What is the DUMBEST thing you've SEEN somone do with a console?

[One Seven One]

A former friend of mine's exact words.
"Oh the PS2 will still run the game if I take the disk out while it's going, don't worry"
He's an idiot..

 

[Iwata]

A moron I know pulled out the entire insides of his PS2 in one swift pull trying to un-mod it. Another reason why I hate tampering with consoles.

All I could think of while watching that was what a waste of ammo. Surely they've got better things to use it on.

OT: I accidentally dropped my xbox 360 right after getting it refurbished. Luckily it still had the foam around it. Also I wasn't there to witness this but a friend of mine's little brother poured juice into the cartridge slot on his n64.

Playing the Orange Box on it... HEYOOO
xD

 

[Nagisa94]

Play it

I love the Orange Box, but the console version, specifically the 360 version I thought was just terrible. This may or may not be due to the fact that I am a PC gamer :3

Place a PS2 Slim standing vertically on top of a very tall and narrow TV. I told him in wouldn't be good.

I had a stoned cousin empty an entire 2 liter of cola into my PSOne once. He then put it away like nothing ever happened. Didn't attempt to dry it out, clean it off, unplug it, remove the game disc, nothing. I wasn't home when it happened, I was at work. I didn't even know anything was amiss till about 7 hours later when I got home.

And then he acted the victim when I booted him to the curb.

WHY did he do this STUPID thing?

Well, he was stoned. He was apparently drinking straight from the bottle and accidentally knocked it over while reaching for it. He claims he was so mesmerized by watching it pour out, it never dawned on him to pick it up. He then claimed he put it away wet because he didn't want to damage the lens on the reader by wiping it dry.

Yeah, I wasn't sad to see him go. On a lighter note, he's currently serving a sentence for stealing cars. I occasionally send a carton of cigarettes to his cellmates. In return, they show him some love.

*rubs hands in evil mastermind manner* Revenge is good.

This one douche that keeps coming over and taking over my room and 360 came over with Halo Reach (a game I could care less about)

so ... does that mean you like the game?
because you implied you don't by finding it hilarious
and i'm slightly confused by it

No, I hate Halo, and CoD... TRIBES AND PAINKILLER FOR EVER!
*ahem*
sorry

I just like other shooters then the 2 big 360 ones

(I also like valve shooters)

My younger brother started punching & throwing crap at my 360 (while he was screaming & crying) when it wouldn't connect to XBL once. Turned out the wire to connect it to XBL wasn't connected, so I don't see how his method would have worked nor how that would be beneficial to the 360 period.

ah right i see
just you said you could care less
which means you must care at least a bit
my apologies for misunderstanding

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

For me, I haven't seen anything particularly stupid... kinda sad.

 

[WOPR]

It's not a console, but I saw a TV programme where they threw a PC off of a balcony 4 stories up just to see if it'd be cheaper to buy a new one or try and salvage it.

WHY?!

Not as bad as this one dude that called me for tech support

Dude: "Hey stephen? My computers cup-holder broke"
Me: "What? cup-holder WHAT?!"
Dude: "Yeah you know, you press that button and the cup holder pops out? I put my coke in it and the thing broke off the cheap POS"
Me "Uhh..."
Dude: "So do you think I can get a refund for my computer? I'm thinking of sueing staples for this for selling a faulty system"
Me: "You... thats... MY GOD MAN! HOW STUPID ARE YOU!? THAT'S A CD-ROM DRIVE NOT A CUP HOLDER! YOU PUT CD'S/VIDEOGAMES IN IT SO THE COMPUTER CAN READ THEM!!!"
Dude: "You don't need to be a dick about it! HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW! I'M NOT AN UBER GEEK LIKE YOU!"

(you can figure out the rest of the conversation)

OT: Someone tried to get the water out of a DS by microwaving it. Didn't think that it would heat up the plastic, just the water

I loved working in a game retailer

 

[WOPR]

I saw a video once where two guys waited in a queue on PS3 launch day and bought a console, just to go outside and smash it in front of the people still in the queue. Idiots with more money than sense in my book

I saw the football team breaking an iPhone on launch day just because they won state and wanted something to do with the money the school gave them

so who's the bigger idiot?
the players who wasted money because they don't know it's value
or the school that gave it to them first rather then, oh say... MY VIDEOGAME DESIGN/ROBOTICS CLASSES!?
