Top 5 "Made Me Mad" Pains when playing games

Category: Random Game: Default Posted on Oct 08, 2008 4:59 am


No matter you are a video gamer or a mmorpg addict, I think the following facts I list  must remind you of something just the same happened to you, right? Okay, I just post this article for fun, there must be other facts that i dont mention here, so leave me a comment if you think of something. Here we go.

Top 5 "Made Me Mad" Pains when playing games

1) BSOD (Blue screen of death)

You experienced this before didnt you? BSOD could easily piss you off, probably making you out of mind and behave as a psychopath  especially when you are playing games. Maybe at that time you are just going to get your loot, casting a debuff to your enemy, trading  with someone else or even flirting with a nice girl/guy, the screen pops up on Microsoft in a sudden, delare you can get a break now. You absolutely do nothing wrong, even Bill Gates knows it, anyways unfortunately you have no choice but to reboot your computer. You also have  to learn anger manaement so that you can get over the unreasonable accident to cool yourself before doing something bad to your keyboard or monitor...
Pain rate: ★★★★★

theres a  BSOD art here to share with u btw, i have to say, wow, it's so nice, haha.


 

2) Power Off

it happens just unexpectedly, your house gets murky in a single second and all your excitement and passion on games lose the  possibility to hang on so quickly that they brake inside your heart then explode from your mouth, like WHAT THE F*CK !!! You probably  dont know how to react to the emergency at frist, what you care is like, hey, have I saved my progress so far? Are you kidding im raiding  the instance!
Pain rate: ★★★★

3) Save loss

Another high rate of pain ever, especially for a video gamer. Each piece of the saves means a lot, it may be a milestone of your combos  record in a fighting game, it can be a memorable ending of an epic RPG game. No doubt Lost means shame to a hardcore gamer, the pain that you never regain a chance to go over your brilliant records again will bite you heart time by time, at least for a long period, it won't disappear...
Pain rate: ★★★★

4) "It's Time Now, Tom"

- It's time now, Tom
- Just a few seconds, Mom.
2 minutes later
- Tom?
- I'm coming-------(come on, where's the save spot!!)
3 minutes later
- You really don't want to piss me off, do you? (appears in front of the door)
- Just a few seconds....Oh, Ohh, Ohhh w...wait, Mom!! (powers get cut...)

Pain rate: ★★★★

5) ill buttons

These small errors exist sometime, it's no big deal to get fixed, you just repair the keyboard or joystick, even change a new one. But it  really drives you crazy when you get back from school or work, try to have fun, you find out there're some problems with your keyboard or  joystick, what you get is the endlessly unconfortable control of your gaming character. However we always ignore the reason why it  happens, even worse, we abreact the anger of unconfortable controlling again and again to josystick or keyboard, that is really a vicious circle..
Pain rate: ★★★

practice on patience and tolerance always helps in those situations. Realising that those things happen to everyone and that ur not the only one suffering such nuisances really does help. Besides, being aware that being angry at something which is such a miniscule thing compared to the big picture of your life, only disturbs ur peace of mind and does not make you happier in the end. As soon as you feel ur on the verge of blowing up, grasp that moment, make a big sigh if you have to and just say something like "oo well...shit happens life goes on XD". Not saying it is easy at the start, but trying and taking baby steps always helps :3.

Memory cards getting wiped sucks x.x  That and the BSOD or a well-timed "crash to desktop" can ruin your day...

The most tragical thing is data loss.
Especially when you've played Pokemon for what seems half of your life.
