To those who have never thrown a controller in rage, have you ever golfed? If so, did you ever throw a club while golfing? Same principle.

If you play golf, you deserve to get frustrated.

As my close, personal friend Robin Williams put it:
"Hey, I got this great idea fer a game. You'll try ta knock a tinee li'l ball into a little gopher hold no more than an inch wide." "Oh, so you just hit it in the hole right in fron' o' ya?" "F*#@ NO! We put the hole a hundred or so f*&@ing yards away! And we'll stick a flag in there ya can see fr'm far away to give ya a l'il bit o' hope. And we'll stick a whole bunch of weeds and water and sh*t ta r'lly f*&@ with ya ev'rytime ya take a swing. Hey! We'll call each swing a stroke 'cause ev'ry time you swing it feels like yer gunna f*&@ing die!" "Oh, great, so you only have to do all this one time?" "F*#& NO! EIGHTEEN *@&#ING TIMES!!!" |

About a month or so ago I was playing a PS2 game with a cheap-ass piece of shit controller, and I got so pissed I threw it onto the floor as hard as I could. It didn't completely break, but I did lose the R1 button, so I still can't use it anyway anymore, unless I find the R1 button and can reattach it so it would respond when it was pressed.

Broke one N64 controller playing Goldeneye 007, trying to beat the Silo level on 007 Agent. Fucking impossible shit. Always got to that last part where the machine guns are firing at you from the ceiling, right before the elevator.
I'd get like 2 steps from the fucking elevator and the cutscene for victory, and the fucking machine gun would get me, or some guy who I thought I had killed but obviously had not. Also threw a couple controllers playing Mortal Kombat on the good ol' SNES, but those things were made for throwing. Would never throw an X360 controller... at least the older controllers have cords, so they can only be thrown so far. |

I tend to break PS2 controllers just by playing them, though.

I usually just slammed my fist down onto my controller, repeatedly, rather than throw it in anger. The only problem with that was that my controller would usually be resting on my leg whilst i did it, so i'd end up getting big bruises on my thighs.
But I haven't done any of that in awhile. |

No but one time I got so mad at Smash Bros 64 I took it out of the system and threw the game against the wall.
Thankfully it didn't break, never did anything like that again. |

At least once that I can remember and maybe on another occasion or two.
The one I can remember involved a game of FIFA many years ago against a cousin on the Gamecube. Only thing I remember about that match was it being very close and missed a great chance to score right near the end of the game that would have won it only for my cousin to go on a big counter attack and scored to snatch the win instead. Chucked my GC controller on the floor and it bounced right back in my hands. To this day, the L trigger on the controller is still a bit messed up from that incident. The other one that I'm not entirely sure might have involved getting super pissed off over some of the very hard trial-and-error style levels in Donkey Kong Country Returns and might have tossed the Wiimote once or twice out of pure frustration. |
