Plus leave us a comment down below with how you calm yourself down so you don't rage quit.
While you ponder that lets jump into today's list of the Top 10 Video Game Moments That
Made Gamers Break Their Console
#10 COD 1v1 Playing a split screen game with someone is
like playing with fire, you know you shouldn't do it but man is it fun.
Whether its playing against someone online or with a friend this kind of game mode can
become quite lethal depending on how skilled the other person is.
What we would never recommend doing is playing with your significant other.
If there are already any issues in the relationship bubbling at the surface we highly doubt a
game of 1v1 on Rust is going to solve your problems.
Its probably just going to end up like this.
#9 The Blue Shell Mario Kart is a game designed for casual video
gamers, people who are largely not trying to play on a competitive level but still enjoy
gaming.
Its certainly a fun game for parties as everyone chooses their favorite Nintendo character
and race each other to the finish.
There are various weapons that you can pick up while racing but perhaps the one that angers
people the most is the blue shell.
The blue shell exists for the sole purpose of sneaking up on the player in first place
and stunting their lead giving those in dead last a moment to close the gap.
Its a fair element of the game that certainly helps level the playing field and if you're
lucky enough to launch it while the second place racer is close to first you can get
two birds with one shell.
For the most part this isnt that frustrating, but if you're part of the 5 percent that play
Mario Kart competitively than this shell could feel like your world is shattering before
your very eyes.
#8 The Driver Tutorial Driver was an action driving video game where
you play as an NYPD officer and former racing driver sent undercover to discover the intentions
of a local crime syndicate.
Just like most games there is an opening tutorial that they put you through to understand every
maneuver the game has to offer.
However for many players this opening tutorial was what nightmares were made of.
For starters you have 60 seconds to make it through 9 key driving maneuvers which even
for the most talented of drivers could be a frustrating time crunch to work with.
Even if all of these lessons will greatly improve how you play the rest of the game
that didn't stop gamers from rage quitting before the game had even commenced.
#7 The Library The first Halo game was absolute gold and
still stands as a ground-breaking console first person shooter.
Although when it came to the insanely difficult mission in The Library it became a console
breaking game real fast.
This mission is now infamous amongst gamers as one of the most frustrating levels in the
entire series to date.
Not only do you have to fight your way through multiple corridors which look so similar you'll
feel like youre going insane, but you are also pitted against an army of the Flood.
Soo good luck with that.
#6 The Dam The 1989 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles side-scroller
for the NES was just one long rage inducing video game.
Especially when players reached the level called The Dam, they were screaming much more
than just the word Damn.
It is constantly referred to as one of the most difficult video games the NES has ever
released.
The level called The Dam could also be attributed to the rise in gamers collectively hating
any level that took place underwater.
Like some sort of strange gamer PTSD.
They throw you off first with different controls for being under water, attack you with electric
seaweed and on top of that present you with the challenge of defusing eight bombs within
two minutes.
I bet if you were to pop in this game on anyones NES this would be the last save point for
sure.
#5 Escorting Natalya Anytime you have to escort someone for a mission
thats enough to make you want to stop playing.
Usually the person you are assisting is injured or completely helpless, but for Goldeneye
007 you're guarding Natalya as shes hacking things.
So at least shes able bodied, but having to protect her from dying otherwise the entire
mission goes down the drain can be extremely frustrating.
The real issue stems from her characters lack of self-awareness.
As you're attempting to protect her, Natalya will just straight up run in front of bullets,
both yours and the oncoming attackers.
As great as this game was we would be hard pressed to find anyone who didn't want to
break their N64 upon having to play this mission.
#4 Supply Lines The mission supply lines in Grand Theft Auto
4 is regarded as one of the most painfully frustrating missions in the series to date.
Thank goodness its listed as an optional mission, but for those hustlers out there that long
for the 100 percent completion of the game it caused plenty of broken consoles.
The mission involved CJ piloting Zeros miniature plane with the express purpose of taking out
five of the enemies couriers and then taking the plane safely back to Zeros place.
The frustration builds fast because the plane has a terribly low fuel limit and on top of
that most players run out of weaponry causing them to lose every time.
This in-turn means you have to be extremely efficient at utilizing every resource to take
down your enemies.
The worst part is the reward isn't really worth it and if you've come so far in the
game to just end up destroying the very thing you love.
#3 Through Fire and Flames
When Guitar Hero dropped everyone believed that their expert playing skills would transfer
over to actually playing guitar, which sadly couldn't be further from the truth.
I mean it was a great PR move to move copies of the game, but what it also did was give
rage quit gamers a new piece of equipment they could smash when they lose.
The most notoriously difficult songs to play on the first Guitar Hero track as Dragonforces
through fire and flames.
For those who enjoy self-inflicted punishment expert mode on this song was right up their
alley.
Even the most dedicated of players would struggle through the 7 minute song.
Hand cramps aside for many this song felt like a complete slap in the face to any ego
they may have established with completing other songs.
#2 The Slippery Climb Crash Bandicoot was a simple game meant to
be for people of all ages, well mainly kids which really makes you scratch your noggin
when getting to the Slippery Climb level.
How sadistic were these developers to create such a difficult area of the game that as
a whole was meant for children.
The level consists of moving platforms, perfectly timed leaps and if you didn't time those properly
you almost always just slid off the ledge forcing you to restart.
This stage would push gamers into one of two categories.
Either they quit all together or spent hours trying to develop some divine power to make
it through.
Needless to say many consoles were harmed in the playing of The Slippery Climb.
#1 The Water Temple
And here you thought that we would make it through this list without another frustrating
water level.
The game Legend of Zelda Ocarina of time was a masterpiece in many ways, but it wouldnt
be such a great game if the devs didn't throw us a curveball.
That curveball was the Water Temple.
Even the name gives me anxiety.
The Water Temple much like The Dam in the Ninja Turtles game also offers up this sluggish
underwater controls coupled with repetitive locations and annoying as all hell enemies.
The amount of stress and anger this multi-hour level induces is enough for many to just stop
playing the game all together.
Even if you make it all the way through you wont even want to play video games for at
least a few days.
And that has been the Top 10 Video Game Moments That Made Gamers Break Their Console.
