I am not prone to throwing Playstation games across the room in the case of it snapping as that is what happened to my friend. (He is grumpy) But when I do find something that doesn't work well for me in a game I sometimes bang the controller off the ground or turn off without saving and losing previous data which I had not saved and that makes me even more annoyed. It is a tough life playing challenging games.
My GBA recieves the worst punishment even if it is my newest games system. When I come inches away from winning in Mario Kart or in F-Zero I will hit the screen which probably hurts my hand more but it does make the screen rather vunrable and feel as if it is going to fall off.
My PC (the worst for doing stuff I don't want it to) is all right. I don't mind when it fails to load up a screen or something like that. (well not much anyway) On my PC games not much goes wrong as none of them are really challenging enough for me. Take the Sims, in which even if something goes wrong, it can still be quite funny. Age of Empire is fine. it is kind of hard but when it goes wrong I have my cheats ready to make it all easy again.
Some of you may think that all of this is a bit mad but i will say that lots of people will be just as bad (or worse) than me. Don't think I am a looney though.
Thanks 4 reading, Afro.

I bet you hear this quite often dont you tilt! :-D
> I have that problem. i wish I hadn't used that walkthrough for Conkers BFD.
That's one game I didn't use a walkthrough on, I stayed up till god knows what time in the morning looking for some of the cash. Damn thing was on top of the Bats tower section.
I throw my N64 controllers across the room all the time, i'm suprised none of them have broken yet.
and that really it was easy to solve and that the walkthrough wasnt needed......
But after, I wish I hadnt!
