Has any game ever made you break your controller?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
decathlon, summer olympics and ... olympics have broken (ok, made me break) my joysticks when i was a teenager, lately controllers tend to disintegrate over time and use without any effort, like the rubber analog sticks of my ps4, luckily there are third party pads you can put over these... :D
Just from normal play, Resogun is the game that destroys my thumb grips. They get shredded to pieces. Had to buy a bag of replacements.
A few months ago my friend came over to play Sniper Elite 3, and he has a huge temper. Even though he loved the game, he got frustrated when he died and threw it at the ground. That broke the R1 & R2 buttons and made it practically useless. Followed by a lot of apologizing afterwards. The PS4 controllers are so fragile.
I've never broke a controller, but I squeeze the little sonz a bchs. I had to replace my PS3 controller because of Gran Turismo 5. The HOURS of driving wore down the casing next to the left joystick. I haven't broke one out of anger yet. I WILL. >:C
Destiny...but not because of anger. I don't like using the triggers (probably because the ps3 ones were terrible) so I switched them with L1 and R1, and now R1 is starting to stick. I don't think it was designed to handle that amount of stress.
And I have never thrown a controller in anger. I have on the other hand punched the crap out of a pillow or my leg.
I never understood how people could be so careless as to throw their controllers and break them. If it breaks, that's like $60 down the toilet. I've never been that angry.
I once actually bit one of my ps3 controllers, there's an indentation on it now, the left handle. Only raging thing I*ve ever done whilst playing a game... and I'm a 31yo adult. Think the game was resident evil 5 and it frustrated me to no end, if i remember correctly.
