    Nah, I play games to relax and have fun. If I'm truly frustrated or angry, I know this is not the game for me. Plus, I often have a few beers while playing, which takes the edge off.

    Forgot to mention this was like 10 years ago (if you haven't got it from the CRT). Now I just don't play multy often and when I do, I don't mind loosing, just enjoy it. An yeah never sit in front of the PC/TV/PS3 without a beer and may be a herb :beer:

    Ive tried crushing my mouse with my hand at times, as if I was wearing some sort of power claw, luckily it's just mouse.

    Same for me. I used to get more pissed when I was getting pwned, but lately I just enjoy it more than become game enraged. Games like the new ROTT have a way of making the multi-player fun all around, vs some of the more modern warfare type of games that tend to be taken seriously. Team DM always adds some seriousness, because no one wants to take a rocket to the head for their team lol

    No.

    If you have, seek help! A sane person would never do such a thing! ;)

    On the other hand, destroying (old) hardware for fun.... :D

    Not computer related, I once threw my cell phone in the river in a drunken rage. I don't even remember why anymore. I once lightly threw my old electric guitar on asfalt, I was pretty damn surprised, because it just split in half. Turns out this guitar was made of like a ****ty wood, that had termites chewing on it. Those damn chinese guitar smiths... :D

    PS3 controller, was swapping the control buttons for new ones, went to put it back together and it just would not clip back together. Spent a good twenty minutes trying to work out what was stopping it from going back together and just couldn't see anything ended up rage squashing the two halves together which resulted in one of the shoulder bumpers getting torn off the ribbon cable after that I just gave up and bought a new one.

    Yep, I had an Nvidia 680i SLi motherboard back in the Core 2 days and could I get that damn thing to overclock my Q6600 G0, could I heck!!

    It simply would not move from stock 2.4GHz I got so mad I took the CPU out and accidentally got some thermal paste on the socket pins in the motherboard (AS5 as well) and I got so mad in frustration I took a screw driver to the pins and stabbed them into hell!!!

    Next day I brought a £150 Asus P5K Premium Wi-Fi AP motherboard (which is still in my girl friends PC) and with a few clicks I got my Q6600 G0 rock solid stable at 3.6GHz!!!!

    Safe to say that Nvidia motherboard's were complete and utter trash! Maybe the reason why they stopped making them!
