Football Manager Master Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Punched my laptop screen in. Cost £225 to fix. OOPS!!! My m8 broke his champ man disk. He took it out the machine and threw it at the wall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starr_Man5 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 My last PC sat on an old kitchen-table style desk, it was one of those big "Bus-on-a-bench" PC's (Compaq Deskpro EN). I had always sort of half-joked (while being demoralized by FM) that my computer may beat me at football, but it'd be no match for me at kick-boxing. I knew that my new laptop was on its way so when playing one night with Liverpool, Man Utd thrashed me 3-0 at anfield and I duly kicked the monitor off the desk and grabbed the leg of the desk and flipped it up, smashing the PC to bits. I have to say it was the most enjoyable moment of my year and I only done it because my laptop was "Winging it's way to me" and the PC might have fetched £5 at a car boot sale, such was it's age. So thats what I've broke - an entire PC. Magic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skunner Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I busted my head open once. Lost a game to Carlisle and I was Tottenham.

Coopvalho Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I haven't really broke anything in a rage haha... What I've recently broke is my mouse where my desk is made of a rough topping and the ball on the mouse was being shredded while playing...and all the little bits of rubber have gone into the parts inside it. Had to buy a USB one without a ball...cheap as chips lol. I'd like to meet someone who has broke someones face because of FM. I hereby put my vote in to have SI make the first version of FM09 SO frustrating that people turn to bodily harm. Anyone else? Anyone..? No..? Dammit.

Masquerade Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 This desk is snapped a bit, I'd give it maybe 4 or 5 last minute equalisers/own goals/undeserved winners before the monitor and the board it rests on crash down to the board below. Pro Evolution however is a major bugbear of mine. Great fun with a mate, but trying to play the AI on that thing gets me riled. Must have smashed at least 6 or 7 ps2 controllers because of those games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Pro Evolution it's things like players stepping over the ball to allow it out for an opposition throw in, defenders running on to the ball and refusing to realise they're running it in to their own goal (no, they won't turn fast enough if asked), Strikers running backwards the moment you choose to play the through ball and the general inconsistency of which player and direction the pass will be aimed at in certain situations.

Giantplaything Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 I've knackered my ability to sleep before midnight from so many late night sessions of champ/FM.
