Your most memorable ragequit

My group plays cards at lunch. We were tired of poker, and one kid's coca cola cards that had santa on them, so another kid brings in a deck, and we play BS. He keeps calling us out, and getting it right. Eventually, We all think he's physic or something. I think he's cheating somehow. I look at the back of the cards, and look over everything carefully. I notice a little red line that dosn't fit the pattern. that is differnt base on the card's value.

Cue "F this shit! If this was Vegas you'd be shot!"

Thread long dead, let me kick you from the depths of forgotten pages.

I fought a Minimize Clefairy once. All that needs to be said.

I gave up on Tomb Raider when I couldn't get Lara Croft to go where I wanted to. It was probably my fault, as it was my first real exposure to that kind of game on the PS One.

Playing FFX. After much cursing at the screen and cries of "WHAT THE FUCK?!?! THERE IS NO WAY!!! HOW THE FUCK DO YOU WANT ME TO DO THIS GAME?!?!?", I finally beat the Chocobo Race and Butterfly hunt. I dont even try the dodging 200 lightning bolts cause fuck that noise, that's legit imposible.

Start a new game so I can try a playthrough with basically min-maxed sphere grid.

Accidentally write over the file where I beat those.

Promptly throw PS 2 with game in it out window.

Ooh, yes, that'd be my Nuzlocke run for Pearl. Lost my starter (a Grotle named Chruchill) to a Sudowoodo in the milk bar outside Solaceon Town. I'd brought it down to red health, and it landed a crit with Flail. I stopped playing for about two weeks after that.

If you've ever played the Wii version of Punch Out, then you've seen Soda Popinski, right? In exhibition mode, there's a challenge to TKO him with 1:11 on the clock or more.

You would not BELIEVE the screaming. Even worse, every single guide appears to have a different theory on how to beat it.

The Force Unleashed. My god The Force fucking Unleashed. Anyone who knows the game knows the level I'm referring to. I spent days wailing on that bitch before my most epic ragequit ever, in which I literally just decided that this shit was no longer going to fly and took the disc back to Gamestop for a refund.

No matter what the ending to the game may have been, it was not worth that level.

Final Fantasy XIII was the source of many. Mainly Barthandelus battles, but also Orphan's final battle. The kicker is that they wouldn't let you save in between the final battle with Bart and the final battle with Orphan.

Yay! I killed Flamelurker, the Dragon God, and Penetrator all in the same session! I've got 80,000 plus Microts to spend on leveling and weapon repa-

YOU DIED.

-_-

Okay, okay, I'll just run on back and fetch my souls and cut my losses and I have plenty of Phoenix Downs left so I'll just resurre-

-gutted by skeleton samurai-

>_<

I gave up at Taejin's Tower. In all fairness, my party could've been better leveled and Paradigms have long aggravated me, but still, after all the crap I'd gone through in that game, ascending a giant PUZZLE tower with an inevitable fal'cie boss fight awaiting me at the top was grinding on my nerves.

I was already getting bored of Final Fantasy XII for resembling a test of patience more than a game, but then the game decided to randomly drop eight flans on me in a really small room. This happened in the longest, most devoid of save points dungeon ever.

I've seen quite a few rage quits in Yu-Gi-Oh tournaments (btw, they call it a "scoop" there) and I've had a few, not only because of players with unbalanced decks, but because of players with unbalanced decks who are sore losers.

Here's one delightful player I remember. He was using Lightsworn. I went first, set a card, and played a monster (I don't even remember what the monster was.) He asked me if the set card was Mirror Force.

Well, it was, but I didn't answer him. (There's no rule that says you have to, after all.) So proceeds to swarm the field like most Lightsworn players do, declare an attack, and, boom.

Then he gets angry and cries foul because I didn't answer him when he asked.

Honestly, who was in the wrong here? I didn't bother to wait for round two. I called him an idiot and left.

I about drove myself crazy trying to finish several of the New Game Plus levels in Super Mario Advance (wherein you have to find two Yoshi eggs in a level then finish without losing a life or you start over again), then came level 4-1 which I've always had some trouble with. I lost a life in the second section of said level. Now this wouldn't be so bad if I could simply go back and retrieve those Yoshi Eggs...but you fly into the second area on a rocket and you can't go back to the first section. I still haven't gotten those eggs because the level annoys me so much.

Final Fantasy VIII, where I repeatedly died on Sorceress Adel at the beginning of Disc 4. I felt I was never going to win, so I went, "I quit." I haven't played it ever since.

Team Fortress 2 Just a few days ago, for me. There was a god-tier scout player on the other team that seemed to go for me and me only no matter what (the bastard would camp until my respawn timer completed). Chalked it up at first as just someone farming kills, but he then appeared on three separate servers, on three separate gametypes on the enemy team doing the same goddamn thing.

Minecraft : Pretty much every time I die in survival to lava, especially if I had diamond gear on me.

I don't quit in a primal burst of rage per se, I just set the damned thing down and leave it alone for an few days...or weeks if it's unlucky enough...

Kingdom Hearts 2.5. Xaldin's Data Battle comboed me to death after I got him down to his LAST bar of health. I was very pissed.

When i first played FFX when I was a teenager, I did end up Rage quitting that Lightning Challenge. I finally managed to beat it last year with that HD Remaster.

What did they change for it?

Once when I was playing Minecraft, I was exploring the contents of a mine when I find a pitch-black pit. When I looked around inside to see if there was at least lava to light the room up, I see 2 purple eyes for a millisecond. When I turned around, an Enderman knocked me into the pit, killing me instantly...Right before a Creeper exploded and destroyed my stuff. Among it, a diamond pickaxe (which was the only diamond I'd found in the week I played that world). It took me weeks to pick the game back up. -I now spend almost all my time in the End submerging it.

Ornstein and smough

im not gonna enter in details but because of them i never played the game for a whole years

after that i killed them

after i played dark souls 2 on new game plus 7 times that it

I officially have a Rage Quit for the ages. (Well, that's an exaggeration, but then again...I've posted this before elsewhere on here but then this thread appeared.)

I was playing Pokemon Rumble World and had spent the entire day trying (and failing) to complete the "Protect Diancie" mission. I would often fail spectacularly or come very close only to lose. Making something like 10 attempts at clearing it over the day. It was about 12:30am that night and I was playing the mission again, and this time, I was getting really close to winning. I still wound up KO'd, but hey, I still had Poke-Diamonds left, and the Absol's HP was almost out. I can do this! I'll finally I'll get this @%#%(@~! level over with...and I accidentally hit the quit button by mistake.

What happened next...well, let's just say that I wound up waking up everyone else in the house and I'm not allowed to play video games in bed anymore. I was so mad (about losing the level yet again, not the new rule) I almost deleted the game off my 2DS on the spot. Certain games seem to bring out the worst in me.

Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. On hard mode I almost (like 2 or 3 shots) had the Boost Guardian finished off when I got the in-game cutscene when it shifts from blob to its normal form. Before I got got control back it immediately attacked and killed me, there was nothing I could have done, I was standing in the wrong place. I remember breaking the controller, or at least the C-Stick, that day.

Had a truly epic one for NBA 2K. Why this of all games? Because of the facial scan tech. Apparently you can scan your face into the game. I had been trying for weeks to do so, and thought after much thought and research I'd finally get it to do so. I had tried it in broad daylight, powerful lights overhead, studio lights in the face, against a white background. It would not even detect my face, much less produce decent results. I got so mad I smashed the TV stand, three the lights, tore the bed apart, kicked in the bath and couch for the background, and am currently on the biggest smoking drinking binge since the How I Met Your Mother finale.

0_o Interesting...?

I remember when I fucking lost it when I lost aganist the Subway Masters in Pokemon Black 2.

I was THIS CLOSE TO FINISHING IT. Then I lost. Where was I? Sitting right in front of a wall in my bendy/long school bus in the morning.

Guess what happened next? I screamed and kicked the wall so hard, that I MADE A HUGE HOLE IN THE FUCKING BUS.

Luckily, I (and to a lesser or greater extent, my parents) didn't need to pay for the damage due to my 'special needs' (you do realise at this point that I have Autism and Aspergers, right?).

For once, I was a Karma Houdini. But I regret losing to those guys.

A couple of days later, I beat them effortlessly for the 1st time. Yay.
