Confess times you raged at a videogame no matter how little or how insane it can get.
Playing Forza 2 only to get it to shut off because of a power outage and to get a RROD when power comes on again. *-_-

I've had my nerd rage moments in the past but i'm very good at managing them now, having a very infuriating younger brother helps in that respect lol. I've never broken any controllers or anything but I bet i've come close.

I'm sure we've all played Saints Row 2 (if not do it, I highly recommend it). I was doing an activity to get more respect to play another mission. To do this mission I have to do tasks while dressed as a cop while being taped by a recorder within the time limit. The more tasks I do the more footage gets added to the footage bar. When it's full I pass. Well I got 3 minutes to do it all. The last part of the activity took a long time but I managed to get the bar. When I glanced at the screen closely, the timer was 0:00. I waited for the verdict on the next screen and yep you guessed it, I failed and I gotta start the whole thing again. I suppose this story could be used in other games in similar scenarios but still every time it happens a rage is inevitable.

Its not my own story, but my cousins got so frustrated while playing my Harry Potter Quidditch game that they both chucked a tantrum together (they are twins and were very young at the time) and ripped my headphones out of the computer and slammed them on the floor... not cool man...

I can't say I've gotten frustrated enough over a game to rage, but I remember cursing the living daylights at an arcade when someone who was playing a shooting game did well, flipped the rifle over his shoulder, and smacked me over the head with the barrel unknowingly. I wasn't even standing that close.

Hmmm, i cant really remember any games i raged at... Perhaps one or two games of DOTA when Noah keeps Fcking dogging you and is 3 times your level... (Dunkley will sympathize with me on that one)
But my adopted little brother... he rages at least every 5 mins and throws the controller across the room, thus why he doesn't get to touch any of my consoles under pain of death.

I've seen Noah after he's been 'power-gaming', damn him and being good at dawn of war 1. We'll have to set the record straight between Ballarat and Horsham at the end of year LAN. DotA should be very interesting.

Every freakin Zangief player on the online mode on Street Fighter IV. His throws can be done anywhere, anytime, despite any kind of countermeasure you do. Every single Zangief player I faced, always spams the Lariat to avoid my projectile attacks (I'm a Sagat, Sakura, Rufus, Akuma player btw). Especially when i've been knocked on the ground it's Lariat this and Atomic Buster EX that.

Moral of the following story: don't come between your brother and his guitar picks.
I came home from shopping and he's asking if I bought him his guitar picks. I wasn't aware of any guitar pick shopping for him. So I decided to head on to my room to play a new DS game that I just bought. My brother stops me and asks what was in the bag. I told him it was a new DS game and get lost. Thinking that I was a liar he tried to take the bag on me. Since I had a DS in my pocket (because back then the DS was new and fun) he decided to snatch that out of my pocket and throw it on the hard slate floor... My DS was damaged beyond belief. I spent the rest of my day swearing at the little twit and trying to get over the fact that what was one of the coolest consoles I've ever played, is now unplayable.
