Being hit by a thrown controller was always a risk in my house growing up, but the only real casualty was a VCR that caught it right in the slot door, which shattered and hosed up the internals.

LISTEN TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY AS IT'S INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT!
I never threw controllers because my parents had radar hearing, but like a volcano the pressure just built up into eruptions of flat-out controller destroying rage. It only happened a few times in my childhood, thankfully. I think total casualty count was 1 Atari joystick, 2 NES joypads, and I think a few Playstation controllers through the generations from PS1 to 3.

I broke one controller, my turbo SNES one. I was playing street fighter and Vega was being an utter bastard (as he does).

Never broke a controller as a kid. NES and Genesis controllers were super durable compared to the stuff today. Way more sensors, switches, etc, to gently caress up just by knocking it off the arm of the chair. I have at least 3 xbox controllers that are hosed up in some fashion, mostly from short drops. My two working ones now are treated like valuable glass figurines or something.

Broke a few PS2 controllers in my 20s though, not proud of that.

Vega was a prick, but that game on SNES also had a nasty habit of suddenly turning up the goddamn heat for one random character out of nowhere. You could basically have the game mastered and then just out of the blue like Dhalsim or Ken turns into a god and beats the loving brakes off you. Sometimes it was Balrog who went all Mike Tyson's Punch Out on you.

I refused to lose to Vangief, and reset the game if that ever looked like it was going to happen. gently caress that worthless Commie gently caress

Marvel vs Capcom 2 (the best fighting game of all time :colbert: ) would do this too. I had that game outright mastered. Couldn’t be beaten by anyone in my friend group, turn up the difficulty all the way and play through single player no problem, etc.

Every now and again, the AI decided that now is the time and would go on a loving murder spree. Usually with fast characters (Iceman and Rogue come to mind), but it didn’t really matter who the AI had; it had chosen the form of your Destroyer, and it was now the time for you to pay penance.

There was no cheap trick, no character combo, nor special attack that could get you a win. You would have to do a full reset, and even then you’re stuck with the knowledge that that AI is still lurking in the game somewhere.

My vacation/friends wedding got postponed (thanks yet again, COVID) so I bought myself a PS5 cause I got one of those Sony emails like the day before trip was delayed offering me the chance to buy one.

Bought Ratchet and Clank as well as PS5 upgrade for THPS. Anything else I should get?

Not quite AI but for like twenty years my cousin loving HATED Duck Hunt with a fiery passion because any time he played it all day that Christmas day the ducks were on pixie sticks, cocaine and red bull energy drink. When I played it they weren't too terrible until much, much later in the levels.

I eventually told him that the second player's controller could control the ducks.

Both Spiderman games look really good. If you had to choose one get Miles Morales, looks better and has less filler than the other one.
If you've been cashing in on the PS plus games, Maquette looks good, it has a dumb story though.

The PS4 ratchet and clank game got a 60fps patch, so that's pretty cool.

I honestly just use mine for Wreckfest and THPS. My kid has determined that she is the only person in the house that has rights to the tv lately, so I haven't had a chance to play much.

Terra Nil is a very fun puzzle game and if you play it my only advice is to not ever try to 100% any map, be efficient and do the minimum or you will go insane. And not in the satisfactory ratio optimization insane.

“We don’t really know where this goes — and I’m not sure we really care.”
I've been playing Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC and on a beefy computer with an ultrawide monitor and playing in first person it has to be the most immersive game I've ever played. Also loving hilarious.

I was hunting up in the mountains and I was carefully lining up my shot when I got brutally attacked by a goat, launching me off a cliff and just barely surviving with a sliver of health. It put me on the wrong side of this mountain from my horse and it was a long way back so I stole this other dudes horse to get back my own horse. While running somewhat alongside a moving train this horse decided to commit suicide and veered right into it, killing itself and leaving me once again at the brink of death.

Anyways that [Megan Thee Stallion's Thot poo poo Song] was the pop culture section of the Saturday paper. To join in on farm chat, this week I picked up Sakuna: of Rice and Ruin, which goes hard and detailed about how to grow rice. They just patched the game so your dog greets you every time you come back home and you can duel wield your pup and kitty.
