Irritable Game Syndrome

[Bleeders]

Theirs is Larry David "curb your enthusiasm".

Mine is awesome - the last one was good but this one I adore

The aussie bloke was a good one I thought.

The guy from Wolf Creek ? Aye I liked that one too - I loved the last one (spitting image Maggie Thatcher with Hannibal mask and blowtorch).

This one's just cos the chef was me fav character from Ratatouille.

Weekly's a bit harsh

I remember beating you at Pro Evo Bleeders and you went so mental that you turned your mike off !!

Roddy had to sell GH2 because as he stands to play it whenever he fluffed it his door took a kicking - I don't think there's much of the bottom 1/4 of the door left !!!

I got so infuriated with CoD2 on Veteran I headnutted the pad and destroyed it (I did a similar thing back in the day with Halo on Legendary).

I had two red thumbstick marks on my forehead for ages.

One of my DaulShock pads started playing silly-buggers when I was playing Okami a few months back. As a result, I threw it against the nearest wall. Surprisingly, it still worked after that (though the R2 button is a bit loose).

I've had IGS since 2000 I reckon.

first time i walked in the water temple on ocarina of time for me, been irritable pretty much ever since .

Ahh, your mention of water just reminded me of one! The boss in the water level of Kameo worked me up into a near pad smashing frenzy! Actually the whole underwater controls in Kameo were awful. Luckily it isn't just me, my brother just got the game and he was agreeing with me about how good it was until he reached that point

[Roddie]

I looked up this IGS in my medical dictionary and there was a picture of F1 Championship Edition. It's not so great to spend ages on qualifying sessions just to get rammed out of the race on the first lap..

Do you ever have days where you finally have some time to play, you've got about 6 games on the go or more, but you can't be bothered...you just cannot be arsed. But you try anyway, because you know you won't get another chance like this

So you stick a game on, and EVERYTHING irritates you to the point where you are raging.

I often can't be arsed playing games to the point where even switching games I ordinarily love bore the hell out of me. I dunno I like the idea of having 6 games on the go at once though and suspect that, in part, is to blame for the rage you sometimes experience. Have you tried playing just the 1 game (2 at most) at a time?. Hopefully I don't sound pretentious when I say there's an element of truth in the old Buddhist saying "less is more".

I get this but for me I just put it down to being too tired/ill that day. I had it yesterday, Ive picked up yet another infection with my crap health and was feeling lousy but I wanted to play PGR4 on career. Id done really well day before so went and tried and arcade hit a wall, I couldnt concentrate as wasnt up to it so tried career and no joy. Got crabby and loaded about 6 dfferent games all varied (even GH3 demo) to try and put my mood to something other than bouncing off the walls but nowt worked. Saying that though nothing worked I tried watching a blueray nope couldnt conentrate, 24 season 5 where I left off nope even Jack teaching children how to split the atom couldnt get my jollys going.

In end I gave up took some pethadine watched some weird stuff happening on the wall as my infection kicked in and went to sleep and today I feel better lol

When I say I have six on the go, what I really mean is one or two seriously (PGR4 + Orange Box) and a few others I occasionally chuck on for a short burts (Pro Evo 2008, Fifa 08, etc).

That's virtually identical to me - not only the principle but the actual games you've listed!
