I thought it would be fun if people posted the moment where they really lossed their temper while playing a game and what they did.
It could be one boss you can't do, a multiplayer where your mate allways killd you etc.
I'll start.
Way back when Tomb Raider 2 was new, I died, and i didn't have any ammo left, so I was really annoyed when I kept restarting a few steps away from the boss. I tried endless times to kill the boss but I just couldn't do it. On my 120th (about that) attemp to kill the boss, i failed, and this time i had it! I through my controller on the floor (cracking it) then punched the wall causing damage to my knuckles.
So come on, dont be shy, tell everyone the moment you lost your temper and what you did!
Thanks for reading.

You already late!
LOL, i think you hurry becausae you don't want to get any later than you all ready are. :-)
My mate is the worst with rage, he was playing SSX for the first time, and EVERY time he crashed he would get so mad and start cussing the game/console and when I giggled I got a punch in the ribs!
Still, I lived to tell the tale. Anyone else want to share their moment of rage with us?

I'm lucky, I'm really too laid back to get 'gamer rage', and this goes for driving too, I can sit quite happily in a traffic jam without getting stressed, (no I don't own a Volkswagen Golf).

However, I do have a mate who I team up against on FIFA 98, TOCA Touring Cars, World Championship Snooker and so on when I'm round his house playing on his PSX, and his temper is phenomenal.
For example, when we're playing TOCA, we have to decide in advance if we're going to play 'co-op' mode or just see who's da man and have a 'no rules anything goes' race.
Everytime we play either version, if one thing goes wrong, the controller goes from his hands one second to the other end of the room faster than you can say Alain Menu. Same goes for any time he loses, he loses his temper as well.
When he beats me (now and again I let him just to keep the 'chill factor' going), I just sit there quite serenely, I don't worry about it, but I think maybe he takes his gaming prowess too seriously, whereas with me it's more about having fun.
