Never intentionally damaged gaming stuff. I get frustrated at stuff, yes, but I thump the sofa or my desk(depending on whether I'm on PS3 or PC) if I'm that pissed off at something.
Would never hurt my precious controller intentionally.

I've only ever broken PS2 controllers, accidentally. They were either worn down or knocked on the floor.

I seem to remember a PS magazine article about this sort of thing... they had a list of varied controller-destroying methods, like "The Boomerang", where you hold it with one hand on the grip and throw it as hard as possible at the floor/wall.
I have to admit,I am quite susceptible to game rage, but like above - only really when assholes kill me then rub it in my face. Then I get pissed off. Or, if I'm lucky, it'll put me in just the right frame of mind to murder the annoying bastards in the game. (In which case I taunt them back. I love karma.)

Oh yes....about 5 PS2 controllers have now bit the dust so far. I also threw a PS2 out of the window 'The Who' style!

Hm, I'm not that succeptable to game-rage.... I usually just start jumping around, or talking to the TV. XD

Broken:
1 PS2 Controller - Just got frustrated, threw it.
1 DS - I was gripping the stupid thing so hard, one of the hinges snapped. XD Screen went all tie-die.

That's really all I got...

I envy you. =D

I haven't busted anything since the creation of this thread, I believe. Reform, maybe? I don't wanna jinx it. Oh, well. Already did.

Leki crushed a DS with her bare hands. Incredible Hulk right there.

I don't think I've ever broken anything... I dropped my gamecube once, but it was A-okay! Erm, the only thing I've come close to breaking the the keyboard of this laptop. I had to re-attatch the "k" key, which was very fiddly and took about 30 minutes but, as you can see, I succeeded.

It was just the hiiiinge! It was real aggrivatin', 'cause I had to reset my Wi-Fi, and all my Friend Codes and Wi-Fi records got erased.... Thankfully, my brother has a DS though... and he almost never uses it!

A fweh, for controllers... I'm gonna twists my stupid current controller in half if I don't soon beat Sonic Riders. I've come in second place soooo many times, with the opponent finishing right IN FRONT OF ME that it's not funny. *hits controller* It's it's fault. I swear.

Ditto.

I've never broke neither a console nor a controller.
I just curse a lot and shout at the TV (or the guy which i'm playing against xD) but never something like that
