I just witnessed someone lose a match of Soul Calibur 5 and rage out. This guy broke about $170 in controllers and random objects he could toss. A $500 TV could almost be added to the list but he lucked out while tossing his 360 controller and it only smacked one of the edges. Toss in some wall repair since he turned around and kicked a hole in it directly afterwards and you get possibly the largest meltdown I've ever seen in person for something gaming related. Quite possibly the best part? It was against the AI. After doing it he turned to look at me and yelled "why didn't you stop me?!". The worst part? I'm related to this idiot. Ugh. So anyway, what is the worst gaming related meltdown you've witnessed? |

While I do wish he would think of it that way I don't see it happening. If wasting money was going to clue him in I think he would have stopped being a petulant child hundreds of dollars ago. At this point, for me, it's pure apathy. So no one has similar stories? |

Biggest rage I've done or witnessed... Some of you have heard me refer to my friend Dan, a GameStop employee. I was at his house, and as SOON as he went onto XBL, someone sent him a request to play a game. MvC3, I think. Dan ignored it as he wanted us to play 1v1 together on the couch. Another request. And another. And another. All from the same guy. We haven't even picked our characters yet! I saw the notofication come up 12 times by the end of the first match. After the first few, I commented how that guy needs to take a hint. Dan smirked. After the 9th, I commented how it's getting distracting. Dan agreed. After the 12th, Dan asked me to pass him his Turtle Beach's. I obliged. Dan immediately initiated Party Chat with the guy. Here are Dan's words: "How much longer? How much longer until you take a god damned hint? I don't want to fucking play with you right now. I have better fucking things to do than to help you get Achievements, you silly sonofabitch! You do this each and every fucking time I come online! DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW FUCKING CREEPY THAT IS?! Don't you fucking EVER message me again, you stupid bastard!" At this point he covered the microphone and asked in his usual, calm demeanor: "Hey John, pass me my Arizona Ice Tea?" I did. One of those resealable glass bottles. He took the last sip and then whipped it against the wall before removing his hand from the mic. "DON'T YOU FUCKING TALK TO ME LIKE THAT! DON'T YOU FUCKING FORGET I KNOW YOUR WIFE, ASSHOLE! How about she and I have a conversation?! I'm sure she'd love to hear about how you've been sucking off her brother, dipshit!" Then he blocked him, turned off notifications, and I sat there in an awkward silence while he proceeded to beat the hell out of me with combos from Zero I've never seen before. At the end of the match I asked WTF that was all about. His response? "Meh. Just some annoying guy from another store." |

Haha, I understand his anger in that situation. Been there myself except after I ignored the first million notifications he started spamming people on my friends list. I didn't rage but I do have my friends list hidden after that, and naturally, he's blocked now. |

I've never been a rage gamer, there's only ever been one game that's made me rage and that was the original Crash Bandicoot. Not really sure why it pissed me off so much but in the end I gave up completely and never tried to beat it again, though the stupid save system might have had something to do with it. I lost like two hours of work because I hadn't saved in forever since I hadn't gotten to a bonus area in a long time. Of course, I never EVER abuse my equipment. When I was younger when I got mad at my brother I used to throw my PS1 controller on the ground because I was mad but the controller survived many more years after that. Since then I can't stand if someone with smudgy hands touches my controllers, I make people wash their hands before they touch my controller. My brother STILL leaves this white gunk that I can't figure out on my PS3 controller and it annoys me. I tell him all the time to wash his hands but he doesn't, ever. |

Leaves white gunk on the controller.... I'm not touching that one. Literally or figuratively. |

I really, sincerely, hope it's not what you are implying. It could just be that he never ever washes his hands so it's just built up grease or something which is omething I loathe about him, he refuses to take care of other peoples' things even when told. I find smudges on my discs all the time despite him being careful with discs and I'm sick of it. He's as much of a gamer as me, or used to be at least, and knows to take care of things but he doesn't. At least he puts discs in cases but when I tell him to put my PS3 controller charger in a certain place he just kinda puts it on the ground, or in a place where it falls on the ground, even though he's repeatedly seen where I put it (right next to the PS3, under the controller when I'm not using it) He used to just leave the charger and controller plugged in at all times but I got him to stop doing that. Most controllers I don't care but having a battery plugged in and constantly charging can ruin the charge of the battery. |

An old friend of mine (haven't seen him in years) threw his NES against the wall after a particularly irritating few hours of Battletoads. It still worked. I also witnessed someone jump (literally) on the Sega Mastersystem... Although I forget the game. It also still worked. Haven't seen anyone rage since High School - PS1 / Saturn days (mostly controllers launched against the wall) - stuff is so expensive now... Raging is silly. |

My brother placed-kicked the NES when I was playing it because he got pissed with me for some reason. He's very strong, BTW, and the thing wound up with a dent in the side. But it still worked, only thing off was the sound. Those things were built to last. Too bad with the NES though that getting carts in properly was such a pain.

My controller and I have gotten very acquainted over the years, sexually of course. |

I remember one time I was playing Halo 2 over system link: it was me and my buddies Alex, Chad and Joe. Alex was a friend of mine from 6th grade; Chad and Joe were brothers we'd become friends with through school. I got stuck on a team with Joe on one screen, while Alex and Chad hopped on the other screen. To be fair, I've never been particularly good at any video game, and Alex was a master FPS player--not just in execution, either. The man simply knew what he was doing on all fronts. It wasn't long before, during team-slayer matches for some reason played on Coagulation (which was way too big for four players) he and Chad locked myself and Joe down in whichever base we spawned in through use of a sniper rifle and the tank. I had never been so mad at a video game. Every time I so much as peeked out Alex performed .50 caliber brain surgery, or Chad shoved a tank shell up my armored, shiny ass. Joe kept tooling out of the back of the base, sure he could get into a banshee or another tank--and never made it more than five steps. It was hopeless, and Alex and Chad, enjoying their reign of terror, flatly refused to play any other games or play any other maps. It was 4-player team slayer on Coag, or we weren't playing. They'd chosen to take the TV in the top floor of Alex's house, we were in the basement. Alex told me later he knew I was coming when my character stopped moving; all I remember is barreling up two flights of stairs with every intention of punching him for such blatant spawn camping when I was already handicapped by the fact Joe had never touched a Halo game in his life. (Joe is now one of the best players I know.) I got into the room, snatched up their bowl of chips and flipped it over, told Alex if we didn't change maps or games I was going to flip him over (the banister) and stomped back downstairs. All the while, his mom's watching this entire thing, and I get downstairs, and I apologize, and she goes "oh, no, it's about time someone told him off, he and Chad do this to all his friends." |
