I just won't lose!

    Are you a good sport when you tend to lose, whether it be against the AI or against a friend? Or do you tend to be angry and violently throw the controller away/etc...?
     
    Well, I'm a really good battlefield player on PS3/4. And I'm the type of player that goes all around and jumps every and shoot. In bf3, I love quick scoping and non-auto shotgun like spas-12 and In bf4, likely to use every gun since it's not all superhuman there. I always get good kills and long streaks! However.. after that, there's one guy camping and suddenly blowing off your good kills. I mean I know it's what all noobs do and a different way to play but wtf are those feet of yours made for? You have to freaking move. Also when I play fairly yet the enemy don't makes me angry but I have to accept it anyway because I can still seek revenge on the next round. I do lose sometimes but once I'm good at it, I won't next time. Oh and by the way, I don't throw controllers. I don't wanna buy another :c
     
    I've been known to throw something in frustration when I have been beaten too easy... because it makes me look weak. If I have lost and it's been close, it's been a good match, and I even say "good game" through it.
     
    Against the AI, ummm. I might be prone to at least wanting to throw the controller. :D Or hitting my desk. OR BOTH, depending on the situation. Well, guess it also depends on whether I think the AI is "cheating" or not. If not, then I'm probably just going to be like "well I just suck", if so then yeah I will get mad at some point.

    Against a friend...mmm. Probably wouldn't get that mad, honestly. If they're winning because they're better than me, then I'll recognize that and I'll be more likely to congratulate them than get mad at them. Though if I lose easily, I'd probably get mad but more at myself for playing so badly.
     
    Well, last time I raged a lot at a game I broke my 3DS, so I tend not to do it anymore. :v
     
    I only get mad at League. Because it's the only game I play. So yeah. I tend to not get as much angry as perturbed. People just piss me off.
     
    Honestly it's just a video game. I really don't get that angry when I lose against AI, or even another person.
     
    I normally remain calm in both situations, though I don't really play enough online multiplayer games to know for sure. I do tend to just remind myself it's just a game though because getting angry and stressed on your next play through is just going to make your chances of failing again all the higher.

    Though I do admit if I find myself stuck on a specific part of a game and I've been trying over and over, I do tend to get a bit frustrated, but then I just put down the controller and allow sometime to cool off. :P
     
    It all depends how I lose. If I'm getting beaten by something dumb like a cheese, I'll probably laugh it off. If I lose because I wasn't playing well, then I get really down and depressed and stop playing games for a while. t-t
     
    I get pissy sometimes when I lose, but y'know, it's just a game, no big deal. But when the other team are cheating or hacking, then I get angry. And usually just quit the game.
     
    I usually less frustrated if I can't win, but like in Pokemon, there's no error and I had just smashed my LG cart out of rage. In on-line play I tend to avoid competitive zones
     
    i don't throw the controller, but i mean i'll get mad and swear if i can't pass a level. like today in mortal combat, i lost a couple times, but i didn't get mad and throw it lol. i'm not competitive to be honest.
     
    Whether it be playing against AI or an actual person, I wouldn't mind losing first couple of times. If it happens much more than that, I'll definitely get upset (oftentimes, more-so at myself than anyone else, due to not paying enough attention and care to what I'm doing).
     
    Nah, I generally don't throw my controller. I HATE to lose though in anything, whether it be a game or forum event or a sports thing irl or anything for that matter. The only time I was physically mad is when I was in 5-6th. grade and Super Smash Bros. Brawl was a really popular game online. I would compete in ladders for money and would normally get top 50 or something, and in those matches when I would lose I would get super pissed then do something immature like break my controller or something dumb like that. Scared my dog a few times. :c

    I'm more chill now. If I get mad in games, I tend to do worse anyways.
     
    I only ever get mad when I lose, and if then, I had to have played absolutely terribly. I like learning from my mistakes and analyzing them to improve, but when I have a bad game and make way too many mistakes to even begin counting, I get frustrated at myself. It actually happened this morning when I was playing LoL. I was playing Thresh, and fed like crazy. I tried to feed my ADC by flashing into the enemy and setting up an easy kill, but I ended up flashing in the complete opposite direction, missed just about every hook, and could never line up my flays. I was so done by the end of that game, haha.
