Every gamer has a breaking point. Sometimes that point ends with a rage quit, and other times it ends with a controller lodged in the TV. It depends on the gamer, and how close they were to the finish line before the blue shell came. Across shooters, RPGs, sports titles, and battle royales, certain scenarios have tested patience for years. These are the gaming situations that most frequently sent controllers flying.Jackal Snipers – Halo 2On higher difficulties, Jackal Snipers in Halo 2 could eliminate Master Chief in a single shot, often before you even spotted the red glint. Legendary runs were notorious for sudden deaths that forced full checkpoint restarts.cnx.cmd.push(function() {cnx({playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530",}).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796");});Creeper Explosion – MinecraftYou spend hours mining diamonds and building the perfect base. Then a Creeper hisses behind you and detonates, wiping out both your inventory and part of your build in seconds.Eliminated Before Victory Royale – FortniteMaking it to the final two in Fortnite only to get sniped while building a defensive tower is a specific kind of frustration. Twenty minutes of careful play can vanish in one unlucky peek.Almost Any Boss Fight – Dark SoulsDark Souls built its reputation on punishing combat. Dying inches away from defeating a boss means repeating the entire run back, enemies included, with nothing to show for it.Blue Shell Chaos – Mario Kart 8Leading the race on the final lap feels safe until the Blue Shell warning appears. The guaranteed hit can drop you from first to fourth in seconds, especially in a tight pack.Perfect Perfect Lineout – MLB The Show 23You time the swing perfectly. The PCI is dead center. The game flashes perfect contact, and the ball rockets straight into a fielder’s glove. In MLB The Show, good input does not always guarantee a hit.Connection Drop in Ranked – Call of Duty: Modern Warfare IIGrinding ranked matches only to disconnect near the end is brutal. The loss still counts, your stats take the hit, and there is no replay to argue your case.Rubber Band AI – Need for Speed: Most WantedYou build a clean lead, drive flawlessly, and then an AI rival suddenly catches up as if physics stopped applying. Rubber banding has saved many races and ruined just as many.Sudden Betrayal – Among UsYou clear someone publicly, defend them in chat, and skip the vote. Minutes later, they eliminate you in Electrical. Trust is a liability in Among Us.Red Shell at the Finish Line – Mario Kart 64You see the checkered banner ahead. Then a red shell locks on and spins you out inches from the line. Watching three racers pass while you recover is a rite of passage.The post 10 of Gaming’s Most Rage Inducing, Controller Throwing Circumstances appeared first on Den of Geek.
