"Another thing that I started doing quite a bit of since I got my first big screen is playing Sega Genesis. I cannot beat one game on my Sega Genesis machine. On my old Nintendo, I could beat a couple of them, but not Sega Genesis. It's impossible, and I refuse to upgrade to a faster, smarter machine because of it. I'm not blaming the machine, mind you. I don't get mad at it, or throw things at the TV when I get frustrated.

If it takes me well over 10 tries, you better believe I'll get mad and possibly throw the controller or something. :eek:
I just throw a pillow or something.
~Keep it gooey~
I just replay it, if it was a big loss though, I'd turn off the game, and proabably start playing it in a months time.
Just let out a large sigh, and keep trucking :)
if it takes a long time then i will start to insult the boss/enemies/challenges immediate family. Say he's adopted and his mother dosn't like him. Really pathetic $h1t like that.
Peace out and :rock:
EE
I just grit my teeth and carry on. Every now and again I scream into a pillow.
Depends on the circumstances, really. If I did it accidentally or something, I'll just sigh and try it again. In particularly frustrating situations, I'll just turn it off and go wallow in my own seething cauldron of hate.
Good game: I'll try again.
Less than good game: Get frustrated, turn the game off and do something else until I'm ready to play again.
If I lose against people in fighting games I throw the controller at them. If I lose in general I play something else XD
I forgot: I usually shout "smurfing hell!" out the window before shooting people.
i scream to the top of my lungs
>>> I focuse all my anger and frustration in my gaming skills and try again.
When I can't beat something after the third try, I get pretty durn angry.
I can get pretty mad sometimes. Only two games have ever caused me to throw a controller with any passion: SSBM, when trying to beat the 15 minute melee, and Donkey Kong 64. After losing to that damn bug in the slide race for the 20th time I broke my controller.
Depends on who I lost too...
Medal of Honor European Assault is the cheapest game ever. The level after Road to Stalingrad made me punch a wall and dislocate my pinky. Its fine now though.
Getpissed cause they jumped me and jump them back with a load of slashes or bullets.
Cry like a girl and tell it never to call me again.
like the very very very very rare times you lose to me, you tell the truth, I beat you with button mashing.Quote:

I just turn off the machine...
...Permanently...
I've thrown a couple of controllers in my time, playing sports games. I dunno what it is about that genre...
WTF???!!!
It really annoys me after four times, then any more and I smash everything in sight
When I lose a game I say 'Again?!'

It's worst with RTS games. When I've put 45 minutes into building an army and creating a MASTER PLAN and then I get Zerged, yeah, that annoys me lots.
My Idiot squad members get run over by tanks, kick grenades at me or run in my line of fire. I snipe off the Machine Gunners 4 times but yet they keep comin back. Theres at least 6 Panzer Tanks to take out, and not enough Bazooka Rockets. (At a safe distance it takes 3 shots, otherwise 5 grenades.) Someone comes outta nowhere and kills me. I could go on and on about that level. BTW its called Climbing Mamayev Hill. Its the hardest thing Ive ever done.Quote:

However, once you get to Farmhouse Liberation, feel free to PM me if you have any questions, since I've replayed it some much it's permenetly etched in my brain. It's one of those trial-and-error things. :mad:Quote:

I die.
Well...I think about what I could do to do better or whatever, and do it the next time, if that doesn't work, I think it over again.
Well... if I'm like that close *Demostrates with hands and fingers* to finishing the level or task and all of a sudden because I'm being all... 'I can do it, it's sooo easy' I suddenly die... then I get into a bit of a mood and immediately switch of the playstation 2.
O_O;;
when i die to enemies in Tenchu, they say stuff to me, and i say stuff back, like "oh yeah, why don't you say that to me while i'm alive!" Ayame and i have one thing in common: we don't like to lose :D .
Usually when I lose, I try again a few times. If I lose a few more times, I stop playing for 10-20 Minutes, and then start playing again. Usually, I get passed the part I was stuck at once I take that little break.
1)Die
2)Get Mad
3)Zone out
4)Kick Butt
don't remember getting mad at a video game
frustrated sure, but never actually mad
I kill people. It eases the pain.
Actually, I just curse alot.
Am I the only one who finds this thread terribly amusing? xDDD I find people's anger at videogames hilarious for some reason.
And I've had my share of it. I use to be lot orse when I was younger, and scream at the tv, anyone else in the room. yeah, if I was losing, I would take it out on my mom, or my brothers.
But now...the first time I die, I sigh, and continue. If it isn't working out the next few times, I say not a word, walk over to the PS2, and switch it off while saying something along the lines of "smurf you" or "smurf this" or "I don't give a [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img] anymore". Yeah, I swear a lot, I guess. :grinpink:
If anyone talks to me while I'm seriously pissed at a videogame, they get insulted. I am bitch.
:D
I usually say what the crap!?! 'cause it usually happens when the boss pulls some amazing move out of his upper rectum (if there indeed is an upper part). Like in vagrant story's last boss when he does bloody-sin and up 'til that point I was whooping him and didn't know he had a special physical attack (hence no protection for it). Sometimes I make "Ahnold the governator" sounds. Or I speak with a british accent, or a french one. Any accent depending on what kind of a pain in the bumbum he is.
Although a lot of this is just when someone does something really frustrating or something stupid happens. lol. Burying my head in the floor works too.
I put my foot through a TV fighting Yunalesca, and I break TV's/Controllers occasionaly, I guess throwing controlers at tv's /walls isn't good.
I'm a sore loser so i go in a Huff, and i usually have a go at my brother
"THAT WASN'T FAIR! ;______;"
Lose 1-2: I sigh.
Lose 3-5: I start cursing.
Lose 6: I turn off the game for awhile and watch TV.
Lose 7: I go break the nearest person's arm.
Lose 8 onward: You don't want to know...
Once, I was using a camcorder to record a video from a game and the tri-pod fell over. I thought I had broken the camera, so I put my foot through a wall. It was easy: It was a jump kick and the wall was a half-inch sheetrock.
Anyway. I used to be a real terror when I lost to incredibly frustrating games. World Hazard (or whatever it's called) for N64 caused me to break my only controller.
Plenty of fighting games also piss me off. Lately, the only one I play is Tekken. Tekken 5 pissed me off a couple weeks ago. I was using Yoshimitsu on Medium difficulty in the 6th or 7th stage and I was fighting against Nina Williams. I must've continued eighteen times before I gave up and restarted.
When I lose past the second time, I start insulting my chosen character. Like, "You idiot, hit her, hit her!" "Why did you turn around?" "Why won't you turn around!"
In all honesty, when I'm calling my character stupid, I'm actually directing my aggressions at the programmer responsible for that character's behavior. The more times I lose because of the sheer stupidity of an ally's AI or glitch that causes a lack of control, the more I seethe with hatred and loathing for those responsible. *stab-stab-stab*
This is why it is my goal to become the greatest game-writer/creator of all time. Once I am successful enough, I will buy out all other game companies and terminate all who were responsible for my misery.
The only way to truly destroy your enemies is to outdo them in their best talent. Though obviously for these games that suck, their creators must have absolutely no talent whatsoever.
I only calmly calculate a new approach if I am to blame for my failure.
When I'm really frustrated, I pop in GTA:SA
The first few times I won't get mad. But if I'm up to like my 8th try then I start cursing at the TV. :p
I'm an arcade gamer, so I'm amongst strangers a lo. I try to restrain myself in those situations but I remember one time when I almost lost it to some kid who challenged me to Initial D. I was driving my secondary car, Toyota Altezza (Lexus RS200) and I guess there was no way for him to know that it wasn't my main car. Anyway, he took me to Irohazaka under Wet conditions, the worst place an Altezza could go in those conditions. I should've been sliding all over the place and crashing into barriers but I managed to counter-steer coming out of turns pretty well and took the turns a little slower to bring more grip to the rear wheels. I was behind him the whole way down, just waiting for the right moment to pass, but then he pulls the Irohazaka reversal techinique on me, purposely driving himself into the apex of the turn so that I would ram into him (too close to him to react properly, it's the beauty of the technique) and reverse myself.
Long story short, I let my gaming do the talking and vented my anger just by whippin' out the ol' Lancer EVO IV and showed him how big a 500 metre gap seems when you get it without cheap tactics.
I just keep tryin. When I can't beat it about after the 30th try I just switch it off. Except when it came to Street Fighter. I forget which one it was. I lost to Ken like 100 times in a row. idk how. I guess I really sux when I fight Ken. I slamed my poor PS controller on the floor, and broke some plastc and a screw fell out. :p
On Planet Side when I form a sqad there is always one dumb guy who team kills everyone and then we lose.It pisses me off.
I dont mind losing i jsut do it again but when people start to question my gaming ability in a particular game i get pretty mad pretty fast.
Once I putted on knees in frot of the tv and ps and start beging from me to don't die!
I throw the vases down!
