Games that have caused you to throw your controller

A fair few games.
Namely the CoD series. 12yr old brats that are miles better than you because you actually have a job to do, other than play CoD all day. What's worse is their voice.
Then there are the ones that resort to glitches and cheats to win.

Or just camping with the most overpowered gun in the game.
Usually, camping isn't a problem for me.. but when their entire team is camping in one area.. and my team continue to throw themselves at them in the most open areas like Lemmings. It gets rather frustrating.

Also, WoW made me Falcon Punch my first laptop.
It was already broken, my cousin knocked it on the floor a few weeks before and dropped the sofa wheel on it bouncing around. So I was attempting to play WoW only to have Ink leaking all over my screen and the screen itself half falling apart. I would've played on my Desktop but it was being fixed.
So.. I threw it up in the air and falcon punched it across the room.

ive only thrown my controller once, and that was the first time i ever played "Condemned". yeah i made the unfortunate mistake of playing with the lights off, in my home all alone. yeah when my cat jumped in my lap i lost all sense of self control, i thought that friggin cat was gonna murder me, so in self defence i used a controller.

Judge me if u want, but that ish was scary.

I've never actually thrown my controller but some games have made my very frustrated. These are car games; Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2 and Grand Turismo 4 (PS2).
You know what I'm talking about:
Screwing up just before the finish line after an hour long thumb-crushing race could bring me to tears.
"Tripping at the finish line", that kind of thing.

Def Jam: Fight for New York on the PS2. The first boss fight (I can't remember who it was). My L1 button never worked properly again after I slammed my controller into the ground.

So many to pick...

Probably Luigi's Purple Coins. I can't find a single sane person I know who can get that Star.

Oh yeah, and One Shot One Kill in CoD4. HOW IN FUCK'S NAME AM I SUPPOSED TO FEND OFF 6 WAVES OF ENEMIES AND FIND THE TIME OF DAY TO DODGE 90 BAJILLION GRENADES TOSSED AT ME?!

Same! - the only game I can actually recall getting that angry with. By the time I had got up to the first level in a'Whooping and a'Hollering (sp?) I knew it wasn't a game I would be playing for fun.

Off the top of my head, back when I was younger, I remember smashing one of my N64 controllers due to the water dungeon boss of LoZ:MM. That fucker was annoying...

Hoooo-hooo being as ill tempered as I am I have had a few bouts of controller destroying rage (one time I got so mad I actually tore a PS2 controller in half) but for the most part it's my PC games that get me mad (dropped connection, lag, people being a lot better then I am) and I end up leaving a fist sized dent in my wall

I'm mature enough these days so that when enraged I destroy less expensive things than my controllers.

Pencils are good.

Even then, it's only a bad day on Halo 3 online multiplayer that can really get me angry.

Need for Speed Underground many many times.
I've ranted on and on at sonic adventure dx.
Also any game (mainly fps, especially metroid for ds) where I become convince that a particular boss or obstacle is impossible to complete, this is combined with me yelling that the designers must be sadists and the game is clearly impossible to complete.
I also once broke my gba by smashing ti over my knee.
...

I am a very angry person.

I haven't thrown a Controller since my addiction to Guitar hero 3, when I made it too almost the end of Through the fire and Flames on Expert, only to have my power go out.

luckily, I didn't damage the controller, as when I threw it, instead of hitting a wall, it hit my brother.
