Anyone else here throw controllers?

I think I've chucked a pad down on my bed or whatever, but never at anything/one that would cause damage. My brother has been know to pad-throw however.
 
Yup - 2 pads have lost their lives :(

1 during a game of Forza 2 - the AI cheats too much. attempt 7534 of a race got me infuriated, flung the controller at the sofa, missed but got the hard floor instead. dead analogue stick :(

1 during COD4, Heat. :mad:
 
Only time I've ever thrown a controller was when I first got Dead or Alive and got to the last boss, tried about 14 times to beat her.

Picked the controller up, lobbed it at the wall, picked it up again then lobbed it as hard as I could on the floor. And proceeded to stamp on it

My anger level was rising with each defeat, and in the end I just exploded :/

Needless to say, I needed a new controller
 
Not controllers but I used to smack my keyboard now and then on World of Warcraft during stressful PVP moments. (Or getting killed in PVP by a complete **** from the forums)
 
Never.

I am in total zen with my mind and body. Never would I let my anger be ruled by a collection of binary instructions.

Otogi made me break my last remaining Duke controller. It took me months to hunt down another one. It was the battle against the two fast skittering creatures. Managed to do it in the end.
 
I was going to come in here saying you bunch of weirdo's throwing your controllers about, then I realised I've done the same whilst playing PES6 :o

Still on my original wireless controllers from dec '05 though.
 
When i was younger i broke several ps controllers(those things are indestructible, must have smashed them dozens of times). I have also headbutted a gameboy and smashed the screen(when i was 7 something, the gb wasnt mine :o) and put a hole in a door.The door being the most recent thing.

That was a few years back, i dont really lose my temper much now but when im stuck on a point in a game i still refuse to turn it off and just keep replaying till i get past it. Fortunately i dont play games as much as i used to so there's less reason to get ****** *** in the first place
 
Never threw, but raised it above my shoulder and almost have. My new dualshock 3 almost went on a flight the day I got it due to getting annoyed with heavenly sword.
 
When I was a young un , I must have broke 5 - 10 SNES controllers when playing SFII or f zero he he.

my PS3 one has come close though..........

On a side note the dual shock 3 pads are they wired or wireless

Does anyone else here throw controllers? I have just thrown my PS3 controller in a fit of rage during a burnout race as I wrecked just before the finish line in a race to the wind farm. :o The controller is not broken but I can hear stuff rattling inside. I need more self control :)

Ever thought about buying a dummy? Then you could throw that when you have a tantrum instead :p

Wireless i presume, i cant see why they would remove it if the six axis already has it
 
I have smashed about 3 PS2 controllers, 2 Xbox 360 controller and I have thrown my GH2 guitar as well (didn't break though)

One time, when playing PES5 on PC with my PS2 controller, I swung the controller by the cord and launched it into the wall. It basically exploded.

I have also smashed CD cases with a golf club because of games before. One time I hit the bed with a golf club and it broke the club in half.

I have also smashed things when I was younger playing CHampionship Manager

This is all down to games. I am not like this at all at any other time. I know people will say "stop playing games if they make you so angry", but deep down, I enjoy them :)
 
Tekken drives me into a steaming rage whenever I get to the fnial boss, but I usually end up beating something soft nearby like a cusion and shouting obscenities as if the boss was a real person. Other games to get me wonud up are Burnout Revenge and Dead or Alive :mad:

I don't remember ever throwing my controller as it's always ni the back of my mind that I'll just have to buy a new one and I'm a self-admitted perfectionist when it comes to keeping things clean and looking new.
 
I haven't smashed or thrown my controller, but I often start shouting at the screen. My mate said I sound like that angry german kid at times :p
