Stories of being a bit TOO into a game? - Page 3

Used to be into America's Army. My team was in a TWL Semi-Finals match and lost to our rivals in overtime. The last round I freaked out and broke my keyboard in half over the edge of my desk. Turned out one of the players hacked the entire second half of the match and the result was obviously reversed. Still I always think about that when I start getting mad and laugh.

Yeah, my brother (Age 15). If he dies in LoL, he yells, screams, stomps his feet and throws crap around. He's broken several mice, a few keyboards. Yet, my mother doesn't get any psychological help for him. I'm just glad I don't live there anymore.

LoL must be crazy. I was in a BF3 team speak sever and a guy had to turn off his mic because his roommates were playing LoL and being crazy loud ha.

Ive never gotten too mad at MP games but some SP story missions really make me

I never really raged over a game but I did have an interesting experience back when I played Darkness Falls The Crusade (old Mudd). Basic commands were look (object), take (object) and so forth. At work I caught myself literally saying out loud "look toolbox" and various other commands. My dad gave me the strangest look. At that point I realized I had been playing it a bit to much.

I've never raged hard at a game, but my first MMO experience nearly ended my marriage.

I think I may have killed a spacebar getting upset about some lag once... Might have been BC2.

im actually completely opposite in games. Extremelly laid back, and when i start losing i just become more calm &focused. Fifa 13 almost had me killing everyone in the room, but ended up just not raging, and coming back from a 4-1 down to a 4-7 win smile.gif

Edit: oh, my best friend put his fist through his PSP when playing Monster Hunter 2 with me. The khezu got him so pissed off

Let's just say I had ignored my gf while playing vanila WoW to get a server first Ragnaros kill. Had my headphones on with music cranked so I couldn't hear her, the guys on vent did when she decided to get "creative" lol. Never lived that one down lol.

The worse for me was smashing up my Xbox controller when I was playing Marvel vs Capcom 3. I'm extremely competitive when I play online I don't know why. I've had a few occurrences where I've screamed on the to of my lungs. But when I play side my side with someone at a tournament or casual play, I'm fine and glad to meet people who are skilled. Offline I welcome getting my butt handed to me. But online it is war. lol

Emerald weapon in ffVII made me rage badly, along with the dungeon bosses in ffx-2. The basilisk one, stoned me even though i was wearing ribbons and the whole group was Death knights that were immune to that stuff..
