Anyone else here throw controllers?

I used to when playing PS2..

not done it for ages, and when I do i make sure it lands on something soft like the bed lol
 
I did a Pete Townsend with my old guitar hero 1 guitar , i broke the whammy bar mid song got stressed slammed it on the floor, thought it was cool then proceeded to smash it up totally on the wooden floor the Who stylee. ROCK N ROLL !!!! :D
Killed a few old joysticks on my Speccy playing Daley Thompsons decathlon and broke my Atari ST keyboard in frustration by slamming my hand on it, managed to fix it though.
 
Oh dear where do I start! I've brocken a PC monitor by repeatidly punching it over a period of months. I've broken an Amiga by smashinging it with a massive pair of metal scisssors. And several Joy Sticks/Pads playing SWOS. They were the worse as I used to smash them across my knee. Ended up with trip to the docs, where I explained that I had hurt my knee in a fall. :eek:

Now a days i'm a lot more controlled and a quick stream and a old fashioned shake of the fist does the trick!
 
I guess so. :)
i'm not so sure, it seems like you took a cheap shot at folk. decent minded people have some repect for others when they have something to say.

it's good that people can be talk about such things, perhaps someone will say what changed them and it'll have an effect on someone else.. that would be a good thing wouldn't it but that won't happen with trolling posts.

Yup, a shot at adults unstable enough to start throwing things and getting enraged over a video game.

Not exactly a cheap shot though, they need to sort themselves out.
 
Yea broke my first Ps3 pad during a particularly infuriating game of Pes last night. They don't make em like they used to, the ps2 pad was indestructable, literally used to jump and stamp on it as hard as i could, and thats about 13 stone of bloke, yet it never broke and was fine for years.

Now they just fall apart, broke my first 360 pad playing GOW, just chucked it and it smashed to bits, didn't even throw it that hard.
 
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 :)

I got really annoyed in Steel Battalion one time and ...

just kidding!

CD
 
It would be interesting to know the average age of the enraged controller thrower. Also to know wether they live with parents and don't have to buy the replacements themselves or not.

Just curious!
