Diddy Kong Racing…that octopus race was the first time I actually cried at a video game. I was just a pathetic mess on the floor. And then, one Xmas Eve, while listening to Korn’s Follow the Leader album, I did it. That memory was better than Christmas Day itself.
Bubbler is so annoying
I’m going through the game and now I’m dreading that race.
@@omh20 get 3 red balloons then spam when behind him.
Krunch is pretty good against bubbler
@@StarForceBelmont321 thanks for the advice.
@@omh20 krunch is only usable in hovercraft
Cruis'n USA trying to get through Chicago was so aggravating.
Completing 00 Agent on GoldenEye was meltdown inducing.
As was unlocking every cheat. I remember playing Facility hundreds of times trying to shave seconds off my time
Was just about to say the same after finishing 00 on Switch NSO just now. Whew. Control room is a pain in the ass! Lol still love the game so much though.
I've been playing it recently on Xbox. I got up to the Jungle and I'm afraid to proceed. Control already felt nearly impossible on Special Agent. Plus, I'm already farther along then I've ever been on my own.
The "comeback engine" in NFL Blitz enraged me. You had a better chance of winning going into the 4th quarter down a touchdown than up four touchdowns.
Trying to get gold medals in Blast Corps then being a second too late is devastating 💔
Gold? Oh boy. I probably shouldn't tell you...
>the octopus in DKR
You just activated some very old neurons associated with fear and frustration.
The WizPig race was so hard and straight up cheap that it took me 10 years before I actually beat it.
Same. And back then you couldn't TH-cam how to beat it. You just grabbed the sticks and kept fighting.
Agreed lol love that game though. Still have the original cart
I remember swinging the controller around like a lasoo and launching it down some concrete stairs. Can't even remember the game.
That poor controller.
Underrated comment.
It's gotta be Blast Corps because some a them levels are just so challenging yet addictive.
Boba fett was my favorite character in star wars as a kid and so I found fighting him a pure joy. However, I had the same trouble, so I asked a classmate to come over after school to show me. He did it so easily that it pissed me off and I made it a habit to beat it every time I did a playthrough after that. It was a good learning experience for me, to analyze my approach. It might have been the first game I ever beat ever. I wasn't and still not much of a gamer. I am in love with the N64 though.
King Kut Out in DK64 had my sister and I struggling on that boss for a week or so.
Mario 64 going for 120 stars when I was 14. I was in tick tock clock doing the 100 coin challenge and was still a few coins short after what seemed like forever. I was sure I'd searched the entire level, then I realized I never hit the coin box at the very beginning. I rushed over and hit it, but the coins went everywhere because I didn't catch them well enough. My 100th coin was rolling off the edge so I ran for it and dove. The screen paused to show the star animation as I collected the coin and the star sat there ready for me to grab, then my slide animation continued and I went right off the edge to my death without collecting the star.
How has no one said 1080 trying to land on ice.
I always found that a problem on the PAL version but not the NTSC version.
The part inside the Castle level in Castlevania 64 where you have to carry the explosive without jumping. That part is rage incarnate.
Hell yeah!
Just reading your comment made my brain start playing the music from that level. I listened to it so much...
@@darkjapan It's a catchy tune.
The worst part of it really is the janky camera especially when you have to traverse the narrow catwalk with falling platforms while dodging fire balls from the dragon totems. Then the ultimate slap in the face after you make it through everything only to realise if you're on the easy setting you can't progress any further. It is a sadistic design choice and the one thing I really don't like about the game. Despite all that it is still one of my favorites on the system
@@jeremyscout3464 There's also a part where you have to squeeze through a gear system carrying said explosive which is just utter bs. You have to do it a total of 3 times if I remember correctly to deliver the explosives at the wall, although there is a secret shortcut that makes you only have to do it once. Funny thing though, I never play games on easy since I figure "normal" is the way game makers intended for you to experience the game so I never encountered that. Sounds terrible. This is probably one of the most divisive games for N64, people either love it or hate it.
Everything you said about Diddy Kong Racing brought back memories of how hard this game was that I had forgotten 😆
Same lol
From Rogue Squadron. Escape from Fest
'Abort mission! The AT-PTs have been destroyed! Repeat. The AT-PTs have been destroyed!!
Fuck that level
So much of that game is burnt into my memory. To this day still, I'll be doing something and just randomly in my head will pop up "So, you like shooting Y-Wings, do ya?!"
@@nobel11 when I'm driving and we are on the lookout for something (like a restaurant or a house) I will say 'maintain visual scanning'
My other half has never played rogue squadron so she hates it when I say it haha
Don’t even get me started on the Mizar fight in Jet Force Gemini… one of the hardest bosses I’ve ever fought in any game it was rage inducing!
Rewarding though. Possibly the best game on the system.
They strip you from everything you learn in the game and you’re caged in this small area. So frustrating
@@JimJimmieson the tribal collectathon is enough to put it on this list
@@JimJimmieson it’s definitely underrated!
@@timsdocu yes and the fight is with Juno only, which I didn’t know at first, I could have really used those ammo upgrades that I got with Lupus lol
For me, the rage moments on the N64 would have to be Diddy Kong Racing facing the octopus and Wizpig, the Banjo Tooie doing Canary Mary in Cloud Cuckoo land, and Superman 64's unending barrage of rings and terrible controls.
I once headbutted my younger brother because he wouldn't let me play when it was my turn on the SNES. At least that's how I remember it haha
I once bit my older brother on his shoulder for not letting me play mario bros with him.
I drew blood!
He cried and i got in shit over it
Gall Spaceport was my favorite stage in Shadows of the Empire. I used to play that mission repeatedly as a kid.
Same, back then I just played for fun. It didn't matter if I actually completed the game or not, specially if it was a complicated one.
For me it was the junkyard level. I've always loved ig88. Also seeing who could beat the hoth level the fastest
I always thought gall space port was chill
@@realJimMarshall There's a part in Gall Spaceport that is infuriating, near the beginning when you're going down the cliff it's very slippery and you can go flying off the map easily..
@@Nutty151 story of life in gall. Falling off cliffs
I got mad as hell beating much of Goldeneye on 00 Agent, especially Control, Caverns, Cradle and Aztec. To this day I'm terrified of trying to get the Invincibility and Silver PP7 cheats as well.
I only found out a couple of years ago that there are input cheats you enter during gameplay for invincibility and unlimited ammo etc, also one to unlock all cheats in the cheat menu..
Love it Glenn, you make my Fridays now haha the little things in life
Most frustrating was probably the final boss in the South Park game, the Ultra Mega Mega Man. As soon as its health is low, it'll rush to the recharge bay and you have a second to hit the cancel button which the hit box for it is so precise. The button won't cancel if it's already recharging so you have to just sit there and watch as its health refills.
Games made by Rare were difficult, I remember playing Perfect dark levels over and over because I had to pass them in the hardest mode first time.
I never got passed Crash Site: Confrontation on Perfect Agent because I kept getting randomly killed by enemies from far away. I wouldn't even see them, I would just get 2 hits and die out of nowhere.
DKR: most boss fights
Wipeout: touching the side of the track on a great lap to be stopped dead
Shadowman: save file corrupting on multiple occasions (did manage to complete it on one playthrough and got the extra soul so it's forgiven)
The water temple in a certain game really ticked me off, after a few hours of getting nowhere I ripped the cartridge out and threw it at my cousin's head.
I wacked in Turok 2 and replayed the lair of the blind ones for the 35th time, trying to find the last satchel to blow up the vent. Half an hour later _SMACK_ straight to my cousin's head again..
Next week my cousin bought over Bomberman 64 to play, he got a rumble pack thrown at his head.
Good times.
And today your cousin competes in the Special Olympics.
@@jaylucien669 He's a clumsy guy
Surprisingly, I never had any trouble with the Water Temple, even as a kid. The whole of Majora's Mask was a whole lot more complicated to me. But Turok 2, I never even got past the first level until I replayed the recent remaster on Steam.
@@Nutty151 Cool, I finished the Turok 2 remaster without cheating because they fixed the levels and made it easier to find all the items. The water temple isn't as bad as I remembered either, just gotta take notes of places you've been to use the longshot and that bombable wall
@@burgerthief5333 The levels in the Turok games are infamously humongous, even by today's standards, taking upwards of an hour to complete. I only "finished" the first Turok through cheat codes. The code for all weapons was so fun, you made your own rules and game as a kid, lol.
My nuclear rage moment was the escape of the war section (leaving the beach) on Conker's Bad Fur Day. You had to play it several times over until you memorized where the enemies would spawn because they would pull off an insta-kill a second after their character model appeared. I recall one of them I had to shoot before I knew he would spawn... ugh.
On that part, I know it's cheap but if you keep jumping and running it can be a pretty quick and easy part. Even if you get surrounded just keep jumping and they shoot each other.
The handicap matches on No Mercy have made me rage quit so many times growing up
I remember Bobba being hard, but I also remember you could just run up between Slave I's laser cannons and stand there cheesing the fight while taking no damage.
I wouldn't blame anyone for using that strat. That game's controls are 💩
That's how I beat it, also you can leave the area by dropping down the side with your jetpack for ammo and health
Yep, even after replaying BK countless times I still die at least once against Grunty. Great final boss still! 👍🏼😄
To this day I never knew about the improved boost in DKR by letting off the gas. I dont think I ever beat WizPig til the DS version which was almost definitely made easier. Maybe I'll give it another go now that I know that.
My brother and I declared controller fights off limits after the first time one of us chucked an NES Advantage at the other. Talk about pain!
Ah yes, the Boba Fett battle. I was so happy when I finally got him. I had been trying forever.
...and then he got in his ship.
DAMMIT!
Also saw Quest 64 in the start. There's special in hell for that game.
Gruntilda was a really tough boss i remember having struggled with the flying part when i had to aim and zoom against her for a few hours when i was little. That sense of accomplishment was really good, testing the moves.
Conker's Bad Fur Day... The diving sequence in the safe, the hoverboard race, escaping from the Teddy base, there were *so* many rage-inducing moments in that game!
You make me feel better about how many lives and weapons I used in Bobba Fett.
That Octopus and Wizpig were both super hard!
I was watching a guy 100% Pilot Wings 64 (he is beating all NTSC N64 games, a TH-camr called silverwings21), and he was losing it on a few of the levels lol.
And...I never beat Banjo Kazooie. I got to Gruntilda, and I could not beat her. So depressing haha
The Diddy Kong Racing bosses were all tough, I personally struggled the most with the dragon back then.
WizPig is a brutal boss the first time because it is all about memorizing the boost pads location and knowing about the boost trick
diddy kong racing had awesome secret mechanics just like spamming a makes you go faster than holding a
No way!? I could've used that 20 years ago haha
Wowwww, Glen, you unlocked some real blocked hidden memory for me. I never was able to beat that boss battle in Banjo Kazooie. I think my sibling wasn't able to either. I think eventually, we tried taking it to our older cousin, and asking him to show up how to beat it. Damn, that one was rough. Also, you joggled my rose-tinted glasses for Shadows of the Empire -- forgot how truly hard that game can be.
As far as fights and weapons... we had a few XD Those memes about "Sorry! Here, you can hit me back. Just don't tell mom!" are SO real lmao. We used to have one of these plastic, like, half-sized pool tables that we got from the prizes for the magazine sale at school. Sometimes, when we'd put down the sticks for a little bit, my sibling would convince me to do "speed training" in order to train my reflexes, so I could be faster at video games, and move faster in hockey, and move more like a dragon ball z character... because idk that's how kids' brains work lol XD . And he'd just make me put on my hockey helmet and run straight at him as fast as I could to touch him and he'd swing the pool cue at me XD . The idea being if I could touch him before getting smacked, then I could move DBZ fast lolol.
One of the most frustrating experiences for me was trying to rescue all 282 Tribals in Jet Force Gemini. It was all too easy for them to die in accidental crossfire during shoot outs with enemies, so it was definitely a test in patience. lol It took me a while, but I stuck with it since it was required to access the final world and boss battle, and to get the true ending
The control scheme of that game alone angered me. First person shooter control scheme for a third person game. It just didn't gel with me. And I wanted to love JFG so much and I was so excited for it. Oh well.
On Carrington Villa Perfect Agent, I spent 2 hours trying to rescue the hostages and get out alive. The final straw was when the very last guy shot me dead. I wasn't so mad I could smash a tv, I was so mad that I actually was paralyzed. I was just silent with rage. I did beat it the next day but still have never come close to completing Area 51 on PA.
My brother and I had an argument over who had the best game collection for the 64. He was convinced that his blue Tony Hawk's Pro Skater cartridge was more valuable than my gold cartridge Ocarina of Time. So he he peeled off the label on the OoT cartridge. I was so pissed that I spiked Pro Skater off the ground which completely destroyed it, then hid OoT so he couldn't take revenge. He doesn't even remember the incident but I still have the sticker-less copy of OoT.
One rage inducing moment I remember if getting the Psychosis Gun secret unlocked in Perfect Dark. You have to beat Chicago on Perfect Agent in under 2 minutes. I spent a whole day getting that secret unlocked and going pretty crazy in the process. I remember rage biting my N64 controller after missing the time by a second or two (stupid I know). The marks are still there some 20 years later.
For me there were a few missions on Donkey Kong 64 that trigger PTSD to this day. I remember impossible races with leaps of faith, crocodiles and all kinds of misery.
Glad to read that it wasn't just me with that freaking octopus race in DKR. It straight up made me put the game down shortly after I got it new and not return to it until about two years ago.
Thankfully I'm a little more persistent than I used to be.
Funny story about your friend having no trouble beating the Star Wars and DKR levels. I can relate there were a lot of games I used to play as a teen that I’d get stuck on, but then I’d have friends who had no trouble at all beating them. It was beyond frustrating 🔥
I could do a whole video on the topic it used to happen that much!
The caveman hover board race in Conkers bad fur day was obscenely hard in my opinion.
BRO! Same. That final Gruntilda battle was absolutely INSANE! Hate it.
Another great video!
I can 100% understand looking over the extra boost feature in Diddy Kong Racing; for many people, that was certainly a word of mouth thing more than anything else and it makes a world of difference to that game. As for fighitng with siblings, I didn't have the "luxery" of that on the N64 as my sister was done with video games by then. Great video man.
That story about you smacking your brother across the face with the controller wire made me spit my water out! XD
Love the regular content!
-Mario Golf, n64; Trying to 100% the game.
-Goldeneye 007; Unlocking all the cheat codes.
Golden Eye multiplayer. My friend used to plant mines on all the re-spawning areas...creating a groundhog day of death for all of eternity. Me and my other mates used to take in turns giving him dead arms, whilst he chuckled with strawberry laces hanging from his gob. Good Times. Another number one hit to add to Glenns summer of love for the N64.
I ‘member Shadows of the Empire being difficult in places because of the controls feeling ‘floaty’, particularly the scrap yard and fighting IG-88D. The 3 day concept in Majora’s Mask I also found frustrating - but that was probably down to being too young to appreciate the complexity of the game (having since played the 3DS remake). Maybe it’s nostalgia, but I think games were generally more taxing back in that generation - in a good way - and things just seem over simplified in certain ways now, as though there’s a concern you’ll get bored being stuck in the same place for too long. Whether that’s a good thing I guess depends on your preference. Great video 👍🏻
I remember playing Goldeneye with my brothers, and the younger one getting so mad from not being able to get a kill that he gets up and karate chops the controller's connectors on the n64, breaking 2 of them, and leaving the room. My parents never bought new controllers, so we never played any n64 multiplayer after that xD
Diddy Kong Racing had me tearing my hair out trying to beat Wizpig......until, like you, one day I read about the letting go of the accelerator trick. It makes the boss races so easy once you know this. It's actually maddening knowing how much this trick helps. Would have avoided a LOT of heartache in 13 year old me. Literally WEEKS of hurt.
Jet Force Gemini was one notable game on the N64 that I never could complete, even with a buddy in co-op controlling the robot. That bloody Mizar fight at the very end is ridiculous.
I don't even wanna talk about Donkey Kong 64's infamous minigame where you have to lead the beavers into the hole. I'll have nightmares about it if I think about it any further.
What is it with Rare and ridiculous difficulty spikes?
I remember being really frustrated with some of the races you have to do in DK 64, the controls are not the best in any of them and the AI is difficult, plus I played the Wii U emulated version which improved the framerate but had a wrong speed which made parts like those even more difficult and frustrating.
The beetle races, the jet pack races, the bonus barrels, pretty much everything about DK64 was nearly impossible. Personally I found the Jet Pack races to be worse than the beetle ones. Whenever I come upon a rocket barrel, a sense of dread washes over me lol.
@@Ckoz2829 the BEETLE RACES!!!!! 😡
Dude you just blew my mind. Extra speed when you let go of accelerating button, NO WAY!!!!! I honestly never knew that.
Conker's Bad Fur Day when you're running down the beach out of the bunker trying to get back to the shore oh my God that pissed me off so much and that was last year LOL
This actually counts more as a "Nope" moment than a nuclear rage quit and it isn't really N64-related, but it was when I was playing through Reactive Factory in Sonic R on the Gamecube as Tails. As I was about to make a jump through the ramp, I suddenly stopped mid-jump and landed in the watery area. I didn't actually go underwater like I was supposed to but instead I was standing on water.
That was the moment where I was like, "Ya know, I really wanted to like this game, but I'm never touching this mediocre pile of trash again."
man i forgot about the bosses in DKR, they would kick my ass
The thing with Shadows of the Empire was the Hard/Jedi difficulty. For bobba fett you could just kite around til he stopped his barrages, then turn around and shot at him. As others mentioned, for the Slave II you just had to run behind it, where the lasers can't hit you. As a bonus, if you get the killing hit way high in the stage (Fly above the top platforms so that the ship also hovers high to chase you) You could get inside the hangar by running forward in the brief moment you regained control of Dash.
Getting 007 mode on Goldeneye 64 was my most infuriating times during the N64.
Especially trying to get Invincible on Facility and Bond Invisible on Archives.
Some of the Blast Corps missions with the drifting truck were rage inducing to say the least
I too remember the moment I accidentally discovered that extra boost in DKR🤣🤯🤬
Superman64.
I remember steugglung though his mess of a game. Glitches and all. But its that last stage with the teleporters. They are unmarked, and each room looks identical. While being on a time limit you gotta fi d the way out. Now while this was pissing me off enough my rage quit, through the whole cart away moment, that last gauntlet level,gave me a game over because i ran out of time (again) but the time still said 1:25 seconds left............ That was it. Its going back to funcoland
Slot Car Derby in the original Mario Party single player against Toad is extremely difficult even today. I don't know how I did it as a kid because now I can't.
My funny story is that when I was 7 or 8, I used to kinda sorta believe that I had magic telekinetic powers. So when I couldn't beat TJ Combo on easy mode, I yelled and stomped in anger. Then I opened the door to the Expansion Pak, and held out my hand towards it to channel my angry kinetic energy into it to change the code to make it easier to beat (or whatever the hell I thought would happen), totally ignoring that the expansion pak was not the CPU, GPU, or even the storage component of the N64. Then when I turned the game back on and fought my way to TJ Combo and beat him in one try. I guess I really did have magic powers.
Pilotwings 64 was my first n64 game (For some reason, the stores were charging double for mario kart 64 and those were the only games available) and it was a real gem. It took a good while to master the controls but after you got used to them, reaching the final stages was a fun ride.
However, if you wanted to 100% it, that's were the world of pain begins. I think the most I managed was an overall 98%.
To this day, I still replay Chicken Dive hanglider challenge every now and then. The "3D feel" it gave was such a new experience.
Trying to unlock the Penguin Board in 1080 Snowboarding was a nightmare. I couldn’t pull off most of the tricks when I was younger, which meant it was just something I never accomplished. Fast forward to today, I’m 37 and finally got the damn board yesterday. Anyways, I’ve been reliving all the nostalgic games from my childhood and came across your videos which are a joy to watch.
Like the last level of perfect dark was so insanely hard still haven't beat it to this day
The only bad rage moment I can remember I was playing golden eye and I got killed and throw the control, infront of my dad and then he yelled at me and smacked me lol, nothing worse being mad and then being smacked 🤣🤣👌
I'd have smacked you too, do you know how much those controllers cost back in the day? That's why living rooms were littered with Madcatz.
I must admit I struggled mightily against Bongo Bongo from OoT my first 5 or 6 try's against him. After one of those failed attempts I saw triple red and slammed my controller (ironically also red), to the floor and breaking it. Eventually I did prevail and he's been so damn easy to beat every time since. Whats pathetic is I was in my early 20s when that happened. I vowed never to let gaming related anger get the best of me like that again. All these years later I've kept that vow. Now, of course, I've still thought about it a times. But I just rage quit instead.
I'm 32 years old, and I came back to Banjo Kazooie after 22 years to beat it and have been getting SHREDDED by Gruntilda for about a week now.
Cool to hear you're giving it another shot, after all these years!
She is pretty brutal- back in the day, I was both frustrated and impressed that her AI could predict where Banjo was going, and adjust her aim accordingly.
Hey, here's a tip if you didn't know about it:
Collecting most of the notes in the game (880 out of 900, IIRC) unlocks an upgrade that doubles your health bar.
@@3dmarth I noticed those doors, and wondered what was behind them. I'm like 6 notes behind the first one. Might go back into a world and try it, but on my most recent attempt I was down to my last egg bucket on the Jinjonator!!
2 of yours were exactly the same for me! SOTE's canyon level and DKR's Whizzpig battle left me screaming in my pillow and throwing my joypad in frustration. Other ones for me are level 3 in Turok:DH with all the pillar jumping and battling The Joker in Fighers Destiny but the number one rage inducer was finding all those tribals in Jet Force Gemini and then the final boss. It felt like an olympian achievement when I completed everything!
Great video as always Glenn. Video on best\toughest bosses I think would make for excellent future content
Agreed, Star Wars Shadows of the Empire presented its challenges. For the longest I thought the game was difficult, more or less because I was young, but now being older I still find the game difficult.
However I do remember my brother spending most of the night fighting the AT ST (Second Level) I fell asleep, he wakes me when he finally overcame the boss.
Long hours using the pistol, avoiding what could be avoided, and at the time, we thought surely the legs would be the weakest part of the structure.... imagine how long it took him.
So we can relate. To be fair, the games atmosphere, warranted intimidating.
Episode 1 racer. The race with two paths. You have to stay on the top path to win. Once I was leading for 2 out of 3 laps. Last lap I fell down to the lower slower path. I might of sworn before changing games to something that didn't anger me as much 😡😡
Abbyss, Ord Ibanna
One of the few tracks where I had to learn to brake
In Diddy Kong, I really didn't struggle to the point of frustration until I faced that Dragon. Then some of those silver coin challanges were brutal. But yes that wizpig the first time was definitely a struggle.
That octopus was quite a challenge! Didn't rage over it, but remember trying it many times before finally getting it. To me one of the most rage inducing things is the final boss in Killer Instinct Gold. Fighting games has always made me more short-tempered than other genres. Dying time and time again for hours was extremely frustrating. Then there's the Mario Kart moment, i mentioned in your other video. Other than that didn't really have any. Except one with Snowboarding 1080. Though that didn't have much to do with the game itself, just the circumstance with it at the time. One of the worst days of my life, pretty sad story. Let's just say my new years eve was ruined.
The exact thing happened to me with Wiz Pig, I just couldn't do it and I literally bought *two* strategy guides for it thinking that'd help but then when I was older I read closer and figured it out. I still haven't unlocked T.T. to this day.
I was a fairly quiet child so my mum was pretty shocked when I started screaming blue murder at Luigi after losing on Sherbet Land in Mario Kart. I think she disliked video games even more from that point onwards lol
The first wiz pig race, the octopus race, rubber band AI in racing games, and finally Control and Aztec 00 agent difficulty
Banjo Kazooie, Rusty Bucket Bay, doing a 100% run first time around.
I'm gathering the notes and as some of you might agree, it's not the easiest level.
I've gathered nearly all the notes but i have to get the last few off the propeller pipes inside the ships engine room.
I walk along a pipe, clip through the side of it and unfairly fall to my death, meaning i had to collect ALL THE NOTES AGAIN.
My moment of maximum meltdown in a videogame was playing Ayrton Senna's Super Monaco GP II on the Sega Genesis. I was going, for the first time, going to win a damn race (it was in Germany, I remember) and then in the final part of the circuit, the control got disconnected. I thaught that with the momentum I had it will be enought to win, but the car literally stoped just in front of the finish line. In a split second all my competitors overtook me, centimeters away of victory. I remember hiting the console hard with my fist. The game´s battery became damaged so it was never possible to save games again...but I still managed to sit down and beat it /winning the wordl championship) in one long straighforward sesion.
I don’t really have any complete anger stories with N64 so I’ll say a few stories of games on other consoles. I was trying to beat the Shadow of The colossal donut boss in The Simpsons Game on PS3. The boss is so poorly designed and downright terrible that I tossed my controller on the ground, turned off the PS3 and just sat in silence and anger for 15 minutes. Another story is from years and years ago but I remember playing Mario Sunshine and getting so mad at one of the shines that require you to break the boxes in a short time limit that I slammed by controller on the ground so hard that the C stick broke off. My last story was a few years back with Jet set radio where I got so aggravated at the slippery controls and precise platforming that I almost threw my laptop, luckily I didn’t, but I did write an angry review that’s still up on Steam to this day.
The one and only time I ever threw my controller was playing Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood’s multiplayer with my friends. They were all laughing and having a great time, but for some stupid reason I was taking it way too seriously and naturally my friends starting digging into me. They kept killing me over and over and eventually I reached a boiling point, pulled off my headset, and threw my controller forwards, nearly hitting the tv. I was kinda in shock a bit as I make it a point to never throw my very expensive controllers, but something came over me that night. Never touched that multiplayer again. Which is too bad because in hindsight, it was kinda fun.
Also, Motorstorm’s later races were beyond frustrating. I remember one in particular where everybody is on a bike and I think the track was mudpool. I was going for gold and kept restarting over and over, and the AI kept screwing me over until finally, one of the AI racers punched me off my bike and I let out a loud “F#*% YOU IN THE HEART!” It was dumb but I still say it to this day as a joke lol. Bikes, ATVs, and buggies in those games couldn’t stay on their wheels to save their lives. All they do is flip and I hate them.
@@Ckoz2829 sounds like your friends are really rude, I used to have friends like that and I’m glad I don’t anymore. Motorstorm is just stupid difficult, I totally understand getting super angry over it.
Plot twist: He makes this videos in a Norwegian prison for violent criminals...
The Gall Spaceport level, if you keep talking to your droid friend through the cockpit door he eventually just tells you to kick rocks.
"Go away, sir."
As a kid I always thought the octopus would say "Alcohol!"
😂 once you hear that you can never forget it
Yep definitely ragequit DKR on the octopus. Then after months of trying I beat him in the dumbest way possible. using Pipsy, I avoided all the blue balloons and went only for the rockets. I'd wait until the big straight to the finish then release all 10 unguided rockets right up his exhaust pipe. Do that perfectly on 3 laps and not only do you come out ahead, but all frustration debts have been repaid... in explosives.
I broke so many n64 controllers as a kid...that controller was designed to be ripped apart lol
Finding out I had to collect every single tribal to go to the final level on its own qualifies it to be on this list
Mario Party 1. There was a vault that you could fill up with some resource that was collected at the end of each game. If I remember correctly, once the vault was filled (this took awhile) it would unlock the Rainbow Road map.
I would play against the computer in many games where I would lose my shit over getting stars stolen right at the end of a game and having extremely bad luck at times. I remember being so nuclear mad one time I pulled the game cartridge out, took it to the kitchen and came close to smashing it with a hammer. lol
I did finally finish it and unlocked the Rainbow Road map.
Funny you mention as the swoop bike race itself was the bane of my existence
I sold my N64 because I got stuck on Jet Force Gemini. (Although I did beat Wizpig and Gruntilda. Yes they were a real challenge - but the sense of satisfaction afterwards... .)
I've never been this early to a Glenn Plant video..what a great day
When you said banjo kazooie, I was expecting you to talk about Rusty Bucket Bay. That damn engine room
oof
I laughed so hard about your Star Wars experience. I hated Boba Fett and never managed to defeat him. Thanks for bringing up those traumatic memories haha
Big Ups! Great seeing fresh content!
WWF No Mercy tag team matches between my two friends and brother. One day we had a ladder match in the game, it went back and forth limping holding heads and ect. Didn't come to blows but it became tense none the less though.
The Mechantids bosses in Jet Force Gemini, was stuck on it for ages, found them a massive difficulty spike in an already hard game.
