into my Bret Hart wall collage. A couple years ago I bought the Sega Genesis Collection for the PS2 and low and behold Ecco the freakin' Dolphin was on it. I still never beat that octopus.

Oh, where do I begin...

 

- My worst meltdown came over a game of "NFL Blitz" when I was in high school. My buddies and I had a running 'Blitz Belt' (a foam WWF championship belt replica) that probably lasted almost a year. Rules were specific (no cheat codes, best of 3). On a particular Saturday afternoon, I was defending my title against my buddy. Thanks to some ridiculous AI, I got hosed out of the first game. Second game was a complete debacle, and with each failed play, I began pounding my fist into the wall next to me. Finally in the second half of game 2, I throw a backbreaking INT. I scream, "GOD DAMN IT!" and swing my fist at the wall in disgust ... only I miss the wall and put my hand through my bedroom window instead. Window shattered, blood poured down my arm. My dad was not amused.

 

- In college, I got so pissed with one of the NBA 2K games that I fired the box into the wall of my dorm. Box shattered (thankfully, no windows were involved this time).

 

- I've also destroyed a Dreamcast controller and f'd up a PS2 controller.

 

It's kind of strange looking back at this. You read this and probably think I've got some sort of rage issues, but outside of video games, I might be the most mild-mannered guy you'd ever meet. At least I can say that after more than a year of owning a 360, the system, controllers, games and their boxes are all still intact. There's hope for me yet.

Im on the verge of throwing my PS3 controller because od SD vs Raw online. Ive yet to face someone who treats it as a wrestling game rather than a constant running attack to stomp spamathon.

Well that's pretty much any online game...I stopped playing Mario Kart because of all the cheaters.
