When I get upset with a game or a portion of it, I just stop playing.If it's not mandatory I drop it completely. If it's mandatory, I come back to it later. I hate losing my temper, and I refuse to let a game get the best of me.
I was reading a trophy guide for Shadow of The Colossus on a different website and the thread was littered with users complaining about the colossi time attack trophy. Multiple posts talking about how they threw and broke their controllers. I never even attempted the time attacks before and told myself, "meh, it can't be that bad."
First colossi time attack, nailed it, second colossi, got it on time! Third colossi... OMFG I HATE THIS GAME! I got so frustrated I was shaking. I tried it like 30 times and just gave up on the platinum.
I never felt so defeated by a game.
