Ok so if we ever see this kid... boffers and latex weapons are out of the question... i hate when my computer takes this long to load games. I'm sure we've all felt like this at one point or another.

Oh my... if I timed that right, he waited approximately 80 seconds for an FPS game to load.... Can't say that I've ever actually felt this way about a slow-loading computer.  Then again, I cut my teeth on a Commodore 64, without a speed-loading cartridge.  80 seconds was fast, even for a small game on that machine.

I know I can get frustrated with a game at times, but this kid is ridiculous!  Someone get him some Ritalin, or better yet someone shoot him with a tranquilizer gun!

Honestly, it's pretty much how I always pictured a German kid would act while playing video-games.  But maybe I'm biased.

Yeah, that video is so fake.  I don't care how disturbed someone is, they're never going to react like that for a video game.  Mostly, due to the fact that if he beats the begezus out of that keyboard in reality, he wont be able to play the game at all.  Anyone addicted enough to scream like that in anger because it's loading too slowly isn't about to wail on the keyboard and risk not being able to play at all.

On another note:  Improv., yes.  Realistic, no.  Not rehearsed, but certainly not a real situation or he wouldn't be needing to gasp and pant the way he did after some of his fits.  People in a real fit of anger don't pant, if they scream to the point of needing to draw more air, even their gasping has a growling aspect to it.

Best part of playing Commadore 64 was hitting load, leaving the house & walk to the store 3 blocks away and the game almost be done loading by the time we got back. Questron FTW.

Personally there was nothing as C64 as trying to download a game off of a BBS or something, setting your alarm for 6 am just to watch the last hour of download, only to have your parents for some reason feel they had to call someone at 6:45am and wreck the whole download with a scream of "What the hell is wrong with the phone!?!?"

Ahh I miss the old 300 baud modems... not.

I played my first computer game at MIT, chess vs McHack VI in 1971.  At Cornell the following year, we played Star Trek on IBM 360, which was pretty much it at the time.  "Welcome Klingon eater Spiegel."
