Breaking Controllers

I need a PS5 then, because I can barely throw my PS4 controller and it breaks.

The edibles statement bring a whole new light to your posts.
Just because I hallucinate doesn't mean what I post isn't the God's truth.
Exactly what every junkie I know says. And I know a lot, I live in Amsterdam.
Wham bam, Oh Amsterdam!
Stone you like nothin' else can!Anyone?
No Van Halen fans? Shame. Sammy Hagar is my favorite musician of all time.
He was far better with Van Halen that David ever was.
Sammy was also fantastic before Halen and fantastic after Halen.

Stoppit.
The first 4 VH albums are untouchable.
I saw VH live with Sammy. Never saw Dave live, but if you read the book 'Van Halen Rising,' you'll see how Important Dave really was to the start of VH.
Sammy is the better singer, hands down, Dave the better frontman.
I thought at the time that Sammy was the only singer who could replace Dave, so I am a fan of his as well. The Sammy era produced the most hits and a more Pop sound, with more love songs, lol
If you ask around the Rock guitarist community, they'll tell you the 'Fair Warning' album is the album as far as guitar tone is concerned.
That's when I became hooked for life. -

a lack of emotional control - poor emotional intelligence - that is what throwing controllers is all about - doesn't matter what the game if you can't control yourself like a wild animal
Speaking of animals, what is the alternative?
Smack my cat? Spray RAID on my roaches?🤪
Toss my new PS5 out the window?
Throwing controllers is fine
mate the alternative is super easy - take a deep breath, punch yourself in the gonads, say a prayer to the baseball gods, maybe etch out a tear or an exasperated breath, even turrets style swearing helps too - yell at the digital ump also feels real good

They're too expensive to just chuck it against a wall. Someone isn't paying for their controllers.

You think Hagar is better than David Lee Roth? Interesting.
I'll file that away with your other out there takes, just data points for myself

I'm not sure that's possible in a fit of rage unless you have a hammer in your hand. Which would be a lil freaky I must say.
I've thrown PS5 controller at the wall from across the room to kill a big spider I thought I saw crawling down. Realized it was just a shadow but there were edibles involved.
The point of the story is, however, it's not as easy as you think to just break the next-gen controllers.
And sub-point, this game ain't worth stubbing a toe for. Only the newbies would get so frustrated. Those that have played a couple weeks already realize the fakery frustration points are rampant and you just gotta chuckle and say softly "wtf, another manipulated outcome by HAL".
who remembers the old N64 controllers, those were perfect to grab twist and snap....i know a guy that might have done that once, or four times.

How about more edibles and come with something more clever than HAL? Or new talking points?

You like HAL? Yeah, I agree with you there really is no better/clever term for what's going on in this game than referencing the ultimate controlling AI from the classic 2001 Space Odyssey.
HAL, the AI that took control of the ship's, most memorable lines and how relevant to The Show game flow:
HAL 9000: This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it. (This whenever a player is predisposed to lose and HAL takes over to guarantee the loss).
HAL 9000: I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that. (When you over-run a base and the player gets stuck 6 feet off of 2B and you hit R1 for all your worth and he won't go back..HAL needs an out.)
HAL 9000: Dave, this conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye. (When you're explaining to the good folks at SDS how rigged their game actually is and they want to deny..deny..deny)

Maybe I'm unlucky but I think the Next-Gen controller's are poorly made. My original controllers left analog stick became extremely loose after a few months. My replacement controller then had an issue where R2 broke and became too sensitive to the touch. I'm now on my third an already feel the left stick is ready to go.

My only issue has been a "floating" analog stick on the one I bought before the PS5 was even released. Bought from Amazon..likely built in China.
Got it replaced and no problems with the replacement nor the controller that came with the PS5.

Bruh - how do you play on eddies?
Love playing after a J but eddies is a whole different ballgame
It's the only way to play through the AI interference without wigging out.
Actually can focus a bit better on the zone (edibles make for some serious tunnel vision). The drawback is..constantly forgetting what the Moment your playing is all about. Heck, you'll even forget how many outs you have, strike counts and all that. But it doesn't 't matter..you're baked and it sort of makes you laugh. If you got buddies watching you play they will definitely fruck with you and make it that much more hilarious. High times are funny times.
However, you youngsters out there..understand there is a trade-off between THC consumption and short-term memory loss. LOL.

Last game that made me upset enough to break a controller was MW2.
