Games destroyed by someones rage..

[andsuchisdeath]

Has anyone been unfortunate enough to have their games or other important possessions destroyed by someone who's angry with you?

My white saturn pad was destroyed last night and I'm pretty down about it. I suppose it could be a lot worse but it's just so hard to let go of...

 

[Spike Spiegel]

No, but I had my mom steal and sell my Streets of Rage 2 game about a month after it came out for drug money. True story... that bitch. Came home from school, couldn't find it. Later found out from my sister what happened.

With that said, I've broken a few controllers playing Street Fighter 2 on SNES.

 

[FAT$TACKS]

Well years back, one of my ex wives, put my sweet custom leather pants in the oven and ruined them. My autococker in the dryer, only got banged up some. The hard drive out of my computer in the oven as well, and my xbox in the trunk of her car where it got bounced around good.

 

[wizkid007]

I entered this thread thinking, how many games did he lose? 100, 200.... 1 controller...

BUY ANOTHER ONE!

 

[SonGohan]

I've only broken one thing from "video game rage," and that was an SNES controller because I had such a huge fucking lead in Super Mario Kart and Donkey Kong came literally from nowhere and zipped past me at the very last possible second and won. I just threw it at the wall and bam, it was done for. Then I didn't have a controller to play for about a week, so I learned to not break stuff.

Funny story: I was dropping my friend off at his house after school and I saw a middleaged man run out with a Nintendo 64 controller and begin to repeatedly beat it on the sidewalk. Pieces were flying everywhere and he was yelling and screaming. I'd never seen anything like it. It made me remember when I broke my controller when I was a kid, and I almost wanted to ask him if he was playing Mario Kart 64, but I could see he was in no position to carry a conversation.

Custom leather pants? Sweet.

But what's an autococker?

I guess I guy with custom leather pants would need one....?

I was totally going to say how I broke my Genesis SF2. It was total bullshit that you couldn't map buttons and had to hit select to switch from kicks to punches. It took forever to beat bison. I just said fuck it and destroyed the game.

 

[Mike Shagohod]

Well can't say I've ever had anyone "break MY stuff" but video game rage as seen to it that the following occured:

(1988) ---Trying to beat CONTRA without 30 man code
I was at the alien mother's heart with 1 life, and right
before I could put the few finishing shots... one of those
scorpion things flew down and killed me.

What Happened? = I shouted "You Son of a Bitch!"
and threw the controller AT the TV, punted the NES into
a pile of clothes and proceeded to punch the sheet rock
wall... which caused a fist sized hole that I had not intended
to do. Dad went to whip me with the belt and I made the
mistake of reaching up and grabbing that belt and telling
him: I'm fucking 10, you don't spank me!" to which I was
firmly given a leg sweep and bobbed on the head twice and
told... Don't fuck with me son.

Needless to say, I didn't do this again for sometime.

(1989) ---At my best friends house next door (Jeff Allen).
We we're playing GI JOE on NES, the one with the Gold
Headed Destro riding an air chariot. I couldn't beat him
and punched the cartridge across the room, forgetting it
was a rental from Texas State Video. About 20 minutes
later Jeff almost beat the game but got killed, got mad and
round housed the TV stand, that () brought the TV
down tumbling in a circle, breaking off the antenna, and his
follow up round house put a huge hole in HIS sheet rock wall.

His dad didn't discover that hole until 1998 though, because we
hid it behind a Sandi Korn poster of her in a pink T-Shirt with
her boobs barely covered and her snatch covered (barely) as
she sat with a refrigerator door open with a caption that said:
"Too Hot".

(1990) ---While trying to beat NINJA GAIDEN, I was bounced off
a bird into a chasm and got so enraged I actually broke my TV
set. Needless to say I didn't get another one until 1992. I had
to play all my stuff next door.

(1997) ---Playing LAST RESORT on NEO:GEO AES, I became enraged
at that game, and literally flung it out my window glass and all, jumped
out that window almost cutting myself, punted it across the backyard
with a steel toe boot on and spit on it. It made strange noises (the
cart) but strangely enough... The Game Still Worked.

After that my video game rage more or less subsided and rarely
comes out. Well... this doesn't cover the 3 fist fights I got into over
Street Fighter 2 and KOF '97 in the arcades with people, but that
had more to do with misunderstandings, and the fact that I was one
who hated people who'd just walk up, drop a token or quarter in and
ruin my groove as I was trying to improve, knowing I wasn't as good
yet, then taking over the cab. FUCK THAT, so I busted a dude in the
mouth and we went at it for 3 minutes until someone yelled COPS!
and we all scattered.

 

[ki_atsushi]

Yeah, I've broken SNES controllers back in the day also. The L/R buttons are the first things to break. But I always super glued them back with no problems.

Another easy one to break is the Dualshock 2. I got so pissed one time that I squeezed the controller until it cracked. I'm lucky that the plastic didn't slash my hands once it collapsed. I think I was playing either 3rd strike or Hyper SFII.

The computer is super cheap.

But what's an autococker?

It's a paintball gun.

But what's an autococker?

Though it does sound like it belongs in some sweet custom leather pants, it is actually, or was then a rather nice paintball gun.

Damn! Remind me not to play against you in any fighting games, video or real

Personally, I estimated I have gone through no less than 10 PSOne controllers to the point I buy the cheap ones that cost $4. In my most extreme fit of anger, I smashed one completely apart over my forehead, bleeding like a muther and giving myself a concussion. That was years ago and most likely wouldn't try something like that again

I'm not proud of those facts, but that's what happened.

I was usually more pissed at people who didn't ask (as I did)
at the arcade: "You mind if I jump in?" Usually I didn't mind,
but the nerve of some of those fuckheads bitd, you know the
dorks who played that shit [SF 2, AOF, etc.] for an entire afternoon
every day 5 days a work week and were local GODs, but couldn't
let anyone else get better. Thus I did have more than a few
altercations.

The funniest moment in the arcade was the day Jeff (my best friend
to this day 22 years!) was playing SF III: 2nd Impact and this Asian
guy walks up and was just watching, he didn't put in a quarter or
anything, and he sighed and just walked off. The guy was even,
"You ain't going to finish?" but Jeff just kept walking. I asked him
why he did that.

His response: "Fucking Asians all know martial arts and the dude
throws hadokens in his sleep, yeah I'd have stood a chance. Not
worth the trouble."

Funny part: The guy sucked worse than most players.

 

[Orochi_invisibleink]

ive broken a controller for every single system i have ever owned (except AES). and when i say broken, i mean destroyed to the point that it was then tossed in the garbage. i also destroyed an original game boy back in the day by elbowing the screen until it broke. cant even remember what game it was that was pissing me off so much now

 

[ForeverSublime]

In 2006 I moved to a new city and stayed the first 3 months in a hotel style apartment. We had a cleaning lady, and by an honest mistake, unplugged the room's mini-fridge to plug in her vacuum and forgot to plug the mini-fridge back in when she was finished. The mini-fridge was on top of a dresser and in the top drawer were some of my games (old famicom games, complete in cardboard boxes). When I came home a few of games were water damaged from the melted ice... of course, they were some of the most rare famicom games (some with a market value of a few hundred dollars at the time). What hurt was not that they were expensive and damaged, but that the person I bought them from (a collector from China) kept them in amazing condition. Some of them were museum quality. He had re-shrinkwrapped all of the pieces (including manuals and registration cards) upon his ownership of the items... of course I'm more of the gamer-type so I opened them up to play, and hadn't damaged them a bit until then.

In fact, the day the games were delivered to me it was raining and the box was damaged - but since they were shrinkwrapped (to my surprise) everything was in top shape.

That hurt.

I was playing vf2 with my little brother on saturn, hadn't had it long and was doing pretty bad against his incessant button mashing. My determination to work around it in a civilised manner just wasn't working, but I was determined damnit! Anyway I should have just mashed back as I ended up standing up and throwing the pad at the top of the saturn really bloody hard from right above it. Resulting in the couple of circuit boards in the saturn having concentric circle cracks as it went down the boards, oops! A mate of mine was so convinced he could fix it he swapped it for a fully working neo cd with metal slug and kof 96

That was the one and only time I ever expressed rage in such a uselessly destructive manner.

Around the same time I hung out with a guy that would punch himself in the face whenever he lost at a fighting game and felt it was his own fault, I mean really fucking hard too. Thinking of that even ten or fifteen years later still makes me feel uncomfortable.

Last Resort still gets on my nerves every time I try to 1cc it.

 

[Maury V.]

I didn't destroy it but a few weeks ago, I was playing DDR and I was one step from finishing Max 300 but then I somehow missed the last jump step and I failed. I shouted "FUCK!" in front of everyone cause I've never gotten that close to beating that song in my triumph of trying to beat that damned song.

 

[Silky Johnson]

My mother back in 1997 destroyed my black saturn pad v2 because i was playing Tomb Raider instead of going to sleep. And i had no extra pads to use, so i had to wait at least 2 weeks to be able to buy a 3rd party controller

 

[Comrade Porn King Mikhail]

My girlfriend breaks a PS1 controller about once every couple of months when Crash Bandicoot, Spyro or something else gets really frustrating.

I let her borrow my SNES once. I was afraid.

Sincerely,

Mikhail

 

[tsukaesugi]

I used to hurl my Intellivision across the room whenever I'd get frustrated (I know I'm showing my age here). The fact that it continued to work is a credit to how well built the thing was. It only eventually "died" because the RF adapter cable became too frayed (it was still connected to the TV when I'd hurl it, and this would cause the cable to rip out).

How do you top this??? I sure as hell can't but
This has got to be a top 20 post of all time I laughed my ass off. pure awsomeness!!!!!!

 

[Retrogamer]

Because of Shinobi for PS2 I broke 2 controllers in 2 days time ... not on purpose but just by holding down the L1 button to keep everything targeted on the last boss, 2 caved in L1 buttons and a very sore ass finger later I finally beat that bastard of a game and screamed so loud my own ears were ringing afterwards.

but nobody ever broke anything of mine.

and Merc ... lol your post .. I love you man.
