What was your most memorable moment on frustration in a game, specifically when you came extremely close to achieving something only to fail for the umpteenth time? In case you were wondering, crashing into a random car with a 39x multiplier in Stunt Run on Burnout Paradise whilst trying to achieve the "Stunt Superstar" award was what made me think of this topic. |

I don't know if this counts but yesterday, I was playing GTA IV: The Lost and Damned and there's this arm wrestling mini game that I have to wiggle the right thumbstick as fast a I can. So I used my palm, because it's much easier and suddenly, my skin tore off. It realy hurts so bad. |

I've had so many controller smashes thanks to Halo 2. Not to mention a console smash and a bust tv. One of the most memorable was probably when I was using my mates 360 controller because I had previously broken mine, and I just missed out on a kill frenzy and I threw it so hard at the tv that it bounced off into the tv unit and made a huge dent. The pieces of the controller just flew all over the room and he just walked in and said ''that's my controller''. I bought him a new one though. |

haha ''That's my controller'' I can't remember what game I was playing at the time but I must have had a bad day cos I picked up the nearest thing to me, which just so happened to be an iPod mini, and slammed against the wall. The screen just burst open and my mum went mental. |

Yeah football games really suffer from lag. I also remember throwing a gameboy at my tv after losing to the Elite 4 in pokemon red for the umpteenth time. |

I can't remember the specific game or anything, but i remember throwing my PS2 controller at my wall and puttin a dent in it lol. and during a lvl in LotR: Conquest (knowing 360 controllers are expensive) threw it on the couch just missing my dad.. There were also several occasions where i just got soo pissed i nearly just bend/crush them in my hands I'm sure there will be more of those xD

Hm. Probably God of War. I get sooooo pissed at that game for some reason. If I die just once even I scream. I don't know why, but that game truly angers me and it is really not even that hard. I never throw my controllers and am usually a calm gamer, but I slammed a controller on a chair because of the game and broke off the L2 button. Another notable controller smashing moment is from the game Skate. There is this mission with Rob Dyrdek and Big whatever his name is from that show Rob and Big where you have to do this ridiculously hard trick. I spent a good 4 hours trying to beat that mission. One time I did the trick and all I had to do was grind off the curb which is never a problem for me. I fell off and had to restart. Almost in tears at this point, I hit the side of my TV with the 360 controller and cracked opened the little handle part on the controller. I managed to push it back to normal, but still. Ugh.

Halo 3 online. The end. Well, also Gears of War 2 online, waiting 10 minutes for a game. It doesn't make me throw my controller but I get really pissed when I can't find a game. |

I have a lot of swearing moments, and sometimes I get so pissed that I want to throw something, I never do though because what I have is what I purchased for myself, so I think I'd get even more upset to have to work longer hours in order to replace what I broke over a few moments of anger. Recent game to make me quite mad was believe it or not Big Bang Mini on the DS, so close to finishing a level and than some debris from my firework polishes me off. Tales of Vesperia had this weird bat sort of boss that was annoying as hell, I died once so I took a break, came back and beat it but was still swearing up an arsenal of profanity. |

probably when i was playing the gta 4 at the mission where niko had to follow a helecopter in his car and i had so much trouble with the mission and after playing it for around an hour and a half i beat it but (no lie) my girlfriend turned the power off because her laptop would not connect to the wireless internet during the the thing were it saves and does the little music. After all that it did not save let's just say the next day i bought a new ps3 controller |

Playing Final Fantasy 9 racing hippaul where you have to press square then O. I pressed those buttons so fast my thumbs were blistering. Came so close to beating him for an extremely rare item only for him to beat me by an inch. Oh and halo 3 when i stuck somebody only for it to lag and that guy survived. |

The taxi drive through NYC on Alone In The Dark for the 360...it wouldn't have been so bad if the game had actually WORKED and loaded like it was supposed to. Ooh..just thinking about it gets me flustered. >.< Also, Ninja Gaiden II. I was actually standing in my chair, screaming at the TV while I was attempting to play this one. Never, never again. |
