Playing Dante's Inferno recently has been quite the task. Some of the jumps and challenges are quite a pain in the ass.

Playing Donkey Kong Country 2 when I was 10 or 11. I ripped the controller out and threw it against the wall completely shattering it.
...it was a cheap 3rd party controller.

As far as I can remember: GTA: San Andreas - The Zero mission where you have to fly the RC plane all over San Fierro. Damaged a controller over it. Good god yes!!!! I played San Andreas 3 times since it came out and each time I had a problem with it. The first was the beaut. I screamed, swore, threw the controller, cursed the designer of the "level", and cursed Rockstar. The worst was finally getting it all, only to die just a little before landing. The RC missions in Vice City were a pain in the ass but this mission took the cake. I personally had no problem with the flying ones. The first one with the minigun is just bullshit IMO.

Many times online playing Smackdown vs Raw I've been noobed so bad I've thrown my controller and have had tears in my eyes lol. When I finally got into SD vs. Raw with 09, a friend of mine kept insisting I get into the online just to see the noobs. So I finally caved in and hopped in with my create-a-wrestler against a guy playing as HHH. Dude starts going nuts and ends up throwing me to the floor. I grabbed a chair and BOOM! Gave him the DQ win.

This is a puzzle that isn't so bad now, but as a kid I was befuddled by the screen at 0:33.

No Mercy, handicap matches. Profane combinations were loudly proclaimed that I cannot share with you, or you will flee from the room.

Probably the most frustrated I've ever been was playing Pokemon Red/Blue, getting all the way to the end, beating the Elite Four...and then losing to Gary. The first time that happened, I was literally in tears of disappointment, which my parents only made worse by threatening to take the game away if this was going to be my reaction to it.
More recently, the final boss of Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Konami REALLY assumed too much that all or the vast majority of gamers were going to play co-op multiplayer to tackle the game together, because those of us who just wanted to play by ourselves really had to struggle towards the end. Peace Walker whiped the floor with me time after time after time until I finally went on Youtube, watched a playthrough of someone winning the boss fight, and finally, after way too long a time, managed to win. It was just way too obvious that Konami just assumed people would do the co-op, and therefore made it ridiculously hard for single players to beat. It was like, "Gee, thanks Konami! Not only do you drive me up the wall with a hard boss fight, but you also remind me that I have no friends in the process! You're a real prince!"
I was already having mixed feelings on Peace Walker due to its story (which didn't have much to do with the rest of the series, was way too straightforward and predictable for MGS, and saw Kojima at his most pretentious and politically biased). Having that cherry on top makes it the most dissapointing Metal Gear game yet, imo.

SD!vsRAW 2009
That stupid "run for speed, get punched for endurance" system in CAW creation was pure garbage, specially because most of the time, the stats wouldn't build as you had planned (example: you spend most of the match doing strong grapples and your charisma stat would increase). This caused me to constantly erase and recreate caws in order to get the stats right, but it never seemed to work. I got fed up and tried to sell it, but as it turns out nobody wanted to buy this piece of crap. So I decided to give it one more try. I spent 30 minutes in a match doing submissions in order to increase the submission stat. When it ended, said stat remained the same (3) while the strenght stat increased beyond believe (from 5 to 9).
After that I just threw the damn thing against the wall repeatedly and then threw it out the window and never looked back.

Settlers of Catan and Scrabble get me more enraged than any other game.
As far as videogames go, I just about had a heart attack when the controller battery ran out while playing Mass Effect 2, and THE GAME DIDN'T AUTOMATICALLY PAUSE LIKE EVERY SINGLE OTHER GAME DOES WHEN THAT HAPPENS. Luckily autosaves are frequent.

Probably when I was a kid and did a late night session playing Castlevania III.
I actually started yelling so loud at my screen it woke my parents up.

No Mercy during a handicap match against Vince and Shane McMahon. You should be able to destroy them, but no Shane reverses everything you throw at him. I got so pissed I yanked the game out of the console and almost chucked it across the parking lot. Instead I tossed it across the room. I didn't really want my girlfriend to come home and ask me why the game was sitting in the parking lot.

Has anyone been so mad at a game like a certain guy who actually urinated (and filmed him doing so, might I add) on a Bomberman Act Zero disc?

Ah, I just remembered. I got frustrated several times during certain battles in Monster Hunter. One time when I finally won with only a tiny bit of life left, I got really happy winning against that boss for the first time after so many failures that I did a victory run.

Ah, also, now I really remember.
Akinator. Okay, it's not a video game, but it's kinda a guessing game so it counts a bit. That damn genie looks so "oh, I couldn't guess your character I'll just stand here looking solemn and crap" and when he wins, several times, he's got that annoying happy face that seems to annoy every nerve of my body.
Argh. Hah, well you couldn't guess AM, you bastard. Suck on that, hah!

Skate Or Die was the bane of my childhood. It was so bad, I would have a small pile of pillows to my right and left due to the fact that I would get pretty frustrated at some of the challenges and end up punching the floor.
