The five most controller-wrecking games ever

Destructoid writes: "Controllers, the means by which we exert our will on the worlds inside our games, need to be durable. Constant clicking, flicking, pressing and tugging is going to cause wear on anything and, in the long term, your controllers are probably going to stop working some day."

I place my foot carefully on the rock band kick petal to optimally avoid it's breaking. I just hope it holds out 'til the rock band 3 drum set comes out.

Music accessories break alot

My nomination would be in the form of the original Alundra. It's puzzles were hard and it was extremely frustrating. How many times did I try to complete the frozen pillar puzzles in Kline's Dream only to screw up one push just to screw it all up? To this day I offer the same to all of my friends since the days of the original; complete the game is less than 25 hours without a walkthrough and I'll happily hand over my next paycheque. To this day, not a single one of my friends has done it over 10 years later.

I wore my analog sticks out from COD4. Seriously. They got so loose they just hung to the side when I held them upright. I had to buy a new controller. Oh, and the NES controller is by far the toughest ever. I remember my friends and I throwing and nunchuck slamming those things around, still didn't faze them. No way I could do that with today's controllers.

ive never damaged any of my property because I can actually contain my anger

Blackfrican5766d ago

Damage incurred through playing Mario Party was not the result of anger...

FACTUAL evidence5766d ago

needed a spot. I actually know two people who broke a controller over that game literally.

HighDefinition5766d ago

Getting RROD makes you wanta break something, or any system failure for that matter. That sh!t sucks.......

hulk ultimate destruction

destroyed my xbox 1 controller

N4GAddict5766d ago

One of the Dragon Ball games on Gamecube wrecked my controller.

tunaks15766d ago

I remember the Fly Guy, my n64 control stick survived it though :D

GAM3R7l5766d ago

....because of the abuse my analog sticks got from COD4 and FNR4.

At first I was like, No Code Veronica on the list!? But then I seen Mainline. The list checks out, but I would personally put 2 over 4.

KwietStorm_BLM1d 12h ago

I'll take 2 over 4 also. And even without a number, I don't see how Code Veronica, my other favorite in the franchise, isn't mainline when it's the actual sequel to RE2.

Rebel_Scum1d 15h ago

The original RE was the best. Its not on the list which makes no sense.

The remake of it was alright but should be higher on this list.

-Foxtrot1d 12h ago

The original RE smokes VII and Village, come on.

I would be interested in a Saints Row 2 Remake.

Alos881d 21h ago

I would agree... if the old Volition was still around to do it.

Abnor_Mal2d ago

I just started this game last night, just the player creation had me upset. You choose male but they stand like a female. Eyebrows are all effeminate, face, and verything seems to be modeled after a female with a thin male overlay.

I only played the opening and didn’t even complete that before I turned the game off. I will likely go back and try it again, but a very weird first impression.

Huey_My_D_Long1d 23h ago

You sound super weak to be upset by a character creator ngl

ChunkyMonk1d 23h ago

welcome to your average n4g daily user lol

chicken_in_the_corn2d ago

I'm not surprised after the backlash and hatred the last one got.

1nsomniac2d ago

The franchise has been complete utter garbage for almost 20 years. The first one was the only decent game of the lot of them.

Huey_My_D_Long1d 23h ago

OMG Thank you! Never understood how people raved about Saints Row like it was GOATED.
Honestly Janky Generic feeling titles with Humor that tried to way too hard. People criticize Borderlands for its humor, but holy hell, still leagues better than any SR.

isarai_lee2d ago

Kinda dumb they asked for his pitch then ghosted him, the concept sounded dope
