Frustration at games

What is the stupidest thing you've ever done after being frustrated at a game and what game was it? [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

My stupidest thing was this morning when i was playing Final Fantasy X. i was racing on the chocobos and not doing well. i got really annoyed and to venty my anger i hit the floor. it hurt. alot. it almost felt like i'd broken it. i was fine in the end though. stupidest thing is i'll probably do it again.

Hrmm, the time In Diablo 2 i was dueling my lvl 97 nova sorceress who had my best items on. I had forgotten to sell some stuff from my inventory, so it was full. When u die with a full inventory, all your items fly off your body for everyone to take. Well this Amazon managed to kill me...bye bye SoJs and my Tal Rashas set....i kicked a wall, ripping my pinky toenail off, then screamed and cried while i proceeded to thrash my room. I never dueled again, needless to say...a few months later doing tons of trades and MF runs i got my stolen stuff back....damn that Amazon...

I have smashed a keyboard in sheer fustration - keys flying all over the room. [img]graemlins/madatpc2.gif[/img]

I managed to put all the keys back in place - but for some reason the keyboard didn't work very well afterwards

These days I walk over to my bad and hit the pillow or scream really loudly [img]graemlins/scream.gif[/img]

I was playing Dark Alliance on the Playstation, and I came to a bit where you have to time your jumping to get across a ravine with lots of stones, but if you land on the stones slightly wrong, you drop and die. I must have done this 50 times, swearing slightly at the beginning, until after the 50th time I was screaming at the TV and calling it everything under the sun. I chucked the controller over to one side of the room and kicked the table by the side of me. Then stomped upstairs muttering how unfair the game was.

My boyfriend just sat there and laughed at me and then I felt silly, but I had the window open and the neighbours must have thought they lived next to a nutter!!!!

Funny though, after throwing all my toys out of the pram on that occasion, I came downstairs and tried once more - and I bloody did it, straight off, no problem..... amazing what a fit of temper will do!!

I have punched the computer monitor numerous times when I'm frustrated with games. This is the third monitor I'm using now. The first two fell into the floor and the screen was smashed when I pucnhed it in frustration.

I suppose crying over losing your Character in a game is pretty stupid... so um yeah that's about it for me, I don't get mad... physically....
