Your most memorable ragequit

Who's brave enough to admit to a moment that was less than proud and accomplished? Which game was it and what happened?

Mine was the first 'God of War' game. The bit almost right at the end where Kratos has to climb up the columns with the spinning rotating blades. After I finally climbed up the first column (an ordeal which generated a couple of ragequits in and of itself, and an intervening period where I didn't play the game for several days), and the camera moves up to reveal... the second column? I didn't even attempt a climb. I just turned the game off.

I still actually haven't finished the first God of War game.

You Dont Know Jack, telling the host "fuck you" three times as Gibberish Question "answers".

That's probably the only time I've ever had a game ragequit on me.

Majora's Mask.

-Get through Stone Tower Temple

-Go right to clock tower without bothering to save

-Get to fight with mask

-Keep dying

-Turn off game and realize I did not save

-Realize I have to do that whole damn temple over again

-FUCK DIS GAME

Fighting Barthandelus in Oerba.

>Die too many times
>Turn off PS 3
>Make disc smoothie
>Die of internal bleeding

I just completed two chapters of RE 4. Forgot the red jewel that goes in the beerstein. orz

I sold my Wii version of Twilight Princess after getting stuck at the second visit to the Water Temple. For some reason, I just didn't feel like looking up a strategy guide and just kind of flipped the game off. Sold it for a cool $30.

People ragequitting on me in PO... Oh the stories I could share...

Epic Mickey. After the umpteenth directionless fetch quest I said 'Ah, screw it' and stopped playing.

Two words, Nano Breaker.

I kept dying because of the sloppy controls and I died and died and died and...I CRACKED THE DISK IN HALF.

This fucking crap screwed my handle and my fingers.

I was playing Yoshi Topsy-Turvy on my DS phat, and something got me so angry that I threw my DS at the wall...

The hinges on the system broke, and I was left with a DS phat in two parts, never to recover. The game was fine, and I got a DS Lite a few months later, but I still have that poor DS phat...

Lets just say that the one time you're fully comboed out of ever doing anything ever is a perfectly legitimate reason to stop playing the Marvel Vs Capcom series forever.

If you won't, I will.

• Because I changed the weather
• Because I used Shell Smash
• Because haxrachi
• Before the match even starts

To those who don't play PO, ragequit is basically the standard way to win.

Super Paper Mario, reached the final floor on the Pit of 100 Trials. You know where this is going.

Mine is the standard Minecraft story. Playing single player hard core survival. Digging out my mine and find gravel. I dig through it thinking nothing of it until I hit one particular patch. Turns out it was one of those damned gravel caves that collapse the moment you touch it. Only I was on top of it. And the bottom was lava.

Diamond chest piece and sword, iron helmet leggings and boots, diamond pick, four stacks of coal, two of iron, like a quarter stack of gold, five or six diamonds, some lapiz, some redstone, my map, compass, clock, and misc supplies and cobble. Not only did I lose it all I lost the world as well.

Fuck. Dis. Shit. (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

It was three days before I played again.

... Wow.

I had an >100 hours long save of Pokemon Sapphire, the result of months playing (and I still kept doing so). One day a little cousin of mine came to my house and started playing without my permission, he chose New Game. You can figure out the rest... Now he doesn't even dare to get close to my games.

There was another one in Twilight Princess, I played 5 hours straight and only saved after I finished and left. When I came back I saw that the game didn't save at all, and I already went through an entire temple. I didn't touch that game again for an entire year.

Persona 2 Innocent Sin. I tried the second of the theater missions. Died on the next to last boss, after hours of play. Haven't picked up the game since.

Oh, Pokemon Sapphire. How did I forget my favourite memory of that game?

Chillin' in Victory Road. Grinding a new team for the E4. Lalalala random encounter...

...

HOLY SHIT, A SHINY HARIYAMA!!

Alright, just, uh... Keep calm. Let's whittle it down a bit...

|*hits it into the red*|

Sweet! Alright, so next turn, I'll just toss an Ultra Ball and try and...

"Hariyama used Whirlwind!"

...

...

...

FUCK YOU, GAME. FUCK YOU WITH A RUSTY SPOON!

This is not even a video game.

Played some Crazy Eights with friends in high school, but they used a rules variation I didn't, so I threw all the cards at them and yelled, "YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY!"

I was kind of an idiot in high school.

Seven years old. Failed at Super Mario Land so badly that I broke the Gameboy. With my forehead. Then threw the cartridge out. Parents are still embarrassed about that. Hey, if I can't laugh at myself...

Pokemon Blue. Managed to beat Sabrina with my underleveled Persian.

Didn't save the game.

Gameboy Color borked and reset itself.

Had to beat Sabrina again.

Rage Quit.

Eyedol from Killer Instinct on hardest mode, a hit point away from death and he manages to deplete my entire life bar with a single super combo. I know computers can do more damage in my game but that was beyond ridiculous.

Struggling with the battle system in Resonance Of Fate when I played for the first time. Took me forever to figure out how to do the stuff they asked me to do in the arena. I accidentally got into a battle afterward, and got killed before I had a chance to save.

After that, I got better at it, but the battles can still be pretty frustrating at times. I mean, whose brilliant idea was it to implement Critical Mode? You'll never have enough time to pick up four pieces and kill something before you get hit. If you can't kill something as soon as it starts, you're pretty much screwed.
