Have you ever gotten so angry when playing that you've broken a controller?

Not at all. However, the Xbox 360 controller starts breaking within a maximum of 2 years of regular gaming usage.

Me not yet. I normally don't get angry at games(just frustrated).
My older brother has broken tons of the joy sticks on controllers because he smacks them when he gets angry(REAL ANGRY).

I've never purposefully broken a controller while playing. I have, however, had a joystick break on me when I was playing Black Ops before the kids got online and ruined the online gameplay.

I have been angry at a controller, and to be honest I really regret it.
It was a good controller, RIP :(

I get a bit angry and frustrated, and then I mess up the joysticks. I suppose this isn't exactly a unheard of thing either, I know a lot of my friends do it too. I've never actually broken any part of the controller or controls by accident or on purpose - they're pretty hardy.

I have never broken a controller out of anger, but my friend was using my custom made controller I made, and ended up pressing so hard on the thumbstick that he ripped the plastic part off of it in an unfixable way >.>

I can't say that I have broken one out of anger, but I have had my friend break one of mine because he sat on it >.>

Yes, i got angry and threw my control at the wall haha. I don't remember exactly what game i was playing, but it was probably call of duty. I always end up raging over stupid kills or i have raged at not being able too pass something in campaign. I have learned too control my raging since then although.

I couldn't even begin to tell you how many controllers I have broken over the years across platforms. Just two weeks ago I repaired a hole in my drywall from throwing a controller. The controller itself has a little plastic jingle going on it right now but doesn't seem to be effected game play wise.

I am getting better, for awhile I was pretty bad with throwing them around. :start:

I've never been angry enough to brake a controller. Games can get frustrating at times but never have I been angry enough to brake, throw, kick etc the controller or anything. This sounds like the type of thing my brother is likely to do. :P
