I was playing through KZ2 just now and I was doing what I usually do when I'm doing bad in a game. You know, yell at the tv, threaten to use the game manual as toilet paper. That stuff. I do this a lot with games(especially at the MGS games) and while I enjoy MGS and KZ2 I can't help it to yell and sometimes scream at the tv when I'm doing bad. Any one else do this while playing, or is it just me?

Yea I get angry too, the best way to cool me down easily is to think of some of the vids on youtube where kids get pissed at when playing a video game and look like total idiots. I even laugh sometimes when I'm pissed it can get so funny for me.

I'm playing KZ2 on veteran and I have got to a few points where I want to punch a wall. One part especially when I ran into 3 guys with rocket launchers and I had to kill everyone in the area, I mean they would nail me from across the location

I usually don't get angry while playing video games. It's been a while since I became pissed off. The final boss in Metal Gear Solid 3 got me real ticked off. I slammed my controller after trying to beat that boss for like an hour. The final boss is a huge pain in the ass.

Yeah, I really lose my rag at times and kind of wish I could control myself a bit better... being an adult and everything.

Fighting games are the worst for me though. There is no worse feeling than trying to hit your opponent by any means necessary and falling victim to a counter or reversal time and time again. Just thinking about it makes me mad. :P

Playing Killzone 2 on veteran right now...

It's taken me 5x as long to reach 1/2 way than it did for me to beat the game on Elite. I don't even want to know how long it's gonna take me on the last boss on Veteran...that's gonna take me 100+ deaths and 5+ hours.

No, I'm usally pretty calm I think. Just don't take them so seriously. My best friend though freaks the f*** out whenever the slightest thing doesn't happen in his favor though, I swear to god you could hear him down the block.

Sometimes.. but not like rage enducingly mad, when I lose to a cheap strategy in like a fighting game, which is a very rare occurence, I get peeved, but then I can just beat the person the next match, so I don't feel so bad. Never rage quit, thats way too low. But yes, broken gameplay elements, that prevent me from playing the game properly, make me angry as well, a broken camera, slippery controls, anything like that, blatant programming error.

Only in 2D fighting games. I feel like a god when i'm playing KOF with people with less experiance. But I can never win all the time.... So it's like falling from a high place. Never throw tantrums though.

Ya, some people care too much about their rank and position, I take whatever I get as a sort of badge of honor, to show how good I am, not to show how well I was able to maintain a high score by quitting every time someone beat me... its not like having high points in any game would lead do you benefiting in life, its even worse when you end up losing while having such a high score.. cause you can't always rage quit...

When I was younger I would get mad at games, but then I realised how stupid it was. When you're angry you can't think or play worth a damn.

So true, so true, I could lose at something like a dozen times or more in a row.. because I was getting more angry each time I lost, as soon as I calmed down, it becomes easy... so thats why I avoid getting angry now. :P

only on really competitive multiplayer games, i never get mad on single player, just MP games like COD (not so much now though) but gears 2 when i get killed by a lancer i let the person know how i feel after, on cod i used to get annoyed when i was spawn killed (game has awful spawns) but not anymore (lost interest in it) also killzone 2 online.. only thing that slightly irritates me are the rocket launcher noobs!

I did that once in SFIV, but that was accompanied with the huge lag on my opponent's part, on top of the he's-kicking-my-butt part.

If I'm getting my *** handed to me, than I'll yell and get mad. I swear, World at War has the worst hit detection ever! I'm trying to get the Apeture Sight for the Thompson (which is a fairly strong weapon, and I have Stopping Power equipped) and no matter how many bullets I put in the person, they'll still get me? How, I ask, how?!

I get really frustrated when I lagging or the person/people I'm playing is lagging online and when I clearly shoot them I don't get any points for it. I also hate when I kill someone and they kill me like 2 seconds after they're already dead because of lag. Also I HATE dying from grenades in any game. I get so pissed.

Violently angry? Never, really. But I swear. A lot. Like, so much that if they censored me you'd just hear a loud string of beeps with no words in between for a good hour or so.
